    Ok I'm curious how you can tell by his post that he likes to have more than one.

    If you can drink responsibly, and not have to get carried out of the bar every night, you'll be fine.
    You'll learn where to park at quick enough,
    Most of the comments here will be complete nonsense,

    I have a few beers a week and a glass of wine here and there. I expect to be dry for a while once I get out there. Was just curious.

    Why would anyone even ask the question?
    In this day of cell phone cameras, and tattle tale drivers why would anyone risk their CDL?

    Airline pilots have been caught and it aint pretty.
    The prudent and responsible thing to do is abstain while on the road.

    I wouldn't advise having any accidents or incidents, DOT has ZERO tolerance. If you have a CDL you already know this. You are held to a higher standard. Drink at home.

    Some responses will be as if you had said this.

    There's nothing wrong with a beer or 2. Haha

    My Dad is an airline pilot. He has a beer or two sometimes on an overnight with his crew. HOWEVER, he is never in uniform when he drinks and so very few people would know he's a pilot.

    The problem for truckers is that It would be obvious when you see a guy with pj pants and flip flops go into Loves, buy a six, and head to his truck.
