    This is almost too hard to believe...

    “Troopers from the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Unit of the Maine State Police charged Danny Olson, 61, a long-haul truck driver and owner of Olson Transportation, with one count of felony theft of services and a litany of misdemeanor charges, including failing to take a legally prescribed rest after long stints behind the wheel, failing to retain his truck’s previous logbooks, illegally attaching registration plates, theft of registration plates and failing or neglecting to pay tolls.”

    Not very bright. Nobody will be able to notice and remember what that truck looks like...

    Funny that it took 6 years.

    Back when I was in the 62mph truck I had a fast truck slow down and follow me before the South Beloit toll booths, as I got near the Express Lanes I jumped to the left lane to screw up his plan.
    He was mad!! Chewing me out on the CB, I’m sure I mouthed back to him or probably started it.
