I trained at Swift, at the academy, i think the training was good enough. My 'mentors,' on the other hand, mainly trained me on how to fail an inspection--i realize now, so i used to asked myself all the question that i would find myself asking the DOT officer if i was to get pulled in. And that's how i trained myself--i would take my log book, and i would ask other drivers what to do. Most didn't know, but i found the answers and the help i needed, i really learned from old school truck driver. In short, the questions should be answered before the inspection. I've never had an inspection where i had to explain anything.
i watched this video shook my head the entire time, shut up and just answer yes or no, this is a perfect video for what not to do during a DOT Inspection
You are so right, instead of running your head, Listen, !!! then maybe next time you won't screw up, because arguing with these guys is an excerzise in futility 😛😛
He talks himself Into trouble the entire time, just talk less. Jesus, you’re frustrating the cop and stumble over your own words. As soon as the cop set foot in the truck and the driver started story time I knew it was over lol.
Dude, I was really enjoying your diarrhea stories. You should have talked about that time you had that crotch infection because you hadn't showered in two months. The cops love that stuff!
Yeah. They loved it so much, he was rewarded with an extra 10 hour break at the coup! Dude, keep the bathroom 💩 to urself. Nobody wants to hear about it. TMI. If I was that DOT dude, I would've wrote the ticket because of that. Smooth move, ex-lax!

The cops that are injured/can’t patrol for various reasons are given desk duty like this. I don’t think an officer would choose to work at a weigh station lol

Malakie Usn ......WSP here.....just curious. Can I have your source please? Your statement(s) aren’t completely factual. For instance these inspection stations are not considered light duty.Thank you.
A talker will set off alarm bells with, Cops, DOT and Border Guards. It comes across as nervous behavior. It didn't end well for his driver. Always keep your mouth shut. Only answer the question. I've been driving for over 25 years and have never been put out of service. Also back in the day you had to do an 8 hour break, now it's 10. Don't mess with it. Don't let dispatch push you. It's your licence.
This is a great training video on why you don't tell any DOT officer more than what they ask. If you give them more than a yes sir, no sir...You're wrong. He got ya man. It's lame as hell but he caught you. I'm a supporter of law enforcement but these guys have a job to do and I don't intend to help them do it...Learning experience.
You are not required to answer ANY of their questions. It is a violation of both the 4th, and 5th amendments. Seriously can't believe there hasn't been a supreme court ruling on these unconstitutional stops!
Anytime someone talks like this, you check the crap out of everything. Anyone who you ever meet that talks like this, has/is/or will be doing something wrong. In this case the cop showed him he “is” wrong. This guy was an easy catch because he talked as if he wanted to divert their attention. Believe me, every “good-old-boy” word out of his mouth, made the cop look harder.
You talk way to much. Just shut up and answer the questions directly. He doesn't care about half the stuff you said and you were clearly pissing him off
Also everyone saying " oh man he put you outa service because of like 7 minutes " The officer identified numerous log falsifications and that's just in the eight days. Imagine if they looked at his full 6 months. Probably be pulling out the handcuffs.
This is just painful to watch. As a driver, it is your responsibility to know how HOS works. When JBG keeps saying, "I didn't know that", I just shake my head. If all he got was an 10 hour OOS, he is lucky.
Although i hate dot and inspections But this officer was cool taking into consideration that the trucker didn’t know simple rules of hours of service.He is lucky that he ended up not getting level 1 inspection where they can find stuff that is not real. And just for your information in general You can’t go off duty on premises of shipper and sit there .Although you can put it off duty and under PC leave the premises of shipper But not sit there being off duty.If you are at shippers premises you can be only on duty or sleeper
Dude that cop was trying to give you many chances to be honest after he said he wouldn’t write you a ticket, cheeses man you were digging yourself a hole. How long have you been driving? Or do you think the cops are that stupid cause you were acting like it was your first week driving
This guy has log violations and he’s running in the daytime when the scales are open, LOL, GEEZ, THESE NEW GENERATION ROOKIES TRYING TO BE TRUCK DRIVERS. NEVER TRY TO BULLSHIT A STATE TROOPER.
If mechanically inclined help all the guys that are OOS with their trailer light issues until your 10 is over. Make about $35.00 and hour while off duty. All you need is a test light and a small phillips and regular screwdriver. :) :)
I get the off duty driving loaded is illegal but he was worried about the bottom line of pin pointing what your doing. These new elogs are nothing but trouble, I'm 15 and I truck with my dad and friends enough I can right up a paper log 100% right but would look at a elog and have no idea what to do and How to run it. Stay safe and cooperate with the law is always your best way out.
