Like a fart in the breeze. We barely knew thee.
I was looking forward to catching up on it. But I must admit, it was beginning to devolve. I think some folks forgot to pack their sense of humor... or just don't have one. -
Ron White said it best, "you can't fix stupid."
MidWest_MacDaddy Thanks this. -
I do not see an issue with vlogging, if done safely. Take Allie Knight or Indiana Jack for instance.
Your number one priority is operating this monstrosity (weapon of a vehicle).
Goofing off is not such a good idea. Allie Knight doesn't goof off. She laughs a lot, at small random things but she never, ever loses lane placement. The number one thing to her is the driving.
Be smart about what you're doing. Don't kid yourself, you know what you did wrong and I have a feeling it really wasn't this vlog thing. I have a feeling it was something else, but you're like me when I was younger, found an excuse.
You drive a huge vehicle that will more often than not kill the other person you hit.
I have to agree with other drivers. Think about it and really think if this is a career for you. I have a feeling for a while your only chances are going to be companies that don't look at your dac report. I can almost guarantee being fired for safety reasons will be on your dac. Not for sure, but it's just an educated guess. -
Quoted for truth. It's bad enough going through life with my record and a few pics floating around. But video and audio of the boneheaded #### I said and did... Forget about it.

I was just watching a video earlier of a guy on Cabbage in Oregon... White out conditions, visibility less than maybe 25-50 feet ahead of him... And he's holding his phone in his hand recording and turning it toward himself and looking over toward the passenger seat. He even gives his name. Got half a mind to look him up and report his ### actually. And sadly OP your video was every bit as stupid. Rest assured, some company will hire you. Look for someone who doesn't check DAC cuz it goes without saying, yours is now #### for quite a while.sdpetheram Thanks this.

A mature adult wouldn't engage in the histrionics of making veiled suicide threats. What you need to understand and don't seem to be grasping, is that what you did was very suicidal... And had you killed someone, like your buddy for instance, you would be headed to ####ing prison. You wouldn't be looking at points or a ticket or being fired or losing your cdl. You'd be looking at hard time.
Here is what happens when you aren't paying attention... Even for a split second:
Driver and trainer, both killed in an instant.MidWest_MacDaddy, tucker, Chewy352 and 1 other person Thank this. -
I disagree whole heartedly.
The truth is:
"YOU CAN FIX STUPID BUT IT'S HARD TO GET AWAY WITH IT CONSISTANTLY"

Reason for edit: typoRedRover Thanks this. -
Dick Simon went bankrupt, and Jerry Moyles bought it and renamed it Central. I guess he got tired of it being separate from Swift, so he merged them.
Central wasn't bought by Swift, it had been owned by Swift's owner.double yellow Thanks this. -
He's probably wearing a GoPro. It's a camera that's mounted on your head, and you look like a miner.scottied67 and RedRover Thank this.
