    I got stopped in Ohio on I 80 driving my personal car. I was going 74 in a 70 mph zone. Gave me an award certicate, but only a warning. I am sure he stopped me because of my tinted windows.....I put down the passenger side window so he could see into my car. I should have put down the rear window too.

    he wanted to know where I was going, and where I had been. Nosey fellow, eh? Told him I bought the car used in St. Louis, when I lived in Tn, and it was already tinted then.

    I asked him if he liked my car, and he would not answer. It is a silver Pontiac GXP, and is a nice looking car.

    Yeah he has enough experience under his belt that he got onto a local home daily account. Believe me, we definitely took his career into consideration when I came up pregnant as at that time I was actually riding with him and he was employed at Werner (DG account)

    Thanks so much for that little bit of info, I don't think anyone else had mentioned the probation but that won't be a problem as I believe he's learned his lesson this one time lol

    I got a 10-over speeding ticket knocked down to a non-moving "defective equipment" violation by one of those traffic law outfits you see on billboards. There's nothing on file anywhere about the original charge. Seems to me it would be hard for someone to be disciplined for doing something the cops say never happened.

    I disagree. OTR is working hard for your family. That is important. Yea you can be home every night but if you can't feed your family that sucks. Worked in the military, UXO removal, and OTR and I have 5 kids. None of them are starving.

    I didn't say they were going to starve or you weren't going to make any money no where did I say that, but having to rush home and stuff is hard to do when your a state away and all.
