    Haha me either. I used to in the van division, my FM was really crazy about it. My flatbed FM has never said anything. So I just don't do it anymore

    The thought of this terrifies me. The accidents you'll have will be thru the roof. Your wipers blades were not intended to clear away gumdrops and lollipops! My god, do you even know what the visibility is like in a cotton candy fog? Let me tell you, it ain't much....but it is tasty. Just wait until it snows god #### cool whip and york peppermint patties.

    Only if that option is activated, otherwise it doesn't need to be in red. DOT guy can hop on up and do math still can't he? We don't turn our violations on for DOT, they'll need to undestand what it is telling them. If you are charismatic you could probably talk your way out of a violation. If you are a dick, you'll probably fet written up

    Ethan whats up? Hows the job going. As for Outlaws they are still out there and I was one for 41 yrs. Kept a couple of funny books and never got busted at any scale and retired this year with almost 4 million miles and no accidents, tickets and Zero government CSA points. That does not make me any better than the new driver or older driver I just knew how to beat the system and as an O/O I did what I had to do to make money to feed my family.

    When you run outlaw you have to be safe because if you are not. There's no way to match up those fuel stops. So running outlaw will keep you on your p's and q's. Especially for those who are doing it for the cause to feed their family. Knowing if they get busted they might get put away for a long long time.

    I always wondered what y'all mean by fuel stops, I mean how would DOT know if you don't have any receipts? I'm just curious cuz I've seen that on here sometimes.
