    I think the pipe incident involved a brand new Peterbilt.

    Trucks were bypassing in NM & AZ...not Mercer trucks. Oklahoma pulled me in as well. 3 states I have never been pulled into since I leased on here. Just found it interesting, that's it. Wasn't trying to cause a bunch of commotion over it.

    Weird, I was green-lighted all the way across. I didn't have to deal with OK, was on US-54 at that point, but AZ, NM, MO, and IA all gave me the greenlight. The rest were closed.

    I also find it interesting to look at the tag numbers when looking at the violations. It is also interesting to see what Mercer trucks are being written up for, and what states are giving the violations.

    Just going over the FMCSA site. Lots of speeding tickets in just the past few months, many for 15+ mph over. If the electronic logs you use don't tattle over a certain speed, they probably will if those violations keep on happening. It seemed a lot of the violations were scored at 7 and 10, weighted at 3, for a total of 21 or 30. It doesn't take long to get the score up like that.

    I can't believe people are still getting seat belt violations. People should be so used to using it that the seat belt is latched out of habit while just backing up .

    Ya never know what they will do from one minute to the next. I did count 27 Mercer trucks headed west today. Between Milan & OKC. All flats & steps. Most I have seen in one day without being in Louisville. @CJndaTruck won't have to worry, holding that West Coast board position!
