    So much for the duty to protect one self from blood borne infectious risks to health and preservation of same to be able to continue to be a asset to the Nation running a 18 wheeler.

    If this sentance does not make sense, I apologize in advance. I explain with a preface statement that your CDL is a asset. Your health is the foundation of everything to be even able to touch a 18 wheeler and deliver a load safely across these United States. I am a little bit idealistic in liking to think that we serve the Nation. For that to happen your health must be good. Im not talking a little boo boo sniffle or that stew with red peppers that cleared your skull last night. Im talking about Black Death ravaging Madagascar at this time and with airliners come and going to these USA, Im just waiting for CDC and NIH to detect infections somewhere here at home.

    Ok fine, do what wife and I did with FFE about the PRECIOUS RESTROOM. Go to gander mountain with a bunch of money. Buy a human engineered portable toilet with human litter in bags and boxes ready to apply to that toilet for number one or number two or puking or whatever the need may strike you inside that tractor. Presto you have a bathroom now inside that truck.

    It is your responsiblity to bury that properly disposed of human waste in the bags and chemicals supplied by the toilet maker so that no one will get sick, dirty or impact the ground water we all drink.

    Well according to your laws if you get in accident where a fatality occurs you are guilty of murder regardless of the situation because you went over hours at some point in your life

    That's a given, it's called vehicluarl manslaughter unless it becomes a weapon with a willful and intentional felonious assault with malice to murder and kill people.

    Dear OP,

    You miserable mutt! You busted your 14 and didn't report immediately to the nearest weigh station? What are you going to do next? Take a warm bath and watch the rubber duck drown? You listen to me and you listen good!

    1. You just march your sorry, chewed up, bubble gum arse to the weigh station right this minute and take what's coming to you!

    2. You call your company and explain how this whole, stupid mess is all YOUR fault and how you fully expect your pay to be reduced by $250.00 this week!

    3. Make a sandwich board and wear it around the truck stop parking lot detailing how you've disgraced your fellow drivers and should be purged from the industry, and HOPE everyone is willing to let you off with, oh, I don't know, I think 3 smacks on the arse with a belt by each driver should do it.

    Now, you get to it mister!
     
    tucker, ladr, Farmerbob1 and 2 others Thank this.

    They wanted this #### and are about to get a good lesson in a month and a half. I hope there are trucks lined up along every shoulder and off/on ramp in the US. I hope the traffic jams in major cities will make Beijing traffic jams look like a Sunday drive. I really hope this has a major effect on commerce. Maybe then, will these stupid puppeteers wake up and realize they don't know a #### thing about what the average American Trucker goes through on a daily basis. I hope this countries brakes come on hard.
