What if it Snows?

I hook both out of habit. The truck had a two way radio in it and the tower calls me with a trailer number and a door number. When you pull them off they give you a door number and a spot number. I could see some dudes getting a lil stressed out because I would sit for like a half hour and then get ten trailers to swap out all at once. I politely asked to not do this again unless they really need me to, I like being out on the road more.

 

It’s amazing how well ya sleep with no trainee to worry about

 

hopefully you remebered to season the pan first.

 

When I drove for CR England. They told all the drivers. When you figure out at the end of the day (miles to hours) yyou will find that a person will only average 50mph. So you are better off driving at 65 and being comfortable throughout the day. Than trying to break the sound barrier and drive at 80. The person whom drives at 80 will be more stressed out than the driver at 65.

 

Of course CRE says that. All we need is screaming red missiles running around at 80. And of course they want their drivers to believe that.

Heres 54.337mph in a speed limited truck. This is my actual number in a speed limited truck. That’s almost 50 miles further. I was able to make my fuel stop and put myself in range to make my delivery a day earlier.

I believe CRE is trying convince it drivers to save them fuel and crashes.

I get paid by miles, and don’t get any kind of fuel bonus. I’ll get as many safe miles as company regulations and the law allow. I like money.

 

My trainer at CRE taught me how to get it to 65. So you havent achieved anything when your still only 54 average.

 

You need to turn 730+ to get your mileage per hour to 65 in a 11 hour span. Granted you exceeded your clock at 11:40

 

Most days for me in miles would be 300 up to 400....on rare occasions if almost all hwy maybe 500. Slow must be my middle name
