I agree not worth the risk

Company regulations will probably be more strict than state or Fed regs. The regs of the first company I pulled for were if I had the keys to the tractor in my possession, which was all the time, I could not consume alcohol. It was a long dry spell, but the job was more important than an adult beverage. BOL

P.S. BTW, drinkin' on the road isn't a good thing. The drink gets diluted what with the snow, or rain, road spray, and dirt. It can be really windy, or dry, or wet, usually no shade was well. Vehicles goin' by look at you funny too.

I would say a lot of places still flourish not just a few. :sad:

We had an owner operator that had a six pack of beer and a bottle of Crown in his truck when he was pulled over for a DOT check and guess what, it was confiscated and he was put out of service for 48 hours, yes 48 hours and fired by the company. The six pack of beer was not open but the Crown had been but he passed the breathalyzer and stupid human trick test. I seen him a week later leased on to another company. :shock:

I would not chance it, I would not have any alcohol in my truck even if I was parked for the weekend. :roll:

Doesn't matter - no alcohol ANYWHERE on a commercial vehicle, unless it is part of a manifested shipment.

Rev.Vassago; wonders if his mouthwash counts as "alcohol".

It only counts if you swallow it :lol:. And no Jack Daniels does not make mouthwash. :wink:

Doesn't JB have a big budweiser account?

I am sure they do, which explains two things:

1. Their drivers hitting everything that isn't bolted down in a parking lot, and some things that are, and

2. Sheepdancer


"But occifer, it didn't say on the bill of leeding that I couldn't sample the shipmen..........hic"

Might I add...

All JB drivers have an official worldwide parking permit like in my sig. They can park wherever they please.

Q: You know why JB quit haling doubles?
A: The top one kept falling off.

If you have to drink, you should get a room, go drink, go back to room. Alcohol in the truck can ruin you and your company. My authority was revoked for three days once because an O/O had "beer" in a 40 oz bottle, he said it was urine, DOT said it was beer. I asked who tasted it? Got my authority reinstated. :D :D :D

LMAO!!! :lol: :lol:
