I was complacent for a minute on checking certain things, then it bit me in the you know what. Got chewed out because I missed something very important-3 broken cross members (think trl integrity). Now I check everything vigilantly. I’ve missed a few registrations or inspections over the years, but not at the 4-5 month out of date. Guess what? Found a 2nd trl in a month that had broken cross members yesterday. Loaded with 40k, no less.
As for the PC, if YOU abuse it, you SHOULD lose it, IMO. When they cut it back for everyone due to certain people abusing it, I didn’t think that was fair. It’s not for forwarding loads. It’s not for use because you can’t manage your clock. It’s for running around BT for personal stuff (groceries, movies, etc), and if (big IF) you get held up by a shipper/receiver to get to the FIRST place to stop for the night. In the 6 years I was OTR, I rarely used my PC. If you have to constantly use it, well.......you might need to rethink how you utilize your clock.

You should see all the trls at the yard this morning. If you thought it was overflowing the past few weeks, you ain’t seen nothing yet. You can’t even get on the back row. People just dropping trls anywhere. Took a video of it, but too large to post.
It is ridiculous. I think I’m just going to go the heck home. I can’t see bringing MORE trls here. Even out front is packed with loaded trls. SMDH!!!!