This looks like the scale on 41 on the wi/Ill border? I have been through there plenty of times. I had a full dot insp there last year. I had no issues with them. They where totally fine. You need to know the rules. I dont think the cops were that bad. He is trying to do his job. He is attempting to make sure you are in compliance. Not sure what everyone is complaining about.
Oh man... you should really be journaling your trips and activities. This would have been done and you would have been on your way much quicker. This was hard to watch. I agree with others... you talked way too much.
Good video, but like many said, they are not your friend. Don’t do small talk with them. They are there to find mistakes. Keep solid logs. Consider changing some habits so they see a solid 10 hours of off duty in the E-logs.
you're digging to much on the excuses man, respect the log and thats it! the dude was very nice. i would have gave you that 400$ ticket for bullshitting me.
Due respect. Once the Inspector told you about your time out, you should have just walked out of the place and went about your business. The DOT guy was DONE with you.
1. They are still pissed they missed the Packer play off game because they had to work. 2. S.T.F.U. in a weigh station. They are not your friends. 3. Welcome to the world of E-logs. These guys were still training on breaking down H.O.S. 4. Leave your electronic shit in the truck. They don"t want to see you recording and texting and checking your you tube channel and google maps. (Did anyone notice how the skinny cop that looks like that ROTC dork from the Movie Animal House started throwing JGB dagger looks when he realized he was being filmed?) 5. They sure were not fooling around. But at least he missed a fine. 6. He could have walked to the restaurant and got run over and sued the state of Wisconsin and the Highway Patrol!
fuk them if they dont like recording...they sure record you...if he got fines and wanted to contest them it wouldve been his word against the pigs without the recording...always record pigs no matter what..they need to see it more and more and the wusses who are afraid are keeping them from being desensitized with it
Wake up Truckers !! That stupid eletronic logbook is like an ankle Bracelet. Call and tweet Pres.Trump to eliminate that shit And get your freedom back!! Seriously
Rule#1 You have the right to remain silent.... I wouldn’t have told him too much, I think you telling him that you vlog on RUclips made it feel as if he had something to prove
And put u out for 10 hours. Put a lid on the crappy, bathroom talk. TMI, driver. Stick to the shortest, possible answers. Heck, he might have just let him slide on outta there if he'd a done that. Dummy
I remember reading some parts of the FMCSA refs that said you can not drive a loaded truck after your time if service is up. You fan for a short distance unloaded, or bobtailing
Why doesn't a professional driver understand the simple rules of in service and out of service time? I'm also boggled that the driver doesn't have recollection of where he drops and picks up his loads for the previous week. If you don't have a good memory then maybe a hand written log might help explaining the eLog errors. a simple hand-jammed notebook log. My 2 cents.
***** my only issue is why go after trucks on small things but they don't really enforce rules and traffic for cars going down the highway. Least not down here in the south. Cars speed no blinkers tailgate and cut in and out of traffic. But a semi with one top marker light is out. Your getting stopped.
You seem too comfortable entering and exiting the cab. I had that fault. Missed bottom step, fell busted my skull. Result...Coded three or four times, no memory for the next three months, woke up in rehab being taught how to walk again, truck driving career ended because of seizures resulting from accident. Only job I ever had I truly miss, as driving was my passion. Still can drive personal vehicle but no class A or Class B, nor can I operate any machinery. Rough way to go out. Lesson learned..never take anything for granted, even something as simple as getting in and out of cab. By the way it was a conventional cab.
don't fully blame him. you'd be surprised how many others get, "busted for not knowing the regulations". wanna blame somebody blame the LAWMAKERS. they are the ones who keep screwing with the regs.
The commercialization of the DOT candy bars for truckers, business cards for on the road repair where the DOT get a cut for calling them just like tow trucks and cops in a accident scene.
Oh yeah, the trucking industry is a unlocked safe for the DOT. Under the full guise of "safety", the government "regulates" the trucking industry. I wonder how much money they collect in fines in a years time?
Hes trying to see if you abused personal conveyance. Personal Conveyance should only be used during breaks or looking for a rest stop at maximum 20 to 30 minute off-duty drive, if its an hour or more they get suspicious. Remember the FMCSA states the personal conveyance is under the inspector or officer discretion, meaning they decide if they approve it or not.
So glad I stopped driving..... After 5 yrs of this kind of shit... I had enough.... I got to the point where I only answered the specific question with the least words possible. This is a great example of the SCAM that the State/DOT plays to justify its existence. It didn't take me long to loose all respect for these thieves. I drove in the days of a actual logbook.... I ran several at once.... the only way to survive the system.
