Man, I would love to join in here and tell my story of getting pulled for a mudflap, and paying for a Logbook violation.... oh, and "HOW I LEARNED the rules of OOS orders."

But, I just barely had time to see that KC0iv had already done so, and that my "OLD" friend WindWalker had flipped out over it.

But, I gotta wonder... With all the trucks I see going up the road and the mudflaps "flying", has anyone else been told about this? Just a warning, and not a ticket. No money to the State of Texas.
Okay.... NOT a "flipout." But, I would have expected such an experienced, and "seasoned" driver, with many years and miles on the road MORE than me, to have "recognized" and been aware of.... so many "local and state rules" that the FMCSR's allow, that will give ANY DOT LEO a "reason" to make us their "first RANDOM CMV inspection" of the day!
