    Winter is the slower season for my trucks, so I keep my employees working more by rarely driving my own, and running a heavy wrecker forna friend, plus I enjoy the variety because it is different than what I've done most of my driving career. Well this was winter 8 driving wrecker for him, and the slowest winter for work by far. Talking to my friend a few days ago though, and he said it has been an unusually busy spring.

    I think, ALL cellphones should lock up after 5 mph and Bluetooth only. Can't count the number of people across the line in my lane head down I've seen. It's getting out of hand.

    I love that ride for the scenery however it’s always a guessing game, regardless of the season if a truck has fallen over for a nap.. still prefer that route vs 11!

    Don't worry about cell phone use.

    Soon enough all companies will have dash cams pointed at drivers and drivers won't be able to so much as change the station on the radio.
