When I hauled fuel, the Pete had a kill switch in it. If someone wanted that truck, I would have hit the switch and baled and gotten out of range of his pea shooter.
Personally I would have preferred the switch Mad Max had on his Hiway Interceptor in Road Warrior. (POOM)!

I guess you already know,using a commercial vehicle in the commision of a felony will disqualify you to hold a CDL..
Myself,I'd go with some bear spray.. -
You are allowed by federal and state law to posses a firearm in every state in the U.S. There is no law limiting commercial vehicles either. So your wrong on all counts. -
That said.... your right...carrying a weapon is for a last line of self defence not to bragg and a person better be ready to use it...if they pull it...luckely I was/will...Last edited: Feb 17, 2011

"why is it that truckers "feel the NEED" to carry...over any other occupation (other than police)....???
Ok, I'll give you my opinionated answer.
Do these other other occupations 'sleep on their jobsites? No. Only truckers. So, there is a 'self-defense' arguement.
Besides that, never can tell when you need to make sure Politicians and their Mercenarys might try and take over the Constitution and they need to be 'put down', sort of like a rabid dog. That said, I suppose if a True Patriot of the Constitution felt like carrying, for whatever reason, he WILL carry. You can agree or not; I do hate seeing the 'pussification' of America, don't you?
My Second Amendment 'right' is worth more than any so-called Law of a State. I'll take my chances. Don't ask, don't tell.
How many times are you gonna get the total-truck searched in your career? But hey, I am supporter of Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms. Just sayin'.
Do I carry? Do you need to know? There is only 1 way you are going to know. And I'm not talking if I do or don't carry.
Just understand if you are a Revolutionary against the Constitution of the United States you might be like a dinosaur about to be eliminated. I guess some people have a problem with that. Not my problem.
yeah, there are tons of threads about this. Man up. Do what ya gotta do.Bankrobba Thanks this. -
I just bought a CZ-82 today to carry in my truck... will have it after the 48 hour waiting period is done.
I probably WON'T carry along the 1,000 rounds of FMJ i bought with it. -
Nobody forces you to read them, nobody even with a gun. Its a matter of something people feel the need to constantly talk about, get over it. In the same matter as hearing someone complain like you are just repeating what is already been posted before yourself on numerous internet web forums about search functions.
On the subject I don't carry myself and don't mind responsible law abiding folks carrying protection.Bankrobba Thanks this. -
"aren't lunatics EVERY WHERE and NO WHERE is safe..from them...???" -
gun control does not work!!!!!