Are you kidding me Driver?!? You literally walked over the scaling equipment to get into the scale house?!? Man you’re lucky these were nice officers. You pulled nothing but bonehead moves at this weigh station
I went back to that part, in the first minute of the video. He sure did walk over the scales. Damn. Agreed, he pulled about every bonehead move possible at that coup. Hope he learned some valuable lessons here
Here is something that all truck drivers should remember! All DOT officers go by the book!! So READ THE BOOK,LEARN THE BOOK, AND LIVE THE BOOK if you plan on being and continue to be a truck driver!! It will save you from receiving a lot of tickets! If there’s a dot issue with your truck, fix it before they make you!! Pretrip/posttrip- know your truck! Simple!!
That's what's wrong with the trucking industry and the government controlling everything. For a simple mistake with all these new laws that no one understand including that guy they can place you out of service for 10 hours for literally a couple minutes.
I just stumbled on this channel; don't know jack about trucking but I will say this; these DOT state police check stations or what ever it is, is no convention for the brightest and sharpest. My brain cells were dying trying to follow both the driver and the cop. Wow.
Dude, what you are doing, in the end of the video you are instigating an argument and pissing them off. YOU got LUCKY for not getting a ticket. Dont talk too much or ask questions like that after he told you, you are only going to get 10 hours and NO ticket. He could turn around and tell you to fuck off and slap you with a ticket and youll be fucked. - OMG JBL - for the love of the world - be careful with shit like that.. I seen his face when you asked, that question, it ticked him off...... WAAAY Too chatty specially hostile questions like that in that very moment. Im not even there and my fucking hands are shaking when you asked that question and I seen his reaction.... holy shit bro...... I love you and all JBL - but please shaddap....LOL
10 hours OOS, you got lucky he didn't slap you with a ticket for the falsified logs (even if, as you state, it wasn't done intentionally). He went easy on you. He is following the rules he needs to follow, AND being extremely professional about it and with you. THEN you decide to ask about laws and THEN basically saying he is giving you false information about helping press the brake pedal and lights.... At that point, if I was him, if I didn't slap you with the ticket before even with all of your rambling, I would have at that point...
Good lord have mercy...you are a painful dude to watch interact with people. Stop talking so much...you are not clever and they don't want to be your friend.
You wore out your welcome with the DOT bud by talking too much. Should not have said that you hooked up and got paperwork. You should have said you stayed in the staging area.
THIS is the problem with these ELD's. WE are not allowed to conduct ourselves as regular human beings. Uchchun, show me your papers. This is no longer American. You are now compelled to incriminate yourself. You have no 5th amendment rights as a truck driver.
I thought the cop was pretty cool about it. I thought JBG was pretty cool about it. Nobody likes to get caught out of hours, but when the truck snitches on you, nothing you can do. I never just took 11 off & start running. 11:15-11:30. Every day. It makes the loads tighter, but I always manage to be on time.
I thank God I parked the truck take this crap and shove it...like some one said below SHUT UP...NO TALK OF CHILLI NO WONDER THEY DONT LIKE TRUCKERS. this video gets a rating of 6 flat tires.
I’ve driven a truck for almost 30 years now 20+ OTR the golden rule is ( , NEVER ) make small talk it’s not gonna help your situation. Be as quiet as possible and everything is NO or yes. These officers are trying to bust you.
You bring back a lot of memories. I drove from Sept., 2004 until Oct. 2009 for Werner. Longhaul driver. Longest run - Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to Lared, TX. 2007 got a brand new Freightliner Cascadia. ALL bells 7 whisltes in ti. Beautiful ride.
There's nothing wrong with making conversation and being personable with people... there's just a time and place to do it. A DOT station is definitely not the time or place my brother.😂
@@24juan68 yeah. But all u accomplished there was a 10 hour oos. And no one wants to hear about ur bathroom issues. TMI. Ur lucky he didn't write u a ticket. Remember KISS....Keep It Simple Stupid. U rattled way too much and hemmed urself up into a 10 hour oos. U showed the rookies exactly what NOT to do at a coup inspection
as a new driver stuff like this is VERY useful to see. They can train you for alot on driving but this is something they cannot simulate.So VERY useful and good to know
That one guy to his left. It says here you went from Texas to Illinois in 10.5 hrs. But I see whete Google maps shows that as a 12 hr trip😆 I think I did that route years ago and looked at the routing on my laptop. I was like no way. I think it took right around 10.5 hrs though because I always had my router set at 50 mph and Texas Oklahoma and Missouri are 75 and 70 so it's doable. And computers show center of city to center of city which adds time as well. The officer asked for him not to go the speed limit basically. Next time you know....? If it's doable it's friggin doable. Ain't no don't do that again stuff. I mean they'd shoot someone in self defense in a really close call situation and would be told not to do it again. Ain't quote the same thing as being close on a load. There are Ltl trucks that are ran on closely logged trips. But they've done it so much that they know exactly rain or snow how to go. That is exactly the difference between doing and looking online and saying it's impossible. Until you do it you don't believe it.
Johnny just stop talking after they charge you.. ticket or out of service.. you just give him more . I support law enforcement but those guys are there to catch you making mistakes.. just answer direct questions and try to keep it to yes or no responses
and don't take the camera in there again or around them.. they will be forced to follow every law and enforce said law . they can't show favoritism to one Driver and not to another and then this video shows up.. could cause some issue... just some friendly advice from a guy who used to be on the officer side of the camera
I hate HOS regs and e logs. Reason #750 why I quit trucking. I remember being required to take a 10 hr break while I was wide awake....once my break was up I had only been able to get a few hours sleep. Then I was legally able to drive but tired. No flexibility for reality. Drivers are expected to be robots while living in a closet on wheels for weeks at a time.
Elogs is why I quit a decade ago. They literally cut my check in half. It was a new concept, back then, and dispatchers/planners weren't ready for them. Run legal/run broke. Shippers/receivers had no mercy for late deliveries and pick ups. U went to the bottom of the list. They had to 'work u in'. What would normally be a 2 hour deal to get live unloaded/loaded turned into 7. Fuk the DOT and their stupid, unflexible regs. Come work our job, boys. Let's see how ur silly regs work for u when ur trying to put food on the table and pay bills!
I was told by a dot that if you load out of somewhere and there is no where to park and u out of time you can drive off duty as long as you do not travel in the direction that the load is going.
All kinds of jacked up.. how do you not know the DOT rules. You have been driving like forever. If your wrong, your wrong. It's embarrassing to watch actually.
That’s similar to us here, our vehicle can’t move at all for 9 hrs on a reduced, or 11hrs on a normal break. It’s all recorded on our card that goes in the recording device. He seemed a half decent guy, however, it caused you a pain in the butt. Unlucky pal.
The arguing was the worst thing in the world. If you can't properly explain your story then don't. If you mess up your story then it's on you, you can't change it later on.
JBG really needs a refresher course in using the electronic log. Can't remember the publication date, but JBG was pulled over for improper use of seat belt. The log was questioned on that one also. JBG, hopefully here in 2019 you have learned to use the logger and keeping it accurate. Happy trails.
Two things first yard movement while off duty. Tell him you had to find a quiter place to park. Secondly did you notice the other drivers came in did there busineess then were excused even the can hauler was let go give them what they ask for and save your commentary whrn they let you go
I thought you had to show at least 15 minutes for loading, unloading, drop&hooks, pre-trips...I know there are some companies have a line 5 for personal conveyance, or allow the driver to drive so many miles bob tailing to get something to eat or go shopping... at least. Johnny didn't have to do a 34...
When it comes to them its yes or no! No stories about shitting in the bathroom lol!! I do like your vids though!! He played you right into the palm of his hands.
I was saying the same thing the whole time. Be quiet bro!!!!!
And this is exactly why I drive at night most of the time!
Stanislav Erdeg or go around em🤝
Ferid Khammedov or just don’t go through them
"Google maps says that's a 12 hour trip" Maybe right now it is, but did you account for traffic delays that Google is adding in right now?
No, then he would not have a strong point to go on.

Malakie Usn ......WSP here.....just curious. Can I have your source please? Your statement(s) aren’t completely factual. For instance these inspection stations are not considered light duty.Thank you.
A talker will set off alarm bells with, Cops, DOT and Border Guards. It comes across as nervous behavior. It didn't end well for his driver. Always keep your mouth shut. Only answer the question. I've been driving for over 25 years and have never been put out of service. Also back in the day you had to do an 8 hour break, now it's 10. Don't mess with it. Don't let dispatch push you. It's your licence.
Roger that
You talk too much my friend.
Just listen dont talk.
This is a great training video on why you don't tell any DOT officer more than what they ask. If you give them more than a yes sir, no sir...You're wrong. He got ya man. It's lame as hell but he caught you. I'm a supporter of law enforcement but these guys have a job to do and I don't intend to help them do it...Learning experience.
DOBBS get saw war can’t stop mils

You are not required to answer ANY of their questions. It is a violation of both the 4th, and 5th amendments. Seriously can't believe there hasn't been a supreme court ruling on these unconstitutional stops!
Anytime someone talks like this, you check the crap out of everything. Anyone who you ever meet that talks like this, has/is/or will be doing something wrong. In this case the cop showed him he “is” wrong. This guy was an easy catch because he talked as if he wanted to divert their attention. Believe me, every “good-old-boy” word out of his mouth, made the cop look harder.
I had noticed this too.
Think of it as the military, don't try to small talk or volunteer anything
Those officers wanted nothing to do with the small talk. They kinda gave you the look like be quite I don't want to hear it lol
i think ti was intentional
Well there is the silence is golden rule.
@@Commissar0617 .....WATCH ME PUT MY FOOT IN MY MOUTH.
