You are crazy tall. I can barely see over the steering wheel. I need ray ban glasses so you can see what it's like to drive 5'2". I lift my seat to max to use the visor at sunset and tiptoe my pedals.

Same as my wife she’s flat 5ft tall 😆 my wife doesn’t really use the sun visor at all

I picked up a preloaded trailer from VA and weighted it. I got almost to the receiver, and a four-wheeler pulled in front of me and not knowing my load had shifted. I got that long red light, and I can see them high-five each other through the window. It cost $1900 dollars. The company paid the fine because I weighted it before I left the shipper. I was lucky I didn't have to pay the fine.

That’s crazy 😮 they are always trying to take our money for some stupidness they allowing 44k on tandems but I was past 12th hole by 2 holes and they gave me a $100 ticket didn’t make no sense

@anthony1636 3 месяца назад

Don't beat yourself up about that. You have many years of Trucking in front of you. And we never stop learning. After 50 years on the road I have had a few citations its part of Trucking with so many states running their own rules. loving the vids.

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

Yeah I guess it’s part of the job some day it goes great some day it goes bad it’s never perfect everyday there is something new to do or learn that’s for sure. Wow 50 year 😯 thank you so much for the kind feedback and I’m glad you like the videos mean a lot to me 😃 stay blessed 😇

Beautiful family. Your wife loves you very much and your kids. ❤ I'm sorry you had such a a crappy day, almost getting hit the ticket and then the trailer thing. They say crappy things things happen in threes. At least that's that's the way my life goes. But karma was on your side in the end because you're home with your beautiful wife and kids. Best thing ever. Hang in there driver.

@Rayzer2368 3 месяца назад

Just a little tip; make sure to check the front of your Rand McNally atlas. The allowable weights for each axle set is listed for each state. A lot of states are 34k per axle group, but there are several that are higher. When you get a chance, go through your atlas because there is a ton of great info there eg., weight limits, lengths, restricted routes, weight restricted bridges, low clearance locations, etc.

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

Thank you sir for the tips much appreciated it I will definitely check it out when I have free time I had and atlas since day one in case of any gps failure or road closure to find ways around for trucks. 😃

I live in Idaho and when I’ve headed east and met a driver, they ask where I’m going. I always reply, home. The reply is always, but you’re heading the wrong way. I reply with, I’m just looking for a big enough place in Indianapolis to turn around. I am always heading home.

Beautiful Family, cherish those moments, they're the important ones to remember. That lady at the scale was nice about it, most of them would give an attitude and or a hard time but it's a learning curve, because I didn't know about either but maybe if you're not sure, look it up.. You are lucky to live in Florida, I love it there, I miss driving to Florida but I'll get back there soon. I've been to that drop yd/ house. So do you think Prime will have you pick up at Tropicana or Budweiser after your hometime 😅 anyway, like your videos, enjoy your hometime, stay safe, stay blessed and keep doing a great job my friend 💪👍

Hey sir much appreciated for the kind words yeah the lady was nice actually. I love living in Florida. I actually dead headed to Pierson flower warehouse grab empty and headed to bloomingdale Georgia to grab load and ran it to Tennessee. Stay safe 🙏

@tedhill7017 3 месяца назад

FL gives you quite a bit more on your tandems. They got you for being over on bridge. Get yourself a Motor Carriers Road Atlas it will have all that information in it. That way you can check weight limits and bridge laws for every state you’ll be traveling through. Unless GA has changed they do not have a bridge law but you can only have 34,000 on your tandems.

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

I got a motor carrier atlas thank you for the tips 🤝 yeah I just balanced the weights properly and didn’t know you’re allowed to have so much on the tractor tandems or trailer tandems 🤷‍♂️

Hello thanks 🙏 for the questions It’s for narrow roads bridges and bridge weights

@charlesmoore8997 3 месяца назад

At least overweight tickets don't affect PSP scores, fyi Nc allowes you 38000 on axles and SC allows 35,200 you just can't extend the trailer tandems too far back, dont beat yourself up, things happen, enjoy the vacation.

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the info much appreciated it. Yeah stuff happens I always try and stay positive but that was a bad day. I guess once I’m a long while you have them bad days for sure. Thank you 🤝 😃

@mannydevqs 3 месяца назад

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

Yeah it was very shocking when she told me the weights allowed on each axel as long as you’re not over gross you’re allowed to have up to 44k on drives or trailer and 22k on steers

@Drivingwithchris 3 месяца назад

Just so you know you can find that kind of information in a ran McNally Atlas

@VTGalinAZ 3 месяца назад

Actually you had a good day because you avoided an accident and you're learning experience only cost $100. When you get to my age, you have the attitude: if it's not going to matter in 5 years, forget it. Stupidity? Can't judge yourself if you didn't have the information to make the correct decision. Safe travels, looking forward to video of your vacation with your family.

I usually get a fuel surcharge rate for each load and I typically follow that we get recommended fuel stops too and I delivered a load and didn’t get fuel right after since I was ready to head home I just went straight to pick up the other load and deliver the load ASAP

This makes no sense.. Why didn't you weigh before you got there or know the rules in the state you're driving? If they overloaded you, why didn't you go back to the shipper? Why are you placing yourself in this situation?? Sorry, I don't get this at all... dude... ???

@RunningOTR 3 месяца назад

They over loaded it on trailer, butit was fine when I slid it back for state of Georgia the weight were all legal coming into Florida I didn’t know you’re allowed up to 44k on trailer it was totally fine for any other state besides florida so my tandems were 2 holes back past 12th hole which is max for Florida

@arraxarnold616 2 месяца назад

Yep florida allow you to be up to 44 on one axle but georgia you cant go over 34200

@KarenSecor-yw7tc 2 месяца назад

I didn't know you could overload the trailer in FL. News to me. Bur I try and balance so every state is legal. It's very unlikely I would do any changes along my route.
