I didnt drive much for a few years and had the same worries, but never had a problem. Definitely let them know you might be a little rusty. I have...
Heck Im greatful if I just get so much as a physical address, and try to always call the receiver when loaded with an ETA.
Yup, and thats what I use for an alarm clock, cell phone next to pillow in sleeper.
Yup when I hear people bragging about Blue bird I just bite my lip! Find yourself a nice outfit with 200 or less trucks and put this crap behind...
Yup, Pudwiper is the American beer that has rice in it!
Your probably mostly seeing new drivers getting trained, although there are some teams. You likely wont see teams doing POV's (private vehicles)...
The worst thing about OTR trucking IS that you are not home much! If you like driving, and can find something better to do than just stare out the...
Pulled mostly Cotrell trlrs, rarely anything over 3 yrs old including the tractor. This was the late 90's so Im sure there are probably new tech...
Yeah, I drove for Beartooth, and URS for about 6 yrs combined. Car haulers get to replace windows when dumb freight haulers jump back in front of...
Im in Washington state, around here the log trucks head for the woods around 3:00 AM, most of them are home by 5-6:00PM, I always used to beat the...

That used to be common courtesy! And sometimes the driver behind you would go ahead and let you know he was gonna head into the TS for a few...
I hear you bro! Most trucks these days aren’t built for drivers, they are built for cheap mega renters who don’t own nothing outright other than...
I was kind of thinking the same thing! You don't feather the clutch on a big truck like you do on a 4 wheeler. Seems like it would be easier to...
If I had my choice between waiting in line behind a driver energetic enough to clean the nose and headlights of his truck. Or, waiting in line...
I have been keeping an eye out for updates, haven’t found much info about the condition of the Driver other than "he is in serious condition" Here...
Probably 1 out of 100, 4 wheelers stupid enough to park on the tracks, and this one has a CDL!
That was just a trucking outfit I found when I googled "ALA", I also looked it up on safer web and wow, pretty scary! Looks like the truck (2007...
