the only idea I can give you on the price of the idleing ticket,is the warning sign posted in our NJ terminal states fines up to $3k......

Having a pet in the truck falls under the passenger comfort laws, From what I understand a dog or cat will not work but if you have a pet that has no other way to keep warm or cool (bird, fish or snake) will work.

A dog or cat in your truck in NYC is a defense against a idling ticket, as well as Cali. I avoided 2 tickets at Hunts Point and 1 in Sacremento when I was pulling reefers. The temp in NYC was around 35 degrees the first time and around 50 the second time. IN Cali, the air temp was 102. My Australian Shepherd earned her steak bones for those. May she Rest In Peace.

I am pretty much sure that a dog or cat in the truck is a defense against a ticket in pretty much all the states, as the SPCA has more clout than the EPA on that issue.

I don't know much about NJ but in RI it's called unattended motorvehicle. Mostly due to the vehicle can be stolen which leads to other issues. I got my aggots busted along the pike in my private vehicle. I was parked getting a few winks and the NJ trooper woke me up telling me I was parked wrong going across the parking space lines and not within the lines. I was in the far corner of the lot and no one else around at 3 in them morning. So NJ? That why seagulls fly upside down over NJ, nothing worth crapping on.

I wasn't sure if they would work? But sounds like they do. Amazing how a animal has more rights in a truck than the driver does?

Hopefully your luck doesn't continue this way for too long, i pull a bulk tank as well down here in florida, although it's not an everyday thing, my company just uses it for one customer, but the days i've got to pull it, i'm not too thrilled, noisy as all hell, and likes to plug up, not too mention if you don't keep an eye on it, it'll be too late to notice you blew the top off the silo :? Anyway, good luck with it, it's nice to be doing something different though, i take a little pride in knowing that not only am i professional driver, but also a skilled "pneumatic" operator, hopefully i spelled that right.

Where ya been miller havent seen you around in a while. You move up to PA yet. I like pullin the dry bulk its something diff. Just to let you know you where right when you told me to stay and the shit pumpin job i had a good job there. The grass aint always greener. Oh well you live and learn. Now i have to work 12-14hrs to make what i used to in 8-10. :evil: Sometimes i jam the hose up when i try to empty 2 hoppers at the same time. :lol:

Yep, look at Michael Vick. If he was involved in bumfighting you think there would be this much anger? I doubt it.
