    Well after driving only 140 miles in traffic from Md to Virginia. were heading back up to Pa to drop our next load off. it sucks that the shipper wont have the trailer done until late tonight so i wont be able to haul it and some more drive time in. but my trainer is pretty cool. he showed the tips and tricks do driving in heavy traffic and down 6% grades. I like the guy and think ill ill have no problems. so far 4/275 hrs of driving but that fully comfirmed...

    You don't know traffic until you drive the cross Bronx at rush hour

    I drove through the bronx once with my car and it was a nightmare. i could had walk faster then driving. It always horrible there.

    Since i wasnt on here yestetday i have to up this some. yesterday (6/30) there a bad storm and possible tornadoes sighting like 40 milesof the reststop we were in. So we set out after the storm passes and we show at the ahipper at 0230. everything is off and no power. come to find out they lost power and the have locks to hold the trailers to the docks. so we stay there and slept until 1100. then call dispatch and took us off the load and said drive towards NC. your next load will be there. so now were here in nc and our next load cant get pick up until Monday morning (7/2). So today (7/1) were just gonna sit here at the Loves reststop for the day. 9/275hrs

    I think i would have told the recruiter from tmc that you will be going to the barber and you are cutting them off.
