I’ve did DOT inspections for 22 yrs with the Sheriffs dept. All stops were on a 2 lane road as that’s all we had. I’d try to be very careful where I’d stop, and was always very courteous to every driver. My Dad was a driver and I rode with him and met a few adam henry cops who treated him like poo. Never wrote a bad inspection, never ever wrote for tinted windows and carefully explained every violation. Now mind you, I inspected mainly logging trucks and dump truck. Occasionally would catch an OTR rig and dealt with many none English speaking drivers running the back roads to avoid the scales on I-5. Remember, not all Cops are bad and nearly all the drivers were courteous.
@@mellsterr6192 thanks for sharing this. If only all the DOT had your perspective and all the drivers were courteous. I have definitely encountered both ends of the spectrum from drivers and DOT. Coming up I had the mindset that we were all out here trying to make the roads safer. Thank you for your service.
Or the out-of-adjustment brakes is another good one, can't leave until they are legal, sure you can adjust them, no we don't need to reinspect them...here's your ticket (and now your CSA points). 🤬
I’m definitely onboard with the “This is how Alice does it” channel. Enjoyed the outtakes at the end of the video. Would definitely enjoy more of those. Keep smiling, I appreciate you and Martin very much.
Friggin DOT… gave me crap for my blue breather lights in Wyoming. Problem solved with color changing lights. Meanwhile; five trucks with air leaks and wheels seals slinging oil roll by.
my dad is to blame.for my truck enthusiasm he put me on his lap when i was 5 in a 1965 mack twin stick that thing bellowed! smoke hauling bulldosers but barely moved lol it felt safe and cool big huge white ssteering wheel with 2 shifters i rember that
Alice, great job on the editing of this video. Please add more bloopers at the end even when Martin is on for the week. But I'm sure Martin says he doesn't do any mistakes that are blooper worthy. LOL Definitely had a good chuckle at the end, thank you very much for what you both do for all of us entertaining us as well as delivering what we all use and need.
love your videos.keep on rocking!.my son is out their somewhere among you guys he mostly is around north dakato he told me today hes got a dark green 2023 pete long noze.he said its a 600 something hp motor he said its a beaast and been dependiabile
Get the highest UV rejection you can get, I still feel heat on my trucker arm. It knocked out a lot of heat but not all of it, but I didn’t get the highest heat rejection.
@TruckingTogether get one of those pull down window shades as well, I have very light tint and the pull down shade, I think it confuses those dopes because they can see the pull down shade. I think I passed you in Wyoming on Friday??
That cop votes left lol but he’s gonna get you for your tint while guys out here with limo tint and turban torpedos are destroying property running illegal but they won’t pull them over bc they will get sued. Quote from Evanston port of entry
Hi Alice! ✨♥️✨ Here’s a little tip so you don’t run out of hours on your 70… Only drive 9 hours a day, not ten, not 11. As long as you can make your destinations you’ll be fine, you’ll start to twist the drive daytime into nighttime slowly but you’ll be able to drive for up to 5 weeks without having to worry about running out of drive time hours. That’s how I do it all the time. I haven’t run out of hours in years. I used to run hard everyday and then get stuck in tin-buck-two doing a 34. I learned to conserve my hours. It’s like leaving a few extra bucks in your pocket, so you’re never running out of cash, same logic… Trust me, it works Drive safe Sister! Btw… I like the psycho part in the beginning. Love ❤️ Love DodiLina

She dead heads to many miles...don't you see all the empty miles she's putting on, her dispatcher is killing her...her pay sheet has got to be shit...
Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m saying, The dispatch will run the heck out of you… I did that for 20 years. I finally got smart and stopped letting dispatch run my life. I’m been driving for 34 years. Whether she makes a lot or a little bit of money is none of my business. It’s the hours I’m talking about
the last week I was out I ran 9ish hours a day and was fine for recap. I was originally planning to be back before that 8th day so didn’t plan accordingly
i remember driving transtar2 cabovers back in the 70s.man if you didnt fudge on them logs you where fired!.times have changed.i used to go to truckstops andbuy a bottle of whitecrosses it would keep you sharp as a hawk all night.to bad good things got illegal.a few truckers overdid it it made them illegal,to bad its aways othere people that screw good things up!
This is why I drive a manual with no eld and no ecm and run an old carrier thunderbird reefer and spring ride suspension and tube tires with split rims.