You talk way to much. Just shut up and answer the questions directly. He doesn't care about half the stuff you said and you were clearly pissing him off
Dude you need to stop talking,you in no way helped your case babbling on like you did.
👍
Man i thought i had issues with conversation
This dude inspired me to make sure my logs are LEGIT and to shut my mouth!
Also everyone saying " oh man he put you outa service because of like 7 minutes " The officer identified numerous log falsifications and that's just in the eight days. Imagine if they looked at his full 6 months. Probably be pulling out the handcuffs.
Man I'm glad you're not a DOT.
7 minutes cost ya 10 hours... gotta love it
This is just painful to watch. As a driver, it is your responsibility to know how HOS works. When JBG keeps saying, "I didn't know that", I just shake my head. If all he got was an 10 hour OOS, he is lucky.
This is what I thought too & I'm not a driver. Yes he should know all the rules which I thought this driver knew the rules from past videos I've seen.
When you asked about the rules and regulations of driving off duty. You were busted and he knew it!
Although i hate dot and inspections
But this officer was cool taking into consideration that the trucker didn’t know simple rules of hours of service.He is lucky that he ended up not getting level 1 inspection where they can find stuff that is not real.
And just for your information in general
You can’t go off duty on premises of shipper and sit there
.Although you can put it off duty and under PC leave the premises of shipper
But not sit there being off duty.If you are at shippers premises you can be only on duty or sleeper
I love watching the trooper count on his fingers. Then he gets to play cashier for the candy tree.
Dude that cop was trying to give you many chances to be honest after he said he wouldn’t write you a ticket, cheeses man you were digging yourself a hole. How long have you been driving? Or do you think the cops are that stupid cause you were acting like it was your first week driving
Hey JBG looks like your having a rough day be safe and keep the rubber on the road
This guy has log violations and he’s running in the daytime when the scales are open, LOL, GEEZ, THESE NEW GENERATION ROOKIES TRYING TO BE TRUCK DRIVERS. NEVER TRY TO BULLSHIT A STATE TROOPER.
The officer is clearly irritated
As a firefighter I can thank Google for sending us business. It sends people following it off into the same place of a local river here.
If mechanically inclined help all the guys that are OOS with their trailer light issues until your 10 is over. Make about $35.00 and hour while off duty. All you need is a test light and a small phillips and regular screwdriver. :) :)
I get the off duty driving loaded is illegal but he was worried about the bottom line of pin pointing what your doing. These new elogs are nothing but trouble, I'm 15 and I truck with my dad and friends enough I can right up a paper log 100% right but would look at a elog and have no idea what to do and How to run it. Stay safe and cooperate with the law is always your best way out.
Hello there Vincent..
TALKING TOO MUCH JOHNNY, YOU SOUND GUILTY OF SOMETHING
This looks like the scale on 41 on the wi/Ill border? I have been through there plenty of times. I had a full dot insp there last year. I had no issues with them. They where totally fine. You need to know the rules. I dont think the cops were that bad. He is trying to do his job. He is attempting to make sure you are in compliance. Not sure what everyone is complaining about.
"I'm looking at google maps" I didn't realize that was acceptable evidence to write someone a ticket lol. Like are you kidding me.
Right. Sounds like tyrants at their best.
Naughty Naughty . D O T Loves to nitpick about anything for a few dollars. It's ALL POWER. Glad I got off the road in 2014. Good Luck .
U sounded drunk. Just don't talk and what you chose to talk about was quite ridiculous. Good luck brotha
google maps is hardly accurate enough to build a case..
Had a boss when I worked oil field, believed strongly in google maps. Time it showed and time I made it NEVER worked together caused lots of issues
yes plus google maps factors in traffic which changes every time you look at it
Oh man... you should really be journaling your trips and activities. This would have been done and you would have been on your way much quicker. This was hard to watch. I agree with others... you talked way too much.
Good video, but like many said, they are not your friend. Don’t do small talk with them. They are there to find mistakes. Keep solid logs. Consider changing some habits so they see a solid 10 hours of off duty in the E-logs.
you're digging to much on the excuses man, respect the log and thats it!
the dude was very nice. i would have gave you that 400$ ticket for bullshitting me.
He's clearly not fatigued. So send him on his way.
Due respect. Once the Inspector told you about your time out, you should have just walked out of the place and went about your business. The DOT guy was DONE with you.
