Thanks Roogie.
I spoke with a driver from my yard that was there also. He said that indeed they had just lifted chain controls although some people rode their chains all the way into the Reno yard. We call those people sparky.
So all of you armchair supertruckers that were bashing the driver for not being chained up....
You and the horse you rode in on.
Chaining up sucks. My guess? He didn't want to and waited for the chain controls to be lifted. Lots of drivers do that, just wait at the chain up for the lights to go out.I bet some of them have never chained before.
Wrong guess.Chaining up sucks. My guess? He didn't want to and waited for the chain controls to be lifted. Lots of drivers do that, just wait at the chain up for the lights to go out.
In any case, the driver is a hero with a big brass pair for driving like that, and my hat's off to him.

Yup, kitty ass rat bastards park in the chainup areas and go to sleep. Means the rest of us are out on the fog line hanging iron. It's a real thrill putting those three railers on the driver's side when cars and trucks are going by a foot away.Lots of drivers do that, just wait at the chain up for the lights to go out.

I wasn't there, I was just taking a guess. Chill, man, I know how the weather can change in 30 seconds up there. I ran the Coquihalla Highway and it's the same story there.Wrong guess.
He would not have made it that far without having been chained up.
They lifted chain controls, he took them off, :::: happened.
Ok?
For more of the story, take it as you wish, I blacked the names out.
Props to CHP for putting this out there
Yep. I've waited it out or asked on the radio if it's on or not before heading up.
I'm starting to think RC is the man in the video.

Shins gave a good response to this. Sometimes CalTrans will call the Highway Patrol to come clean out the jerks, but typically the CHP is overtaxed trying to keep up with all the wrecks from dummies in their four wheel drives that think they can still go 70mph.I'm a north eastern driver. ...I'm not familiar at all of this area.... but I'm curious. ..if it is a chain up area then is it a no parking area? If so then why don't the police ticket the offenders to make it safe for the ones chaining up for the pass? I'm sure you have the same type of new to the industry of Trucking. ...drivers that will run the truck till it tells them to stop. ...see all the time trucks parked on the side of the interstate not near a exit taking their 10 hour break. ..fn idiots .
