This is something many drivers I've spoken with on the subject have not been aware of (taken from mta.info website, link below) Note: E-ZPass...
Sorry to dredge up an old post, but what about the Astoria Blvd exit (44 I believe)? I've always taken the diversion. You're saying it's ok for...
The city horn works fine, but the air horn does nothing when pressed. I unscrewed the airbag to check connections and nothing seems out of place....
Nice. What exactly do you have it connected to?
Ha! I LoL'd.
Yea some companies are like that (or so I'm told). Thing is, the driver has the final say. If they plan you to where you can't get rest/have to...
I plan accordingly and get the rest I need.
The heavier the rig, the more effective the chock is at holding it in place on level ground. As for setting trailer brakes at a dock, I never...
Try backing up against the dock and setting the truck brakes *before* pushing in the clutch. This will prevent the rig from rolling forward a...
I have seen drivers run over chocks many times. I don't understand it really. If you go to pull forward and the truck doesn't want to move, find...

I hear ya on that one. I won't buy the hose/glad hand/chuck pre-assembled from a T/S because they all have the tag on them saying it contains...

There's nothing "super" about playing by the rules. If I've got an appointment and I don't feel anything going in/coming out of my trailer in the...
[/FONT] Chambers, hoses, *adjustors*, drums and shoes are all part of the pre-trip. You are to check every single one of these on the rig from...
My logbook is 100% legal. Always has been, always will be. You guys claiming you can't find somewhere to park when your 14 or 11 runs out are a...
What's so hard about using the gauge every day? Think about it, how much longer does it really take to use the gauge vs. tapping the tire a few...
I'm a newbie for sure (just about 1 year experience), but I don't agree. I've been running legal for the last year and have yet to experience any...
You can request a female mentor. There may be a waiting list for one, but it remains an option. You can also request a different mentor if you...
If you don't report the mentor, nothing will change. Mine was great. Very helpful, informative, and supporting. We still chat on an almost...
