Ah yes, a mini vacation. Have to be home both Monday and Thursday next week, so it seems that'll be a perfect couple of days to fix a busted gate in my wagon and maybe do some much needed catching up on some zzzzz's. Coincidence? I think not. LMAO

yeah.......its kinda like this "click or ticket" scam. like any one of the people who pass these seat belt laws gives a crap if me or anyone else for that matter gets killed in a crash because we didnt have our seat belt on. its all about the green stamps........... -
UT fined me once because they didn't like the way my WY card was filled out.
I'd had it for almost 2 yrs by then and been thru how many other inspections just fine. -
AM, I think we both agree there's little to be gained from this blitz. I'm speaking for myself and most everyone else posting here who pose no danger to the motoring public. I envy ya getting to sit home and drink beer LOL. I should take pictures of all the upsidedown minivans I see next week on dry roads. Odds are good I'll see a few.

NO nothing to do with your pot. just truck/ trailers inspections. -
Last year got a roadside insp in AL. no violations. drove 80 miles, still in AL. got another pull over by another d.o.t. told him I just had inspection 80 miles back. he replied, well we do it different here, the last officer may have missed something. 2nd d.o.t. said reflective tape on trailer faded in 2 spots. sunny august day 1:00pm. good thing my windshield did not have many bugs on it, or he may have hit me with impaired vision.

I guess my "junk" is gonna be sitting at the house next week too. But its only gonna be there so I can peel the "mega fleet" signs off my "junk" since they won't fix their well maintained trailers that couldn't pass a pre trip inspect (and they refuse to fix them once a problem is found). Even if I was able to run next week, I would probably schedule time at the house anyways just so I wouldn't have to deal with the fund raiser.

Got inspected last week with no violations but I will be boycotting D.O.T.'s annual summer games cause I just don't feel like hauling freight to any state/city/town for that particular 72 hours. So me and my "junk" will be by the pool. I can play games to
