    Just leave a note on the door saying you had to take your cat for a walk.

    Well if u must know, it was just an overweight ticket. Costed me $220, which I paid, and nothing on my MVR. I learned my lesson. Reported it to my company and nobody even called me back. So no biggie I think.

    Stop planning your trips. Think of the time you'll gain. Knowing you won't have to worry about that road closure you didn't know about, screwing up your plan.

    What’s trip planning? I just drive until time runs out. I then pull into a Love’s and find parking next to other guys who couldn’t find parking. :) They look over and see they have a new neighbor..

    Creative parking in truck stops? hell I creatively park in other carriers yards!!! It’s funny being in a sea of blue trucks and there’s one red truck just sticking out like a sore thumb Haha. Either that or I find me a dead end street to park on
