    Personally it should be a law, that if a CO fires you and your away from home, they should provide you with a ticket to get there, rather than be stranded on the side of the road, which is not safe.. And to the first poster, no one makes you drive illegal, if you drive illegal it is your choosing.. If your dispatcher told you to jump off a bridge would you? It amazes me how many drivers insist that they drove illegal, because their Co told them to.. I have yet to drive illegal, even during this local job, because I can't afford the ticket. Yes there are guys I work with who work 17 and 18 hr days just so they can get a bigger pay check the following week..
