Accidents

People in nw indiana consider themselves part of the Chicago area. But we do not.

 

New Jersey isn't bad at all just trip plan the hell out of your route. Pull out your atlas look for the low clearances and restricted routes, then Google map the route look for those tight turns and ramp splits and do a streetview. Also take a look ahead into the shippers and consignees lots with the satellite view. If you're still not sure call them and ask the shipping and receiving dept. the local truck route in and out and most important take your time don't rush it.

 

oh I know Chicago is one of the worse cities to drive thru and especially if you have a delivery then a pickup.they have maybe a half block notice no trucks and even worse with low bridges but what I have done is pull over and call 911 .I dont care how much traffic there is I'll park it right on the street if I have to. because if there is one low bridge u bet there's more to follow same with a no truck route that only gets worse as you're trying to find a place to turn around.

 

Still could have been the delivery

 

If it happens to me I check google satelite to see if there is a turn around ahead if so walk and look. If not I try to get another truck driver to guide me out

 

I said that to a driver while bobbing and weaving there on the CB. His response is well aren't you a f.......n philosopher. I replied actually Philosophy was just my Minor my Degree is in Psychology and he disappeared

 

with traffic everywhere it would take me all day to figure that Google thing out lol

 

you mean most all of the shippers and receivers that have layouts that aren't mean for a moped much less anything else, muli million and billion dollar companies all want it to look so pretty to drive past

 

wrong quote

 

actually it wasn't

Best line I ever heard being a Trooper was a fellow Trooper while working a license check. The driver of a sports car had been drinking and was borderline DUI and we were over an hour from jail so offered to let the female passenger drive as long as she had a valid DL etc. Well when asked if she had any weapons on here she replied "no sir I don't even have any underwear on". The other Trooper said "ma'am we may have to cite you for transporting a beaver without a cage"
