First of all..75 mph trucks?? Those are few and far between for all trucks. Second of all, if you are tired, there are ways to communicate it with the company. One is nicely with the dispatcher, if that don't work, use the "Ill and fatigue" line. Works everytime. BTW, Spaghetti, when was the last time you drove a truck long haul??
What? You mean to tell me you didn't know that out west the YRC drivers have their trucks turned up? Ah, yeah they do. You see how the trucks are adjusted for the triples between Reno, NV and Salt Lake City, UT or Topeka, KS to Denver, CO. They do run 75 mph, and some of them drivers adjust to display the middle finger when they pass you too.First of all..75 mph trucks?? Those are few and far between for all trucks.

IMO, I swear, where do these drivers come from? I wonder if Mr. Sutherland ever heard of going to bed on YRC, for receiving an illegal dispatch that can't be made to begin with. Not only does YRC pay him for his full trip, but they pay his bed time too. I would be more than happy to show him how to fill out that grievance. Short breaks, when are these drivers going to wake up?
I hear that, good for you.Oh yea but I'm not playing that game.
To bad no one read the article What the Noodle is implying is NOT what the YRC driver said but rather the AUTHOR of this article is implying that about Truckers in general . Once again OH never mind we all know you :Emoticon_digging:
I'm surprised that he brought up how many drivers and dockgirls die every week being suffocated when their noses get stuck in the boss' hindend!
It should placard as an Inhalation Hazard, but some people can only learn the hard way.I'm surprised that he brought up how many drivers and dockgirls die every week being suffocated when their noses get stuck in the boss' hindend!
