This cop can seriously mess up your day if he feels like it. The driver COULD have been cited for the missing sticker. By the way, the driver is responsible for all the truck/trailer/load, and qualification docs being in order. The missing sticker......That's on the driver.

I was trucking for 9 years. These types of stops were one if not one of the main reasons I got out. I was tired of the pigs nitpicking. I never had a clean inspection. They always found something. No matter what I did and how good I had the truck. They always found something. We are just trying to make a living and get home alive and we have to deal with stupid hall moniters.

@duradim1 Год назад

Besides your derogatory remark about law enforcement, I agree that we as a nation over regulate, over inspect, and over charge truck drivers, as well as so many others, in our zeal to be safe and whatnot. Our country is literally cursed by God, Himself, and we are falling.

@jvmiller1995 Год назад

I was a driver for years and am even a million mile driver club member. When E- logs came I left. I would bet like real money if you did a real study on it that the hours of operations the rules have caused as many or more accidents than they prevent. For example....You drive a few hours to pick up your load but it takes 4 to 5 or 6 hours to load. Then you can't log it as sleep because one split sleeperbirth never works out but two, besides maybe they they told you to listen to the radio for your turn to back into the 400 dock doors at a Walmart or Costco distribution center. So now it goes against your total hours for the day. Now you finally get called to the doc but 4 hours later so you take a small nap and two hours later you are on the road again. Then you hit a huge traffic jam that takes several 3 to 4 hours or more to clear. Now just a few more miles down the road after you finally clear that you are out of hours and have to pull over. So you have to log off duty. But you set in the sleeper staring at the ceiling and can't sleep for 7 1/2 hours as you took a few hours nap waiting to get loaded. You finally go to sleep and 3 hours later the alarm goes off because your 10 is up. Now you have interrupted the Rem sleep, This is the most crucial part of sleep that really resets the brain. But you can't stay and sleep because your idiot dispatch has you delivering in 11 hours from now and it is a 10 hour drive. So you are now driving without a proper night's rest in order to make delivery. Driving a truck our sleep times are all over and dictated by the log book and not your body and it is really impossible to develop a pattern as it always changes. When what you could of did instead is after getting out of the hell traffic jam and then when your hours was up but not tired yet you could of drove another 6 or 7 hours until you was tired and took a 8 to 10 hour break and got some real and meaningful sleep and woke up and drove a few hours to make a delivery. See the problem is like everything the Government does the folks writing the laws have no experience in the field they are regulating. Just because a few idiot drivers want to run 20 hours a day on 3 hours of sleep they assume we all need baby setting and told what hours to work... I use to run two log books and could move my hours around so I could make money and still be safe. I never fell asleep at the wheel. When I seen E logs coming I decided to hang it up.. Sorry to rant you seem like you get it and you hit a nerve so I thought I would let the want to be truck drivers know too.

@@ceelos69 I submit to you that the cop doesn't know his job. Asking for the passenger's ID is not part of his job.

And further, he has ZERO right to her driver's license as a cop cannot legally require a person to produce a license for an activity in which they aren't presently engaged. Also, my experience differs from yours in that it hasn't been my experience that cops keep bad drivers off the road. It has been my experience that they are taxmen who destroy lives unnecessarily with a dogged determination to follow somebody's orders. They do anything EXCEPT defend our Constitutional rights as they've sworn to do. Ask a cop next time you see him what the 8th amendment is. If he can't tell you, then he doesn't remember his oath, and what kind of man is that?

If you are in a commercial vehicle, a police officer can ask for an ID even from a passenger.

However, even if none of this applies, why wouldn’t you comply with a request from a police officer. Be polite and help to make his job a little easier.

This is far from harrassment. The specific job of a CMV law enforcement officer is to ensure Commercial vehicles and drivers are safe and legal to be on the road. If they do not do thier job, there is a potential for many lives to be lost when a truck crashes. When a truck crashes and kills someone, the driver may face criminal charges. So even though the driver may be a good person, if they do something or even don't do something and that action or lack of action can cost lives.

