    The driver says its not his fault yet wyoming had restrictions no lightweight high profile vehicles and such and supposedly only had 2k lbs in the trl…its these find of fools that need their cdl’s taken from them…the comments on the video show how many have the same mentality..no wonder this industry is falling apart

    It's the same mental midgets who argue that they can't move off private property because they're out of hours. "HOS is a federal law, which supercedes local laws... Yada, Yada, Yada"

    Trucking has long been infested loudmouths who vociferously spew totally inaccurate info about what is and isn't legal. It's just moved to digital media instead of the CB or lunch counter.

    How about stop prior to reaching the bad weather.

    If there's a hurricane in route you don't drive into it and then decide to find a place to park in, why would should a Blizzard be any different?

    So let's review:
    The officer approaches the truck driver(using the term loosely here) in informs him he parked into the travel lane, subject to getting hit by snow plows or other vehicles because of the low visibility.
    He is given the option to drive the vehicle to the next safer spot, it the officer will be forced to call a tow truck, which in my view is much more of a hazard than the driver driving the vehicle as carefully as possible.

    And this genius who operates the YouTube channel "Mutha Trucker" for fun and profit thinks there is some level of discussion here.
    I love the internet. And agree with @Hammer166 :

    Whoever waste their time in watching this "clown" should find something a little more educational. Personally, he drives me up the wall just by listening to him, let alone looking at him.

    Wyoming has a pretty good website to be able to check on conditions before you really get into it. No reason to get in that situation.
