If you are fueling securing Etc then yes you should stay on duty those are on duty requirements but when you were sitting at a shipper for extended periods of time knows you have no special requirements other than sitting there so you can go off duty and do a split
There's no CSA points in an overweight ticket. It's a violation, and they have different levels depending on how heavy you are, but no points of any kind
I was hired by Western Express in VA and everything you mentioned about them is like you were riding shotgun with me. It's uncanny how you had the same problems as I did. Thinking about buying two quad axle dump trucks and running out of my local quarry with one employee.... then maybe try to grow from there. I grew up with a couple guys from Uniondale on Long Island. You remind me so much of them! Keep making these daily hits if you can. Good stuff my man! God Bless!
How do you check you CSA points? And everything you said is true I been their sometimes they try to bully you saying if you ain’t man enough don’t do it and I ain’t no chicken lol it’s crazy world out their.
These are facts. And I know it's hard to say NO to you're DM. but I promise you their not going to pay for you're ticket. Numbers and profit is the only thing that matters. Not our CDL
You are not responsible for weights just tandem placement. It's common courtesy to let the company know that your over weight so they and make the call but your 5th wheel to center rear tandem wheel has got to be right. Most states is 41 ft but ky la Al tx ga ms don't have one for a 53' tandem trailer you can have your tandem slid all the way back in those states I think ca is 40' but it's been a long time sense I've been there. There is charts you can buy and I think it's in the fmcsa hand book or you can just call dot in the states you're driving through and ask. The company is responsible for weights tickets and the driver is responsible for the tandem distance ticket
How are private companies allowed to share records without some kind of appeal process? This gives companies all the power and the worker almost no power.
Well God bless at least you can walk and talk I've always heard themselves and then car dealers they can't walk and talk at the same time I've always heard that😊❤
If you’re OTR with a California address, you’re either lazy or dim… or both. Even as a company driver, you should find a carrier that will pay you 1099. Set up your LLC, and write off everything. Then you work your clock as best you can.
Hey GGG hope your doing well brother. God bless you.
How is a company legally allowed to overload you?
Such a violation should be on the company, not the driver.
Demand to see weight before signing bol.
Thanks for the advice.
Don’t take this advice
ditto! good video. we need more videos like this. protect your CDL.
budweiser wil overload u cat scale wil prove it

My company took our split clock away from us.
This leads to excessive driver fatigue.
I never go on duty for fueling. And....
They have never said anything about it.
@@secretsquirrel6718 I don't either but if you're going to be a stickler about when you should be on and off duty that is one you should be
Well call dot
And if your overloaded and ypu get in a wreck and kill somebody you will go to prison

They don't need to "chase you down" if you blow the scale...You will be notified about it....
Not true at all
@@secretsquirrel6718 they have cameras all over the place
@@DavidVanHelden1 o.k. so why am I not in trouble for blowing the scales all the time?
They do not have the man power to deal with it.
@@secretsquirrel6718 If you are blowing the scales all the time you are not worth having a conversation about it ..WTF !
@@DavidVanHelden1 haha..you jelly bro
Well God bless at least you can walk and talk I've always heard themselves and then car dealers they can't walk and talk at the same time I've always heard that😊❤
