    I drove a 53 with the axles all the way to the rear once in the city in a duel axle.

    Drove like total trash - we can't move tandems at my company it's not allowed if your trailer even has the ability they weld the sliding rails so you can't

    When I was at Reddaway seen one leave the yard and rip up the fence to the barn I was at with my own eyes. He took off like a bat out of hell. He got away with it cause there are too many CRST for them to figure out who it was.

    USA truck leased part of our yard at ABF, They destroyed that fence.. Hard to not laugh at that crap, only company in that area.

    I need directions to put a dumpster daily, ( let's walk where you want this dumpster )
    People are so picky about things.

    Yeah local companies don’t report to DAC. All the Foodservice places I’ve been don’t neither does the LtL’s use it. All they go by work history is your w2’s if they can’t get ahold of your work or just a call to your old HR. The world of trucking is yours with your experience now.

    DAC is a flippin joke, Heck i still think mine has damaged tractor unit from Transam trucking. Backed over a snow pile ripped off a mud flap. Trailer still went in the dock.

    Somehow still hired on by ABF and UPSF oh noes a mud flap ! stupid lease operator reported it after i fixed the mudflap

    So they can not document 7 years of accident free driving on my record.. but somehow your toothless hillbilly sister loving arse got a write up for a torn mudflap that you backed over?

    Brilliant. All my skepticism in the transportation industry have just been restored.

    Edit: Only giving Shaggy crap cause I know he comes from a hillbilly area. Nothing personal but his family tree probably has a close resemblance to a utility pole.

    I like hitting trees apparently. Don't hire a landscaper I'll take those branches off no problem.

    You sir are my hero. 2018 trees has claimed 2 of my $50 CB whips. Sounds like you should start a support group affected by trees. I'll join !

    Thank you for telling the world of addiction of trees, you are not alone !
