Just some of the stupid things I see

I cannot wait for the full write up DB. Sounds like a good read.

 

I think DB should write a book............

 

Yes, I agree! Trucks turning over--no reason why--yet find out bac of .15--UNREAL!! Not a good deal when you are sober, through the nite, and there you sit looking at the underside of a recently turned over truck--I have always been able to stop on time----Drivers, it is a camoflaged site when you come up on it------SLOW DOWN!!!!

 

I had a truck wreck that had two fatalities a number of years ago that way. A truck had run into the back on another one, overturned on the road with his belly facing on coming traffic, at night, when another big truck plowed into it at 65+ mph. Horrific collision, I was amazed at how far sheet was scattered. Looked like a bomb went off.

 

Yeah, it is just amazing how hard it is to see a rig on its side at night, when you come up on the bottom of it. Particularly on winding mountain roads. . .BTDT.

 

10 guys with suspended or revoked licenses? Holy crap!!! This is what we are sharing the road with.

 

Glad to hear about the Hotshotter. These always bite me when I see them.

Have a good and quiet Thanksgiving. Just got home for the weekend and hope the pager never beeps.

 

one of the strangest i heard of was a guy losing a shipping container on the 401 in ontario at night and he fled the scene as well

 

Could be something bad, could be toll violations... states suspend you for anything.

 

On a average day, the area I work will locate, we will find about 5 suspended and revoked drivers. Today I had three, the other guys working with me totaled another 6. That was big trucks. 4 wheelers I know I heard at least another 10 that were stopped and dispatch confirmed their licenses were suspended. It could be anything from not paying a ticket, too many points, prior DUI's or driving while suspended's. Two of mine were disqualified for driver qualifications. Still not sure what that meant, and will not know until I get their complete records in the mail. My suspicion is they occured a disqualifying event under 383.51.
