    That's a beaut! Getting a tire changed is no big deal with this company. More of our drivers need to take care of business and keep our equipment up to specs. That tire should have been replaced a long time ago, and every driver who had it was lucky not to have gotten inspected.

    BTW, my little roadside inspection a couple of weeks ago earned me a $25 bonus on this settlement. It's not much more than a nice steak dinner, but I do appreciate it!

    I saw my first snow of the season coming across I-76 tonight in PA. Delivering tomorrow in South Bend. No pre-plan yet.

    I would like to thank the JCT driver who blocked the truck that was escaping after hitting those girls car in front of the Blue Beacon, in Los Angeles, CA, today, actually I was the one who called 911 for assistance, then after I noticed that the driver of the car passed out. I feel bad for the brand new Lotus :biggrin_2557:

    Wow! You didn't get a truck or trailer number did you? I'm sure the company would like to hear about one of our drivers playing some heads-up ball out there.

    Good on ya both!

    I did talk to the JCT driver and he said he saw everything, he did a very good job, the police officer thanked him too. Actually the truck that was escaping looked like it was going to run into the JCT trailer, but it didn't happen.

    It's a long story, but I'll make it short, a semi truck ran into a Lotus in front of the Blue Beacon in LA this afternoon. And the JCT driver was coming into the Blue Beacon, but then he went fast backwards ( looks like he had the reverse in high ) blocking the semi truck that was escaping, actually it's a bad area to be in, lots of truck traffic. It turned out the driver of the semi truck that was escaping was under the influence of alcohol. I saw he was handcuffed.

    Glad it all worked out! The Lotus should not have been there! But the driver should not have been drinking either. Good job to the JCT Driver!