1. They are still pissed they missed the Packer play off game because they had to work. 2. S.T.F.U. in a weigh station. They are not your friends. 3. Welcome to the world of E-logs. These guys were still training on breaking down H.O.S. 4. Leave your electronic shit in the truck. They don"t want to see you recording and texting and checking your you tube channel and google maps. (Did anyone notice how the skinny cop that looks like that ROTC dork from the Movie Animal House started throwing JGB dagger looks when he realized he was being filmed?) 5. They sure were not fooling around. But at least he missed a fine. 6. He could have walked to the restaurant and got run over and sued the state of Wisconsin and the Highway Patrol!
fuk them if they dont like recording...they sure record you...if he got fines and wanted to contest them it wouldve been his word against the pigs without the recording...always record pigs no matter what..they need to see it more and more and the wusses who are afraid are keeping them from being desensitized with it
you cant sue them for shxt like that stop it
Hey Johnny!!... You need big
Time retraining on HOS at your
company hdqs. I think
you ops mgr or dm would be
very PISSED @ your ignorance.
Wake up Truckers !!
That stupid eletronic logbook is like an ankle Bracelet.
Call and tweet Pres.Trump to eliminate that shit
And get your freedom back!! Seriously
Donman prez is busy trying to eleminate n.koreas lil fat kim no way he gonna deal with truckers who keep the nation movin.
WTF the weigh station turned into A corner store real quick
Those dot cops should not have treated you like that they sure are very disrespectful to truckers.
I got a question for a cop is it hard to train to become a cop in training?
Rule#1 You have the right to remain silent.... I wouldn’t have told him too much, I think you telling him that you vlog on RUclips made it feel as if he had something to prove
see what happens when you steal JB hunts fuel
Jeffrey Mather ,😂🤣
HAHAH
Wait a sec... This guy is a GENIUS! Be so annoying and lame that they want to kick you out of their office and not keep you any longer than possible
And put u out for 10 hours. Put a lid on the crappy, bathroom talk. TMI, driver. Stick to the shortest, possible answers. Heck, he might have just let him slide on outta there if he'd a done that. Dummy
You guys need to stop that going up and down shit. Just make the dam log book look simple as possible and they don't even look at it that hard.
I remember reading some parts of the FMCSA refs that said you can not drive a loaded truck after your time if service is up. You fan for a short distance unloaded, or bobtailing
Silence is golden. Keep your mouth shut. Answer the questions. Ive avoided tickets by just answering questions and letting the officer do his job
Why doesn't a professional driver understand the simple rules of in service and out of service time? I'm also boggled that the driver doesn't have recollection of where he drops and picks up his loads for the previous week. If you don't have a good memory then maybe a hand written log might help explaining the eLog errors. a simple hand-jammed notebook log. My 2 cents.
those young troopers are looking for anything to write that man up for. gessh
***** it's just a terrible way to make a living off people who is trying to earn a living and supply the country with items they need
Shay Earl Yes, the Rookies are all like that. Its a joke.
***** my only issue is why go after trucks on small things but they don't really enforce rules and traffic for cars going down the highway. Least not down here in the south. Cars speed no blinkers tailgate and cut in and out of traffic. But a semi with one top marker light is out. Your getting stopped.
***** agreed. Sad but true. Especially out of state trucks don't have a chance. Someday we will strike to get our fairness. Dreaming
***** horrible. Trucking industry is the only one that year after year. Pay stays the same or goes down on freight. But expenses go up.
You seem too comfortable entering and exiting the cab. I had that fault. Missed bottom step, fell busted my skull. Result...Coded three or four times, no memory for the next three months, woke up in rehab being taught how to walk again, truck driving career ended because of seizures resulting from accident. Only job I ever had I truly miss, as driving was my passion. Still can drive personal vehicle but no class A or Class B, nor can I operate any machinery. Rough way to go out. Lesson learned..never take anything for granted, even something as simple as getting in and out of cab. By the way it was a conventional cab.
JBG got busted for not knowing the regulations
don't fully blame him. you'd be surprised how many others get, "busted for not knowing the regulations". wanna blame somebody blame the LAWMAKERS. they are the ones who keep screwing with the regs.
@@25mfd true.
Wait till it happens to you you little fucking nazi.
The commercialization of the DOT candy bars for truckers, business cards for on the road repair where the DOT get a cut for calling them just like tow trucks and cops in a accident scene.
Oh yeah, the trucking industry is a unlocked safe for the DOT. Under the full guise of "safety", the government "regulates" the trucking industry. I wonder how much money they collect in fines in a years time?
u talk too much, big problem
Hes trying to see if you abused personal conveyance. Personal Conveyance should only be used during breaks or looking for a rest stop at maximum 20 to 30 minute off-duty drive, if its an hour or more they get suspicious. Remember the FMCSA states the personal conveyance is under the inspector or officer discretion, meaning they decide if they approve it or not.
I used to just go around Wisconsin scales for this reason, it worth a few extra minutes of detouring but never dealt with their harassment.