As long as airlines are tied to other close objects they won't rub. He needed an excuse to right up another item. They do have a quota they need to make every day otherwise the boss can fire them
Have to do like Trucker Kim asked the officer to show her where the air leak (in her situation) so that she could show the mechanic what to fix. Officer tries to show her but it’s not leaking air…. Amazing F#&$@+% revenue collectors
Hi enjoy the channel 😊 is there more channel footage on the engine change on the black truck and about the type of engine going in it enjoy that side of the knowledge it's inspiring to see hear thank you 😊
Steele, ND is one on my favorite fuel stops..hope to run into you there some time. I ask the DOT inspectors show me stuff like those mysterious chafing lines.. Be safe out there,
I got a level 1 in September during the “ blitz”. Dotsero Colorado just before Glenwood Canyon. Every cop in the state was there. I got lectured about my gps being on the bottom of the windshield. And the dash cam, being within the sweep of the wiper blades on the passenger side. Thats the whole point, to keep the camera clear of obstruction. No citation for that, but lectured.🤨🤨 Got written up for not having an ELD cradle. First time DOT has ever checked my window tint. Was legal @78%. Friggen ball breakers !!
I got the same lecture from an Idaho DOT officer about the GPS - I told him it wasn't going up to the top of the windshield for safety reasons (gravity) and that the power cord wasn't long enough to go around the windshield.....
Unexpected traffic?! But the weather is always unpredictable. Hope all went well the rest of the trip. At some of the truck stops the bathrooms/shower rooms are beyond description.
I’m all for the light tint on the windows because the sun beating down on you all day without tint you get sunburned. The heavy tinted windows that’s a problem. Your sticker is hilarious.
I run 20% tiny because as a solo female trucker I don’t need every guy easily seeing me in this truck. I’ll take the write up chances for my safety thanks
@@TruckingTogether my niece feels like you she's on alert every minute. She's had a few crazies after just seeing she's female. I suggest she carry hornets spray she has it in one of the cupholders.
Colorado also puts Chaffing lines on an inspection report. I ask the scale house worker to show me? There was no Chaffing. The lumper coming out knocking on the door. He was wanting you to offer him some extra cash? On the hot cheese? It would be better if the shipper chills it in their refrigerator before loading it into your reefer trailer. Be safe when traveling alone..!!..
So you forgot to turn the reefer on after fueling, then you get to the shipper…. Turn on reefer wait inline for over an hour to check in, reefer is at correct temp when checking in. Sounds like experienced truck driver saving reefer fuel and not pre cooling sailboat fuel. 😂😂
Elogs the very reason I hung it up August 2017, wish I was still out there, but criminals wear ankle bracelets and that's those elogs are. Don't know how you do it bumping those docks, it didn't take me long to figure out hopper or pneumatic was where it's at. Great video!!
I really thought the opening scene would be your last as Martin with is knife slices the shower curtain and then we would see blood pouring into the drain.
It's Halloween I've acted out that scene with a rolled up news paper. Believe me the punishment payback I got was just as good. If you can't laugh at yourself you can't laugh at anyone else
These road pirates stopping any vehicle on the side of the road is dangerous. My niece drives a semi she said she has to completely tune out the sound of a cops voice. I picture family Halloween fun in making after that shower scene . Have a most wonderful day
You can request a safe haven. And they have to give it to you for your inspection. It happened to me south of Olathe,kansas.... They brought me up to the scalehouse
Welcome to my Home State of Kansas. The land of oz (as in ahz crap nothing to see for miles and miles). I worked at Swans/Tony Pizza 50 yrs ago there in Salina. And yes they are haters about window tint ask me how I know!
my first truck otr was a 1979 tanstar2 copper brown with 3 stripes.single exhaust 350 cummins 13 speed that truck i put 500 thousand miles on it it only stranded me one time in kansas.but it had chit heater i had to put small blanket by my feet and air conditioning always broke.mechanics hated to see me after they fixed it and it broke folling week othere than that it ran and ran
im old but still dont understand the automatics what is the fun in that and what do you do with your hands.hell i had trouble with no power steering and 13 speeds i got bored fidgeting with hands needed more things to do.i remember the cabovers at truck stops my exercise was not todays rules but jump outa seat and use one hand to slide down the pole it was fun.when you where tired it woke you up
Not long ago, a Michigan DOT got smoked doing a Roadside Inspection. Safety first... Remember when they were pushing ELDs, they said DOT will have nothing to do.... Clearly they still need the revenue from something.
