Someone got owned by our resident "dumb" guy.
SWEET!!!!!!What I find funny is if your under 55 mph you can tailgate all day long a never get a recording.
I see your vacation from truckingboards did nothing for your ignorant shenanigans. Still bring nothing to the topic at had but emojis and lol's. Maybe it wasn't long enough.Someone got owned by our resident "dumb" guy.

Not sure how I missed this one but....no, my assumptions have been right all along, and over time the facts have seemed to back up those assumptions.I don't really want to embarrass you in front of your peers. You don't know me, although we may have met. Who knows, but you may want to ask Red about the risk of making assumptions about someone, without all of the facts.
Do I need to rewind the tape, for the class to see it again? I seem to recall a certain someone being convinced that I didn't work here... An assumption made without knowing all the facts.Not sure how I missed this one but....no, my assumptions have been right all along, and over time the facts have seemed to back up those assumptions.
Tailgating is the act of driving on a road too close to the vehicle in front, such that the distance between the two vehicles does not guarantee that stopping to avoid collision is possible.
The safe distance for following another vehicle varies depending on various factors including vehicle speed, weather, visibility and other road conditions. Some jurisdictions may require a minimal gap of a specified distance or time interval.
Yes according to your math....and a dictionary it is tailgating.....
Now you're assuming I was referring to you...Do I need to rewind the tape, for the class to see it again? I seem to recall a certain someone being convinced that I didn't work here... An assumption made without knowing all the facts.
It would be off topic, but you know I can show you that one, as well as a list of others. Are you asking for it? Again?
This problem is facing everyone who doesn't already run ELD's. Speedy is still running paper logs because they have yet to find anything satisfactory for their needs that doesn't cost them or their owner/operators an arm and a leg. They are hoping to engage one of the mobile apps like Rand McNally or JJ Keller to keep costs down as they already issue all trucks a mobile device for tracking, communication, dispatch and shipment P&D.It is my understanding, the delay/pause in the roll out is more technical in nature. Ability of the vendor to acquire and provide accurate, consistently reliable info, seems to be the key, rather than any change to the established criteria.
Speedy is still exclusive to a Holland nobody else gets the freight. Detroit yard is under construction due too many of you guys coming thru at one time.This problem is facing everyone who doesn't already run ELD's.

Losing NPME and ODFL, long time transborder customers, to competitors very nearly killed Speedy last year. They've recovered via increased domestic volume, but it has delayed their ability to roll out ELD's. And if I'm right, Dicom (the carrier that swiped NPME) is probably courting Holland too. Speedy's biggest customer.
Things like these, combined with demands on suppliers, is really throttling the rollout of ELD's everywhere. Fortunately, at least for now, Canadian carriers only have to equip trucks that cross the border. Our ELD proposal is at least a year behind.
I noticed that they're clearing the land out back. Does the Dicom trailer I've seen there come from Buffalo?Speedy is still exclusive to a Holland nobody else gets the freight. Detroit yard is under construction due too many of you guys coming thru at one time.
Night driving is no fun either, we get all the drunks and tired driversI'm a little confused why some on here think 3 seconds is even better, hell let's just cut the trucks to 45 mph while we are at it.
I drive a day run and I seem to spend most of my day in heavy traffic backing off just to accomplish the 2 second rule Everytime a big truck fills the gap and it's going 1 miles a hour faster.. city traffic always takes the gaps up and your already cut back to not enough power to overtake a vehicle doing 60 in front of you because the passing lane is doing 80.
Hey it's there trucks but soon we will be the problem not the solution on the road.
I have no problem with all of this if they would let us do what the speed limit is.
Drivers at night don't have this problem as much a it is on day runs
Yes it could be not 100% sure. We run a lot of freight between points so trailer could've got caught in mix.I noticed that they're clearing the land out back. Does the Dicom trailer I've seen there come from Buffalo?
Well, if Dicom isn't sending them to Detroit, I can only assume New Penn is passing them along in Buffalo. They don't belong to NPME so I doubt they care what Holland does with them or if they even get them back.Yes it could be not 100% sure.

I think that's what new penn is doing instead of swinging load. When I was on open board and went thru Detroit and was running empty out of their I would search yard for ours but mainly speedy was the emptys out their so off with a speedy I go. You do see speedy down south like you used to and so someone must have put a stop to it.Well, if Dicom isn't sending them to Detroit, I can only assume New Penn is passing them along in Buffalo.

On a side note, I've only ever pulled a Holland trailer out of Detroit once. Either you guys are getting better at giving us our trailers back or I've just had some strange luck. I know Toronto won't load a Detroit on a Speedy any newer than about 2006 if they can help it because otherwise they won't see them for months. Especially the brand new roll door trailers.
I definitely see almost as many of ours as yours there these days. I see about 1/4 of your trucks coming and going with our trailers, but it's usually one for one in and out.I think that's what new penn is doing instead of swinging load.
