Just some of the stupid things I see

I agree on mechanical defects . I should have specified on fatigue issues . The new rules allow off duty in a CMV . It will be interesting to see how that works .

 

It will work the same way for me that it always has, except now I don't have to lie and say I was in the sleeper. I figured I was in the sleeper because I put a desk over my steering wheel, blocked off the windshield and made a little room out of the whole truck. It doesn't say where in the sleeper you are allowed to be. It just says sleeper. Since I didn't feel particularly comfortable or safe hanging out in a truck stop, I would be in my truck, which was set up to be my bedroom. I was obviously not going anywhere with a desk over my steering wheel, stocking feet resting on top of the dash and sunscreens in my windshield.

 

Sire Otter, does it count as a hijack when the OP knocks his own thread plumb off the rails?

He was, after all, over in the Hijack thread the other day...

 

I knew it might be hopeless once he snagged you.

 

Shhh! Don't let the other guys at the coop know about this!!!

 

Once they get a taste of Hijacker's....it's hard to get back from the dark side!

 

And I thought that inspector at the Truckee scale just had a "twitch"......but he was addressing Otter....he must have been nervous or something!

 

When is the next chapter of "The Stupid Drive Among Us" gonna be posted DB?
I can read this other junk in the hijackers thread.

 

Injun, I have been told by many LEOs that if you have a curtain or something similar blocking your windsheild, and you have an appropriate sleeper-equipped tractor, that anywhere behind the curtain counts as being "in the sleeper". No one ever specified which curtain you had to be behind, so I think your safe with your sunscreens in the windshield, your desk on the wheel, and what the heck! Put your feet up on the dash, too!

The dark side? Are there cookies? There better be cookies! I prefer chocolate chip...
