@Ridgeline respectfully I disagree that pets shouldn't be with new drivers. If your pets are accustomed to road trips and don't bother you then...
I beg to differ. I see a lot of OTR drivers with multiple pets.
As I look for information on various carriers I stumbled on this site which seems to show CSA data. Is this useful to measure good companies or...
My dogs is the biggest reason I went with Western Express. 3 days orientation then 2 weeks training. Within 3 weeks I was in my own truck on my...
Are the CSA stats at Safety Measurement System - Overview (U.S. DOT# 517375) worth looking at and indicative of anything? If yes Mabe at 22.9 is...

So the below text was on my BOL. I delivered the load even though I do not have a Hazmat endorsement and the trailer did not have a placard as the...
I suppose the expression no pain no gain fits here. But in general we always see construction but rarely long stretch of smooth road. Is that...
What is fair rate for Northeast? I also turned down KLLM today for same reason - I could only have one pet. They were offering 0.55

Not a question but more a heads up for the new drivers. When talking with recruiters even if they turn you down be polite and respectful. I tried...
The extreme is what gets the most interest in our society. Even better if it is infuriating. So, in my view, we are more aware of the idiots. The...
