I am very glad that you got your heat back. It sounds like you guys are doing fine now with Trans-Am. Good miles and they are treating your husband alright. I am glad that the training experience is over and things are looking up for you guys.

Take Care and Keep Warm

No attitude from him at all. Of course if you'd like to presume you know him then thats fine. He was right along with 2 other trucks, and trying to keep one off his rear, and simply doesn't understand why he was singled out when he wasn't the problem. He's not "racking" up anything, its the only speeding ticket he's EVER gotten, so lay off, nobody is perfect. There are MANY more people on this board who deserved attacked much more than he does.
That said, nobody's blaming the cop, fighting the ticket or anything else. Whats done is done, I already said that in both places I have posted about this. Several other people have made comments about the Highway Patrol in PA being overzealous, are you going to go rag on them too?

He knows what he should have been, and yes the lesson is learned. Its just an interesting balance between impeding traffic which he felt he would be doing otherwise, and obeying the letter of the law. Trust me , there will be no more favoring the spirit of that particular law, or trying to do others a favor.

Doing the speed limit is not impeding traffic ever. You would be impeding traffic for going to slow on a single lane roadway, or blocking an intersection for too long. Don't let it get him down. For 9 over and a cop would never give a 4 wheeler a second look, but a rig is a bullseye for cops.

P/S I read this thread from start to finish, nice read. BOL to you both

and several other people have ragged of cops in ohio and indiana and california and texas... whats your point?

everyone always thinks there innocent....

I swear i didnt do it !!http://bestsmileys.com/cops/8.gif like some cops dont target trucks ????

I am i never do anything wrong so yes i am innocent . :twisted:

Then go bother them, as nobody here ever thought that, much less claimed it. He did it, took the ticket and moved on. Seems to me you're desperate for somebody to fuss at, since all of this has already been admitted by him and me, I just don't appreciate your attitude with it :)
At this point I will be moving on, as pointless argument will accomplish nothing.

I told him what you said and he said thanks, and so do I. Thanks for keeping up and being NICE about it.

My husband is in Flagler, CO, out of hours. He was originally supposed to drop last night but is out of hours and was delayed in PA due to a balding tire that had to be replaced. They rescheduled his load for Wednesday, but were "nice" enough to swap him out with a driver who lives by Denver and is on hometime until Wednesday. They're supposed to meet and swap tomorrow morning after my husband gets some hours back at midnight tonight, at which point my husband is supposed to get another load. Would have been great except they told the other driver he would be at the swap point last night :roll:, the swap is almost to Denver where his drop was scheduled...so there was no way he could legally make it there last night.
