Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

We have the option to run dedicated, but plan to run wild for at least 2 weeks or more at a time. Self dispatched. Flexible schedule.

 

Darn cotter pin vibrated out my fire extinguisher and it went off in the cab.....huge powdery mess to clean up.....

 

Been there done that, and yes it’s a freaking mess.

 

I bet that got your attention.

 

In other news, driving on a yard move does not tick down the 8-hour clock, nor does it keep you from taking a 30.

 

So only “driving” impacts 8 and doesn’t count against a 30?

Different company but my On Duty PreTrip also didn’t start my 8.

 

Oh Dang... ... that would suck...
Note to Self: verify cotter pin security

 

Dinner time!

 

Yep. Apparently the 8-hour clock only ticks down when you're on the drive line, and any time spent off the drive line is time towards resetting it.

So that's alright.

 

If only mine would work correctly. Spent an hour at the shop and with safety this afternoon. Still doesn’t work.
