Message:: [QUOTE="Moose1958, post: 11427197, member: 54776"]You can't use HOS as a club when not legally parked AND told to leave by the responsible person. This has actually been litigated. You have two choices when facing those situations. First, you get in the driver's seat and drive to the closest legal parking LOGGING IT! OR you can refuse to leave and be towed away. Right after Alabama opened their super coop on I 20 I actually got out and moved the barriers and drive up to the inspection shed and stopped the scale was closed. I was out of hours and dead to the world tired. I had a cop wake me and he directed me to leave. I as respectfully as I could told the cop it was unsafe for me to be driving and asked him to call a tow truck. He then mellowed a bit and looked at my logs. Took notice of when my 10 was up and said he would be off duty by then but would make sure I was not bothered. As he walked away he did say woe be unto the driver that dumps trash in his scale house. I took my 10 and went on my way.[/QUOTE]
