Schneider Chat Room version 2.0

Just tell him a deer ran in front of you - that's what everyone says for every hard brake.

 

LOL! Thats what my DBL asked when I had a hard brake. I was passing another truck at night, in the middle of podunk Colorado and an oncoming car only had his parking lights on, so I couldn't see him in front of a big truck way behind him.

 

Back to back trailers today with unlocked tandem levers. This customer the driver is supposed to slide them all the way to the rear. This driver slid them all the way forward and then didn't even lock them lol. If this was any of you I'll see your name shortly when I get the inspection messages

 

For some reason i always get a critical event , when im bobtailing in the rain.

 

A wheel locking up will set them off super easy, which will happen in the rain especially when you get some flash-rust on the brake drum when its real humid out. I had 2 in a 3-mile period coming to a stop at 2 different lights. When I called in to explain I don't think she believed me at first until I told her to look at where they occurred on the map and the speeds they occured at. "Oh I guess you're right" she said. No **** sherlock.

 

I put in My request to switch to bulk in Houston today. Have to wait and see what happens. Pretty excited though

 

Been working w/ the new WF a few days now. I like it the most part, except there is no "trip planning" option anymore. I don't know what to show now for trip planning.

 

Who did you talk?

 

Any info on this?
