Backing tired

When I am dog tired and I make to a truck stop, and its a spot between two trucks, here's what I do: i won't even try it. I probably won't even go to the truck stop

 

I agree with sleep being number most helpful thing to recover. I also do flatbed securement and tarping and a harsh schedule. Look at it like working out. You need water, proper food, and sleep. You need to rest in between. Nothing makes me more unhappy than lack of solid sleep. It’s also way harder in 100 degrees like what I’m doing now.

 

If you're too tired to back into a spot after getting off the highway you were too tired to be driving on the highway.

Backing is the easy part, you can take as long as you need. That 4 wheeler that does something unexpected and idiotic doesn't give you that luxury of time.

 

Makes sense to me. You need to be alert on the highway.
