FMCSR & DOT? 3 QUESTION'S I "GOTTA" KNOW?

Curious? 1. Are any of you; or do you know of any person on the payroll and an employee of FMCSR or DOT? 2. If so; Have you ever spent a minimum 14 hour work day in/on a Tractor delivering Freight or been in one for up to 24 hours? 3. Why does your agency/company set the rules and not the/us Trucker's & trucking companies? Did i miss something along the way? Is that the root reason why the last 6 or 7 O/Os i've driven for IN A ROW since early 2007 have gone out'a biz? Would you ever work for us instead of against us? Woop's,,,,,, that was 4 or 6 or more huh?

I'm sorry, was there a question somewhere in that rant?

If the companys set the rules the truck would be moving 24/7. Sleep? You can sleep well they unload you :lol:

Poor business skills may be the reason for that

And here I always thought the the DOT did work for us by making the roads safe for by keeping unsafe trucks and drives off of them.

GREAT Point's double R! :)

If they are on the payroll, I sure hope they are an employee of some sort.

I'm sure some have, but I would guess that most haven't.

Because if the trucking companies set the rules, then the trucking companies would set the rules to maximize profits.

Plenty.

It's all your fault. True story.

I believe they do.

It was 6. Hope this helps :D

I am a bit curious.... Why has the OP's 7 jobs with O/O's gone down the toilet in a year? Why hasn't the OP been hired by a carrier??? I am sure Sheepdancer could find a home for the OP..... Since the OP says he was a lineman, was he zapped by 500kV transmission line ? This would only explain the odd postings on various sites....