So glad I stopped driving..... After 5 yrs of this kind of shit... I had enough.... I got to the point where I only answered the specific question with the least words possible. This is a great example of the SCAM that the State/DOT plays to justify its existence. It didn't take me long to loose all respect for these thieves. I drove in the days of a actual logbook.... I ran several at once.... the only way to survive the system.
Lmao this driver doesn't have a clue.. how many times you going to be put out of service before learning the laws lol
Are you kidding me Driver?!? You literally walked over the scaling equipment to get into the scale house?!? Man you’re lucky these were nice officers. You pulled nothing but bonehead moves at this weigh station
I went back to that part, in the first minute of the video. He sure did walk over the scales. Damn. Agreed, he pulled about every bonehead move possible at that coup. Hope he learned some valuable lessons here
Here is something that all truck drivers should remember! All DOT officers go by the book!! So READ THE BOOK,LEARN THE BOOK, AND LIVE THE BOOK if you plan on being and continue to be a truck driver!! It will save you from receiving a lot of tickets! If there’s a dot issue with your truck, fix it before they make you!! Pretrip/posttrip- know your truck! Simple!!
That's what's wrong with the trucking industry and the government controlling everything. For a simple mistake with all these new laws that no one understand including that guy they can place you out of service for 10 hours for literally a couple minutes.
This guy is scratching the bear constantly
I just stumbled on this channel; don't know jack about trucking but I will say this; these DOT state police check stations or what ever it is, is no convention for the brightest and sharpest. My brain cells were dying trying to follow both the driver and the cop. Wow.
Dude, what you are doing, in the end of the video you are instigating an argument and pissing them off. YOU got LUCKY for not getting a ticket.
Dont talk too much or ask questions like that after he told you, you are only going to get 10 hours and NO ticket.
He could turn around and tell you to fuck off and slap you with a ticket and youll be fucked. - OMG JBL - for the love of the world - be careful with shit like that..
I seen his face when you asked, that question, it ticked him off...... WAAAY Too chatty specially hostile questions like that in that very moment.
Im not even there and my fucking hands are shaking when you asked that question and I seen his reaction.... holy shit bro...... I love you and all JBL - but please shaddap....LOL
10 hours OOS, you got lucky he didn't slap you with a ticket for the falsified logs (even if, as you state, it wasn't done intentionally). He went easy on you. He is following the rules he needs to follow, AND being extremely professional about it and with you. THEN you decide to ask about laws and THEN basically saying he is giving you false information about helping press the brake pedal and lights.... At that point, if I was him, if I didn't slap you with the ticket before even with all of your rambling, I would have at that point...
Just saw this video, it's a good example of what not to say, the officer is not buying what he's selling, loose lip sinks ship😂😂😂😂😂🤔
Great video to remind me why I LOVE being a Van Expediter!!!
Good lord have mercy...you are a painful dude to watch interact with people. Stop talking so much...you are not clever and they don't want to be your friend.
You do it your way and He'll do it his way! WTF! So many Friggin' Professors out there.
dude screw you! just go and get a mcdonalds and shut it
You wore out your welcome with the DOT bud by talking too much. Should not have said that you hooked up and got paperwork. You should have said you stayed in the staging area.
THIS is the problem with these ELD's. WE are not allowed to conduct ourselves as regular human beings.
Uchchun, show me your papers. This is no longer American. You are now compelled to incriminate yourself. You have no 5th amendment rights as a truck driver.
The company and DOT own your arse when u sign up.
JBG, maybe you can pass the time reading Donald Trump tweets. lol sorry JBG, I just had to say it. lol
I thought the cop was pretty cool about it. I thought JBG was pretty cool about it. Nobody likes to get caught out of hours, but when the truck snitches on you, nothing you can do. I never just took 11 off & start running. 11:15-11:30. Every day. It makes the loads tighter, but I always manage to be on time.
I thank God I parked the truck take this crap and shove it...like some one said below SHUT UP...NO TALK OF CHILLI NO WONDER THEY DONT LIKE TRUCKERS. this video gets a rating of 6 flat tires.
I’ve driven a truck for almost 30 years now 20+ OTR the golden rule is ( , NEVER ) make small talk it’s not gonna help your situation. Be as quiet as possible and everything is NO or yes. These officers are trying to bust you.
Yeah, seriously.
This country has turned in to guilty by association, now go ahead and prove youre innocent.
You bring back a lot of memories. I drove from Sept., 2004 until Oct. 2009 for Werner. Longhaul driver. Longest run - Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to Lared, TX. 2007 got a brand new Freightliner Cascadia. ALL bells 7 whisltes in ti. Beautiful ride.
Thanks for sharing
There's nothing wrong with making conversation and being personable with people... there's just a time and place to do it. A DOT station is definitely not the time or place my brother.😂
But for a video content.. people are watching it making $$$$ right?
