    We dont use chains at all. Its usually sudden braking or maneuvers that put vehicles into a world of hurt….My Jake is always on,,,would only shut it off if I were on WET ice. \
    LACK OF ATTENTION put this guy upside down Wednesday night…the roadway was dry when he pulled this stunt all by his lonesome 1A87E368-7ED4-4916-97E4-B0AF646106CB.jpeg

    I've been reading some of your posting on thetruckersreport
    young lady, and its what you say, and how you say it, that shows good experience. not sure how long you been driving, but it shows you know what your doing, and as time goes by, you`ll get even better. driving on ice 150 days a year, your a better driver than I on ice. there are a lot of companies that would like to hear from you. keep up the great trucking.

    Was driving local daily. On this day. I decided to give it a try. Slid right by the gravel road to my first customer. Decided to call it a day and park it. Ice fog.