Just an observation. I think I might have seen where the cop saw where there might be 'rubbing' lines. At 11:29 it looks like the hose might be rubbing on the loom. Because of the angle, it isn't completely clear, but he said something about the line 'rubbing on the plastic thing' (or something very close to that), but even then, it is only one line, not two, unless the one just 'below' the big one is rubbing too. I know I was once pulled in for an inspection at a very small weigh station on a small road, and the guy went over everything with a fine tooth comb. The only thing he could find was the hoses between my trailers were sitting on the dolly. But the way they were sitting, the didn't/couldn't even move. He didn't say they were damaged, only that they were sitting on metal. Oh, yes, he had a trainee working with him. I am sure he had just told him that 'you can find something wrong on every truck', and had to come up with something. Great video Alice, I always really enjoy them.
I do find it fascinating that after all that there was no fine. Guess he had to write something. My dad told me they are always looking for something bright red and clean.
In state of Wisconsin your allowed to have a tint % of 35% to be semi truck legal but according to us dot they want it to be 70% which pretty much non tinted in state of arizona and utah the legal tint is 27% so it varies from state to state
I’m aware of the tint laws and was before I got them tinted. As a woman alone out here I rather take the violations vs having clear windows for all to see me
Get a doctor's note saying you need the tint to prevent skin cancer..... people do it......just a suggestion 🤷🏻♂️.....that is, I guess, if you are prone to skin cancer....sorry, late edit.....but you probably knew what I was talking about 👍🏻
Some police do monitor CB channels. lt would've been nice of that officer to point out the chafing, but usually they advise one to stay inside the vehicle.
I did. He siad he left his phone in the car. I decided given the busy highway I didnt want to go under the trailer along with good luck getting him to remove it once already in the system.. So I let it go
That’s Kansas DOT for you got stopped there because they said my license plate light on my trailer was out they wouldn’t let me get out of the truck said it wasn’t safe for me to get out of the truck so I mediately went to the nearest shop. They couldn’t find anything wrong. Tried to get the violation removed could never get a hold of anyone to straighten it out. Good luck.
that’s the ridiculous part of it all. I know so many who went to a shop immediately afterwards got proof nothing wrong and couldn’t even fight it because basically the system is what the cop says and not a damn thing you can do about it… Shame because there goes 19 years of zero CSA points on my record. I’ll take the tint ones but the airlines that’s total bs 👎🏻
most the time they dont want to mess with them. I asked Wyoming why they dont go after them for not bringing in paperwork and they reply "they dont even speak english so pointless" even though that is also a requirment of having your CDL... Guess they dont want the hassle or to be sued - who knows!!
Great intro there. I remember back in the 10 and 8 days if you were stuck on the road and could not move, accident or roadway out, and now out of hours , you were allowed to drive to a place where you could park. This was legal to have extra drive time. Just had to not it in your paper log. Does the ELD system recognize this?
I was so stopped by one of those pricks. Wrote me a warning and i got to my destination and crawled under the trailer and was pissed. On a 2 lane of course. Next time i will be shown. Oh ya was stopped going 70 in a 65 right by the house too. I'm like dude i drive my pickup and jeep 70 on here too and you only stop me driving my semi..jerk. had a clean inspection 😊 i think they should be accountable for their tickets by showing pics or video. So Alice who gets to wear the shorts!😂
They shouldn't do Inspection on the side of any road. Ots easier for them to find a wider area instead of the road side. If they csn ride around with tint everyone should be able also.
tHEY ALWAYS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WINDOW TINT THAT IS PUT ON YOUR WINDOWS . BUT ITS FINE FOR THEM TO HAVE TINTED WINDOWS DARKER THAN WHAT YOU HAVE ON THERE CARS . tHEY CAN RIDE AROUND IN COOL CARS BUT THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE A PROBLEM KEEPING YOUR CAB COLLED DOWN .

Alice when you pull that tint off, replace it with clear ceramic tint, 100% legal and does the job. That's why I drive an older truck no ELD.
Get the highest UV rejection you can get, I still feel heat on my trucker arm. It knocked out a lot of heat but not all of it, but I didn’t get the highest heat rejection.
I’m not planning on taking the tint off.. price I’ll pay 🤷🏼♀️ as a female driver out here I want the darker windows
@@TruckingTogether I don't blame you
@TruckingTogether get one of those pull down window shades as well, I have very light tint and the pull down shade, I think it confuses those dopes because they can see the pull down shade.

I got a level 1 in September during the “ blitz”. Dotsero Colorado just before Glenwood Canyon. Every cop in the state was there.
