    Thanks. I picked in Carlisle and headed to Kirkwood. Paid miles is 469 actually is 580. Doesn't seem fair Bad week only 1500 miles with this trip. Had an ABS trailer problem that took 2 day to fix.

    That's on 80 tho. Kirkwood is on 50 south of tahoe. Hence his question.

    I found during the off season, Now, we can park in one of the large parking lots up there. Its a ski resort town so they have the parking. Saves me from.driving 2 hours in the morning.

    So I delivered in Kirkwood CA and was routed down CA 88. After the CHP stopped and informed.me.that the 88 is restricted to 65 feet. I was 69. So he shut me down and we had to have a day cab come down and take the trailer down to the non restricted area. The bad thing is that route it not marked for restrictions and I couldn't find anything that said it was. The cop told me there is no signs, it is something I should have just known. Well got a ticket. And I was following g routing. After I was dealing with my DM. He sends me a message and tell me they just found out it is restricted. And I delivered in a restricted area. And apparently the 40 other 70 foot trucks passing me while I was getting a ticket didn't know either
