    It their property and if they want to see or copy your license to enter it’s up to them. If you don’t like you can hit R for “R Ready Been there” and back away.

    if you are independent. You should carry your own workmans comp or an occupational accident insurance policy. I pay OOIDA 144 bucks a month for their mid tier occupational accident plan.

    you are independent. Tell the carrier you lease to that this place is on your no go list.

    we are a litigious society, but ... I doubt you have grounds for a law suit for your injury.

    Nothing to do with driver jobs.
    Have you ever heard of the U.S. constitution ? You should read it but more important know what it means. If you don’t think you have rights or have to ask if you have rights are you an American citizen ? As far as you being an o/o that is funny. I’m a company driver and if I don’t want to go somewhere I tell my company I’m not going there and I will not go there period full stop end of conversation. Once in a while I need to do that. What happens next ? Nothing. They just give me a different load and life goes on without any trouble.

    WOW! You Got Tips! How Neat!
    When I was Jostling Trailers, I Helped Many Road Jockeys (as a Break) Because Some Spots/Slots Were Difficult For Switchers and Impossible For Rodeo Roundabout Truckers.
