    A wiki entry is not the final word on everything. Do some research. Here's from your very own province.

    Taken from http://www.qp.alberta.ca/574.cfm?page=2002_313.cfm&leg_type=Regs&isbncln=9780779733576

    It does not have to be done by the carrier. It can be done by the consignor. Not all laws are the same everywhere. So, you can get off your soapbox, or high horse, and go home now.

    Good night.

    Sorry to wake you up, it can be PREPARED, the carrier is still the one that ISSUES the BOL.

    You and I are reading it differently, I guess. There's nothing saying it has to be a BOL from the carrier. By all means, if you can show me where it says that in Canadian Transport Law, or in US Transport law, then I'll be glad to say I was wrong. All I ask for is the link so that I can see it.

    Pick up load, pick up bill, drop off load, drop off bill....

    Write that 1000 times

    Somewhere in there, "Stay Safe!" :)

    It would have an even better effect if it were 1/4 the size.
    More people might actually look at it and consider your message, rather than turning away from it because it is so 'in your face'.

    It would not seem like SHOUTING so much; and a soft voice is many times better than a loud one.

    Rule of thumb.....keep up with your BOL at all times. Never leave home without it :biggrin_2556:

    I can respect that.... when I came up with the design, I was trying to make it wide.... yet not as tall. I will see what I can do about resizing it, though I assure you, I wasnt trying to make it "in your face"...

    By the way - it is a cool graphic.

    As is the scripture, especially for us male trucker types:
    Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

    Never know what you might catch from the lizard types...
    ... and possibly pass on to those wife types.

    That could just ruin your day.:biggrin_25524:

    Hamilton is between Birmingham, AL and Tupelo, MS on the future I-22 corridor.
