I've done them a few times. However it was around 2am and nobody else on the road.
Garmin just released new otr model too.
You'd think a train carrying millions of dollars worth in cargo would redesign portions of railroad entry so this doesn't happen. Was there any...
Pretty sure they know when to get over. I don't really see the point in it or how its helpful. Some trucker going 75mph blowing past me doesn't...
Why? Some truckers make a ton of money and are gone often. Seems like a dream scenario for some women
Been out otr for 2 years and never had a knock on my door. I didn't know it was even still a thing.

Here is a video of a 5 year old driving a manual transmission. Liveleak.com - Trucker Kid Sorry man, it's not a barrier to entry and it's not...

Parking is only stressful if you're trying to shut down after 6PM in a high volume area. Sometimes its better to shut down early rather than...
What exactly did you do
Garmin + Google satellite view. Never touched the Atlas since I've been out. I use satellite view to see how to get in the shipper, how to setup...
I guess semi was riding in the left lane a little too long.
Never. I always get under and look to make sure the locking jaw is completely around the kingpin. A dropped trailer on the interstate can kill...
Yep. Every peterbilt I've seen loves speeding and tailgating. They think they own the hammer lane.