If it's a Hazmat truck or trailer, then there would be additional inspection stickers and inspection form for each vessel.

@keithmeddock1243 Год назад

The sticker for annual inspections is no longer required by FMCSA/DOT. And before anyone responds, look it up. The only requirement is that you have the inspection form in the cab card and the trailer should have a place for its paperwork. Stickers are not required. I'm not saying that a stop would go easier if it was there, but if a citation is written, it is reversible. That being said, if an out of date sticker is there, it would be wise to remove it altogether.

@Selfmade44 Год назад

@@keithmeddock1243 Right but the officer made it clear that either or was fine. This particular company don't keep the report in the units but if the sticker was stamped "July 22" then it was not out of date bc there is no expiration date on the stickers. They are stamped monthly and yearly. The only real way to get the exact day it expire is to have a report of the inspection inside the cab. Normally an officer will not ask for it if the month and year on the sticker is good. I keep my stickers inside my side door box where my fire extinguisher and triangles are located bc some drivers being dirty will peel off a sticker of a parked truck.

People REALLY need to read the fine print on rider release forms. It varies by company but most company release forms state "Passenger must surrender this form and identification to a law enforcement officer if requested by said officer" The officer is well within his rights to ask for her ID as well as the authorization form. I had to show an Iowa cop my ID as well as the form back when i was 14 and riding with my dad, back in the day. I was a big kid and he asked to see my log book. I kept one as a training log.

In my younger days, I did inspections on Trucks & Trailers with my company. Each rig was inspected after each load if they were routed to our terminal. The owner operators hated me as I was very thorough with my inspections and it was time consuming especially if there were 8-10 rigs waiting in line at the safety lane. I have been threatened with being beaten & shot by a few drivers but I would smile and say safety first. I feel that I saved some lives with unsafe things that I found such as the steel belts showing through the inside walls of both steering tires on one truck. I showed this to the owner operator and he thanked me for saving his life. Once I found a broken 3 leaf spring that had work itself free of the u-bolts which could or would have fallen in the highway at anytime. I found several loose tandem wheels on trailers where the axle nuts had backed off which could have been catastrophic if the wheel had came off the axles in traffic?

There's anywhere from 12 to well over 20 permits, registrations, licenses, and other papers. That's why we keep them all in a binder. And keep that binder in the door slot for quick retrieval. Many have to be renewed every year, but there's some that are every other year, or 3 years, 5, or even permanent; never needing renewal. Even the trailer has a yearly registration and license. The paper is usually in a nose box at the front of the trailer. And that paperwork often goes missing. While a company will arrange for all the updates, a good company will alert you to upcoming renewals. Even so, it's always up to the driver to make sure all the paperwork is up to date, and to make arrangements to get his tractor inspected. Whether we're owner/operators or company drivers, we're 100% responsible for getting it done. This is, in part, why self driving trucks will never replace the driver. No self driving truck will ever arrange for an annual inspection, go through the permit book and make sure everything is up to date, ensure the load is loaded and secured properly, or arrange for maintenance before something becomes a problem.

This is a great lesson to new drivers. I've been driving for 21 years, and have trained drivers since 2008. During that time I've always trained guys to always check inspection stickers on the truck and the trailer whenever you do your pretrip inspections. If you don't you can run into issues like this. As far as red dye diesel, that's off road use stuff and not allowed to be used in trucks. The last time they allowed that fuel to be used was during hurricane Katrina and with the fuel shortage they allowed it. But with the newer motors I highly doubt they would run well with it. Hope you have better luck in the future.

If you had a diesel pickup at your farm, that was never registered for driving on the road, and never saw the road, you could legally run red diesel in it. Diesel equipment at mines, construction equipment, diesel generators, etc... can all run red dyed diesel since they aren't used on public roads, and thus not pay the built in road tax.

