    On my way to St. Louis.
    They canned my plan out of there...
    If they send me too close to Ferg, I'm out.

    I think ferguson is just over the bridge west from pontoon beach. lol you can run that big truck right on thru...just say you got lost. I remember that driver getting beat down when the king riots were happening in LA, he got jacked up big time.

    Yes, but I'm taking no chances. These guys got me going in. Then they canceled my load out.
    Its a DH, so 10 mins is all I'm staying.
    If no pp out, I'm picking a direction and just going.
    F it.

    you seriously have a load into ferguson? I can't imagine that Illinois is affected. i think the protests are very localized.

    I was about 5 miles away on Sunday. Didn't see or hear anything out of the ordinary. Like blue said it's very localized and only at night. Nothing to worry about.

    The core may be local, but all surrounding areas are affected even in small ways.
    I'm at the J Pontoon Beach and the riots are all they wanna talk about today.

    Taking 0 chances here.
    Got my canned load back. Now I'm out ta here.

    headed out in the morning, dont know where yet, have had two students call me...told my fleet manager I need a three person condo and I will train them both, of course for double the money. they got it fixed.

    heres a link to a post I put up in the experienced drivers thread regarding the meritor trailer tire inflator system. May give you some easy insight in the event you ever encounter any situations with it. These would be the newer vans with the white light on the left front nose of the trailer.
