Stuck in Reno, what would you do?

They do tend to appear to be in a hurry.....at 62!

 

I don't get paid to chain either. Sort of indirectly though, because I got the load there timely and am available for the next load compared to the driver who is still sitting back there playing Headshot waiting for Spring. Make it easy on yourself, should take no longer than 5 minutes per tire to chain up, rain pants, knee pads, rubberized insulated gloves, done and down the road.

 

One word...casino.

 

Wanna bet?

 

If you were to check out the various "chain threads"....you would find some good, decent reasons on both sides of the argument of whether to chain or not.

The general consensus is that those of us from the West, having grown up with chains, do it without issue. But drivers from the East, not being required to chain...don't see the need and will wait out the chain law. It really isn't a big deal either way....if a driver isn't comfortable driving in those conditions, there is no good reason to force them to drive when they aren't comfortable. Actually, that would make it just more dangerous if they were forced to do something they don't like!

 

Why not?????

 

OK....I'll deal!

On second thought, if I was stuck in Reno I'd find a Craps game 7 11 Pass Line on the Come Out Roll all night long baby, Let It Ride daddy needs a new pair of shoes.