I must say that you handled that situation very professional and I don't see why you should lose points for this your record keeping is spot on and applying that sticker was someone else's responsibility. Red dyed fuel is for offroad vehicles and machinery, it is untaxed and therefore is cheaper and illegal to run in a road tractor. Stay safe out there!

@grzewnicki Год назад

It may be the mechanics job to apply the sticker, it is still the driver's responsibility to ensure it is there. I drove ready mix trucks for 13 years, whenever I was assigned another truck due to mine being in shop, you can bet I walked around and made sure registration, fuel tax sticker and sticker showing last yearly inspection were all current, and paper copies of those items were in the trucks information binder, before I left the shop.

@sorinsrn5442 Год назад

In my country the red dyed fuel is diesel fuel, not kerosene. The only difference is that it is dyed red so you cannot use it on street vehicles, only for tractors and any offroad vehicles/machines.

They can ALWAYS say, "Your slack adjusters are out of adjustment." Even if you drive immediately back to the terminal and have a mechanic check.... it's IMPOSSIBLE to win in court. Companies know this and simply pay the State, and call it "The price of doing business.' This happened to me, and even though I am retired now, it still pisses me off that State Patrol and DOT officers get away with this s**t. EDIT ADDITIONAL: Fuel with red dye in it is for off road use only (think bulldozers, excavators, skid steer's etc etc) BTW driver.... since this video was 15 minutes long, don't forget to update your logbook.

I watch a lot of these trucking related channels to learn and be enlightened on how much the driver is responsible for, after seeing this video, I view trucking a lot differently than I used to, it used be so cool, but now it seems so scary and complicated, I don't think it's something everyone can do, you have to have a certain mindset and you have to always be vigilant about everything with your truck and how many hours you drive and where to stop for the night, so much planning ahead and so much unexpected things happen when you think you have it all down to a "T". I play American Truck Simulator and it's nothing like real life at all, it's just you, your own "Trucking Company", your drivers and your trucks, and what loads you want to do. I've learned a lot out of this video, than you for what you do and for keeping the country alive. Be safe, have fun and keep the shiny side up.

trucking is an occupation where every day you may be called upon to prove your innocence. you have no rights of privacy. you are assumed guilty by overzealous DOT cops. ive been kept at a rest area for four hours while they climbed all over and through my hazmat load (eleven placards) looking to see if EVERY CONTAINER/PACKAGE was the correct one for the hazmat contained! even to the point of trying to see the numbers on the bottom of steel drums of flammable liquids. i worked for a chemical company. the was no way they were going to send out product in non-compliant packaging. i had a full days run ahead and 12 stops. then cop wanted to make sure i didnt make it home that night. burst his bubble when i told him id just hit a motel and go home in the morning. i didnt care. company paid for room and meals. lol

@thefibergoddess6771 5 месяцев назад

I've had this happen to several of the trucks at the company I work for. The inspection was done but no sticker was put on the truck. And because we are registered in one state (MA) and the drivers don't, they don't know about the sticker. Red Dye fuel is for non-tax usage. It's usually for public transits and farms.

In 15 years of pulling tankers and 6 years of dry vans I never once had a random roadside inspection. I paid particular attention to updating my permit book and keeping those permits that expired during the year and not on January 1 current. It's an area that was not emphasized at all in training and that I pursued myself. Red dyed diesel has no road tax paid on it. One gallon of red dye will color 1000 gallons of diesel fuel red. It's very powerful.

Fuel checks are common in farming areas where local 18 wheelers are used.

@edwardscott3262 Год назад

You can technically run red dyed diesel on the road you just have to pay taxes on it by keeping track of your use and paying taxes on it. Nobody does it because you have to pay taxes for every gallon of dyed fuel in your tank and that dye as mentioned will dye a hell of a lot of fuel red. Every gallon you'll either pay double taxes or risk a fine until your fuel is no longer red. Most people get in trouble not trying to cheat the system but by trying not to get double taxed.