@@24juan68 absolutely my brother🤟😆🤘
@@24juan68 yeah. But all u accomplished there was a 10 hour oos. And no one wants to hear about ur bathroom issues. TMI. Ur lucky he didn't write u a ticket. Remember KISS....Keep It Simple Stupid. U rattled way too much and hemmed urself up into a 10 hour oos. U showed the rookies exactly what NOT to do at a coup inspection
you cant tell them you were at the office dripping off paperwork on Friday but then tell them you haven't had a chance to pick up your new sticker
as a new driver stuff like this is VERY useful to see. They can train you for alot on driving but this is something they cannot simulate.So VERY useful and good to know
HEY OFFICER, GIVE ME A PACK OF SMOKES WHILE YOUR AT IT. LOL
he should ask the cop to bring him some beers....but make sure it was less than 8 hours before back on duty
That one guy to his left.
It says here you went from Texas to Illinois in 10.5 hrs. But I see whete Google maps shows that as a 12 hr trip😆
I think I did that route years ago and looked at the routing on my laptop. I was like no way.
I think it took right around 10.5 hrs though because I always had my router set at 50 mph and Texas Oklahoma and Missouri are 75 and 70 so it's doable.
And computers show center of city to center of city which adds time as well.
The officer asked for him not to go the speed limit basically.
Next time you know....?
If it's doable it's friggin doable. Ain't no don't do that again stuff.
I mean they'd shoot someone in self defense in a really close call situation and would be told not to do it again. Ain't quote the same thing as being close on a load.
There are Ltl trucks that are ran on closely logged trips. But they've done it so much that they know exactly rain or snow how to go.
That is exactly the difference between doing and looking online and saying it's impossible.
Until you do it you don't believe it.
Anyone else grossed out with the bidet story? "Before I let go" he says....
Johnny just stop talking after they charge you.. ticket or out of service.. you just give him more . I support law enforcement but those guys are there to catch you making mistakes.. just answer direct questions and try to keep it to yes or no responses
and don't take the camera in there again or around them.. they will be forced to follow every law and enforce said law . they can't show favoritism to one Driver and not to another and then this video shows up.. could cause some issue... just some friendly advice from a guy who used to be on the officer side of the camera
The also like yes sir no sir hate dot fucks they lie too and try lying to a licenced clas 8 mechanic
@@FreemanWithrow Nice try. We need those cameras going to keep you on the up and up. Chance I will take every time.
I hate HOS regs and e logs. Reason #750 why I quit trucking. I remember being required to take a 10 hr break while I was wide awake....once my break was up I had only been able to get a few hours sleep. Then I was legally able to drive but tired. No flexibility for reality. Drivers are expected to be robots while living in a closet on wheels for weeks at a time.
Elogs is why I quit a decade ago. They literally cut my check in half. It was a new concept, back then, and dispatchers/planners weren't ready for them. Run legal/run broke. Shippers/receivers had no mercy for late deliveries and pick ups. U went to the bottom of the list. They had to 'work u in'. What would normally be a 2 hour deal to get live unloaded/loaded turned into 7. Fuk the DOT and their stupid, unflexible regs. Come work our job, boys. Let's see how ur silly regs work for u when ur trying to put food on the table and pay bills!
I was told by a dot that if you load out of somewhere and there is no where to park and u out of time you can drive off duty as long as you do not travel in the direction that the load is going.
All kinds of jacked up.. how do you not know the DOT rules. You have been driving like forever. If your wrong, your wrong. It's embarrassing to watch actually.
SlimCBreezy there are hundreds of rules. Trucking is THE most regulated profession in America
SlimCBreezy ever heard of who's more Sheboygan? If not, look it up 😂
This officer had no patience. Lol he was getting frustrated so quickly.
That’s similar to us here, our vehicle can’t move at all for 9 hrs on a reduced, or 11hrs on a normal break. It’s all recorded on our card that goes in the recording device. He seemed a half decent guy, however, it caused you a pain in the butt. Unlucky pal.
The arguing was the worst thing in the world. If you can't properly explain your story then don't. If you mess up your story then it's on you, you can't change it later on.
JBG really needs a refresher course in using the electronic log. Can't remember the publication date, but JBG was pulled over for improper use of seat belt. The log was questioned on that one also. JBG, hopefully here in 2019 you have learned to use the logger and keeping it accurate. Happy trails.
Two things first yard movement while off duty. Tell him you had to find a quiter place to park. Secondly did you notice the other drivers came in did there busineess then were excused even the can hauler was let go give them what they ask for and save your commentary whrn they let you go
I thought you had to show at least 15 minutes for loading, unloading, drop&hooks, pre-trips...I know there are some companies have a line 5 for personal conveyance, or allow the driver to drive so many miles bob tailing to get something to eat or go shopping... at least. Johnny didn't have to do a 34...
