    Pulling a 40-ft gooseneck trailer and I'm out of class. Need a driver for about 6 hours to deliver to Rocklin (15 minutes east of Sacramento) and Cotati (8.5 miles north of Petaluma) starting from Chowchilla. Text or call for more info. Deleted

    Yea but here is the kicker. If you drive said unit. You must be an employee or contractor with said company.
    So that means a drivers file needs to be done, drug test with results back before legally driving said truck. You see how this favor can bite you the friendly greedy driver... just saying
    Oh and be insursed by his insurance company.

    I am just pointing out about these hotshot guys who try and skirt the rules, then cry worse than a little school girl about how unfair they got caught
    I hope penalties are involved over late delivery of that ld. Wonder if they even have proper documentation and insurance

    99% sure you can work under 30 days in 1 year for someone...legally..with none of that. This isn't the first time this has happened. A driver can drive it.
