    Make it fun for yourself and DOT when you chain-up.....
    Use adult language while chaining....I find it makes the DOT leave real quick to go mess with Swift or CRE drivers.....[​IMG]

    The Fine for not chaining and subsequently blocking the highway is $1,000, plus a $313 surcharge.
    :biggrin_25514: Plus the additional amount of $ the nice people from the TOW TRUCK COMPANY charge you if their SERVICES are needed
     
    Big Don Thanks this.

    Three sisters. Teach me & others make me go slow. I'm late, but my truck is not bent up. and the freight is here. Get over it. Safety over Profit, every time. Dispatch you can't rush a elevator or me. I don't bend my Truck up.

    Not worth it considering chains are cheaper.