I got lectured about my gps being on the bottom of the windshield. And the dash cam, being within the sweep of the wiper blades on the passenger side.
Thats the whole point, to keep the camera clear of obstruction.
No citation for that, but lectured.🤨🤨
Got written up for not having an ELD cradle.

Well now you know why they want you to have a full reefer tank when you pull in, since they are giving you a free top off.

Unexpected traffic?! But the weather is always unpredictable. Hope all went well the rest of the trip. At some of the truck stops the bathrooms/shower rooms are beyond description.
This is where I only wear flip flops. In the truck stop shower. I think Bonehead Truckers would approve.
Thanks Alice that was good content. Nice seeing some Green Bay sites at the end!
I agree, doing an inspection on the side of the road isn't safe. Flies suck.
My point actually, bigger problems in trucking than flip flops. Stay strong and safe

Get a doctor's note saying you need the tint to prevent skin cancer..... people do it......just a suggestion 🤷🏻♂️.....that is, I guess, if you are prone to skin cancer....sorry, late edit.....but you probably knew what I was talking about 👍🏻
Some police do monitor CB channels. lt would've been nice of that officer to point out the chafing, but usually they advise one to stay inside the vehicle.
Next time I would probably ask the officer to see the actual violation. Never take his or her word for it.
I did. He siad he left his phone in the car. I decided given the busy highway I didnt want to go under the trailer along with good luck getting him to remove it once already in the system.. So I let it go
27:02 Mixer!
That’s Kansas DOT for you got stopped there because they said my license plate light on my trailer was out they wouldn’t let me get out of the truck said it wasn’t safe for me to get out of the truck so I mediately went to the nearest shop. They couldn’t find anything wrong. Tried to get the violation removed could never get a hold of anyone to straighten it out. Good luck.
that’s the ridiculous part of it all. I know so many who went to a shop immediately afterwards got proof nothing wrong and couldn’t even fight it because basically the system is what the cop says and not a damn thing you can do about it… Shame because there goes 19 years of zero CSA points on my record. I’ll take the tint ones but the airlines that’s total bs 👎🏻
Been driving a while, has anyone ever seen a inspection done on any camel driven truck,
most the time they dont want to mess with them. I asked Wyoming why they dont go after them for not bringing in paperwork and they reply "they dont even speak english so pointless" even though that is also a requirment of having your CDL... Guess they dont want the hassle or to be sued - who knows!!
Great intro there. I remember back in the 10 and 8 days if you were stuck on the road and could not move, accident or roadway out, and now out of hours , you were allowed to drive to a place where you could park. This was legal to have extra drive time. Just had to not it in your paper log. Does the ELD system recognize this?
that was the best one yet 🤣
You could run recaps and make it home. Your eld should have that on it.
Not until after midnight. I made it home a-ok dontcha worry
I was so stopped by one of those pricks. Wrote me a warning and i got to my destination and crawled under the trailer and was pissed. On a 2 lane of course. Next time i will be shown. Oh ya was stopped going 70 in a 65 right by the house too. I'm like dude i drive my pickup and jeep 70 on here too and you only stop me driving my semi..jerk. had a clean inspection 😊 i think they should be accountable for their tickets by showing pics or video. So Alice who gets to wear the shorts!😂
I suspect a number of viewers won’t understand the opening scene because Psycho movie is way before their lifetime!
analytics show most the audience is 65+ so hopefully they get it 😂
@@TruckingTogetherthat’s good because I am 68 myself! I suspected your audience skewed older but not that old! 😉
RIGHT ON 👍💪🏻❤️☮️✌️
What sticker did you have on the back of trailer
"Only Gay Cops Pull me Over"
They shouldn't do Inspection on the side of any road. Ots easier for them to find a wider area instead of the road side. If they csn ride around with tint everyone should be able also.
Lmao on sticker. They should do those inspections at the rest stops or weigh stations.
lol I’m sure you do 😅
I load cheese at that same place every week
Looks better without the wind skirt anyways haha. Rip that def tank off and it will be perfect
Look closer.
Sneaky sneaky
tHEY ALWAYS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE WINDOW TINT THAT IS PUT ON YOUR WINDOWS . BUT ITS FINE FOR THEM TO HAVE TINTED WINDOWS DARKER THAN WHAT YOU HAVE ON THERE CARS . tHEY CAN RIDE AROUND IN COOL CARS BUT THEY WANT YOU TO HAVE A PROBLEM KEEPING YOUR CAB COLLED DOWN .
