If I was you I go to a weight station drop it off leave a note for the next guy they try to screw over.
call the receiver and let them know what's going on then last but not least call the company and let them now everything and tell them where its at and leave.
Second thing I would do is look for a place I could rent a car, drive home and look for the next job

I'm sure you figured out by now why the truck got abandoned.

I like the park it idea but I've spent a week and a half doing this and probably won't get paid.

I'm starting to think of places in Detroit to park this truck any ideas?

I guess I shouldn't worry about an illegitimate company putting anything on my DAC report for an abandoned truck right?

These guys didn't even drug test me they've asked me to run past every weigh station and I refuse to do anything that will put my CDL in jeopardy.

Should I just go home and chalk this up as a life lesson and be grateful I haven't spent any money on it?

Oregon probably got the other driver for violation & that's why it was abandon.

I think you should try and sue the company when this is over. For what? I don’t know. They are very bad people.

That is ridiculous! Run far away from that mess before you have way worse on your record than a vehicle abandonment.

This is going to sound stupid but I took a job with an Auto Transport company ran by some Russians.

At first I thought everything was on the up-and-up they paid for me to fly out to Oregon to pick up a truck that was abandoned by a previous driver.

Today at the Illinois weigh station on I-95 heading east I was stopped for an inspection.

I was given three violations one for the tags being expired one for the ifta tags not belonging to the company and another for no IRP on a truck registered at 38000 lb GVWR.

The officer took pity on me and did not issue a citation but he did inform me that continuing to operate this truck having been notified of the violations would get me in a lot of trouble and the truck impounded.

The delivery they have me going to is in New York the truck does not have NY Hut stickers.

What should I do I'm over 2000 miles from home with no way to get there.

I'm at a complete loss and I appear to be driving for a company that is less than legitimate.

Here is the copy of the violations because quite frankly I don't care if anyone sees them

Keep that copy; you may need it during your next job interview.
