| Looks like I'm getting stuck with a newer tractor at work, and noticed the apportioned tags are one state, and the IFTA stickers are for a different state. I'm thinking the state of issue for the plates and IFTA should match. These jokers aren't above just throwing on a set of stickers they had laying in the drawer. GTG or no? Rather not wind up detained by the roadside. |

You look like the most normal person on the planet, or a serial killer. I can't decide. Either way, rock on.- Dan_Gray

Truckers understand what's going on.. cars never do. Anyway you're going 30 miles an hour. The cars Should be blowing past you.. The trucks should be not tailgating you, so they can clearly see that they're getting closer... What I hate is these Tractor-trailers that Follow too closely. My Jake is extremely impressive... And I don't have the brakelights feature... I have to really be careful that one of these jack wagons isn't fifteen feet from me. |
