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

Abilene has it.Paperwork in back of trailer,sign a copy and slide it under dock door.

 

Should be one of the QC messages you got when they gave you the load.

 

nope

 

Got it. Now, do I put my mty on top of the hill or in that dirt lot? 1,2 and 5 have trls in them.

 

So I’m curious what kind of load requires you to drive 200 miles before a break? I’ve never heard of that? What if you were out of hours or hit bad weather or traffic?

 

High-value loads. Usually computer parts from Hewlitt-Packard. Or a trailer full of printer ink.

They have this whole rigamarole you gotta go through where you agree to drive 200 miles before stopping, can't stop to eat, pee, throw-up, or whatever, at least according to the little thing they have you sign. Gotta have at least 3/4th a tank of fuel, gotta have enough HOS to drive the 200 miles, etc.

 

Anybody in RVA? Looks like it’s going to be a real lovely place to be today. Be careful.

 

We are down and out with a nasty sinus cold.
