    This happened years ago. I always use to stop at Boomtown and adjust my brakes before I would enter Calif. I got pulled around at Donner got inspected and he said brake on axle 4 was out of adj. I had just adjusted it 20 minutes before.

    I crawled under my trailer and never touched a thing. I get out and the inspector crawls under, I apply air, he says all is good. So skateboardman I believe every word you say. Because of this incident and a few others I always stay home during the blitz. Not all CVSA inspectors are honest.

    What are the holidays like here at mercer? I've worked the last 5 thanksgivings/Xmas's however this year I really don't feel like sitting at a truckstop if there's no freight. Is it possible to stay running pretty much like normal?

    Most of us go home for the holidays. Flatbed customers are just not open on holidays. That just the industry
    But here just let coodinator know you want to be home and you should get home.
