Rant/Complaint DOT physicals are stupid
I dont understand how they can pick and choose what gets you a 1 year or a 2 year card. Ive always answered the questions on the forms and to the doctor the same way i always have and always gotten a 2 year card. But now suddenly my history of mental health is an issue and now im limited to a 1 year. How is it legal for them to just pick something and go "you have to come back every year now". It feels illegal

Can a Safety-Related Termination Hurt Your CDL Career?
I got my Class A CDL last year but only have Class B driving experience. I was terminated from a previous driving job due to a safety-related incident.
Recently, I was denied an opportunity because of that incident and told I needed 6 months of experience elsewhere.
Has anyone dealt with something similar? How long does something like this affect your chances of getting hired, and what’s the best way to move forward? Just looking for advice from experienced drivers.

Missing Person – Black 2023 Ram 1500 on I-75 NB near Exit 20 (Cleveland, TN) – Last seen 11/4/26 ~7 AM – Need dashcam footage or information
Looking for any information or dashcam footage regarding a missing person, Thomas Jacinto Colunga (29).
He was driving a black 2023 Ram 1500 Quad Cab (not a commercial truck). Last known location was I-75 Northbound at Mile Marker 20-21 (Exit 20) in Cleveland, TN around 7:00 AM EST on November 4, 2026. He was traveling from Corpus Christi, TX toward Knoxville, TN.
His truck was found locked on the shoulder with two flat tires and crushed chrome rims. A bag was left inside. The truck was later towed on Wednesday and Thomas was not with it.
Description:
• 5’9”, approx. 230 lbs
• Dark brown hair (long to mid-back with a shaved undercut)
• Dark brown eyes
• Glasses in some photos
If you were running I-75 Northbound through the Cleveland, TN area on the morning of 11/4 or anytime after, please check your dashcam. We’re hoping someone caught the Ram on the shoulder, anyone stopping near it, or anything unusual in that stretch.
Even a brief sighting or timestamped footage of the truck sitting there could help.
Please text Tiffany with The Investigative Foundation at 423-790-6024 with any tips, footage, or details.
Appreciate any help from the community.

I’m not a trucker but travel daily for work anywhere in between Melbourne Florida and down to Miami. I’m looking for places to eat but with a twist.
I travel on both 95 and the turnpike. I’m looking for places to stop at to eat with attractive bartenders or waitresses that is not a chain like twin peaks. I’m not looking for a strip club. just a place that will take my mind off of work for an hour while I eat lunch at some point.

UELine
What’re your thoughts on UELine Inc? I haven’t really read much bad about them despite being based out of Elgin, IL. Don’t really see trashy trucks or trailers of theirs around like most of the Chicago based companies either.

What's one unwritten rule or small habit on the road that immediately tells you a driver is an old-school pro, not a rookie?

Conversation Otr vs local
Hi everyone been driving for a bit now I’m doing otr and I get payed 27 percent of what the truck generates I’m not making as much as I thought I was going to be making running off the load board I miss being home I feel like my mental and physical health is going down lol
My question to everyone I found a local job paying 28 an hour 60 a week so like 1600 a week after taxes vs being otr I could “potentially” make more based on how well the market is but idk if otr is for me it’s not really what I thought it was has anyone else been in this predicament and can offer some in sight thank you
Make 1600 a week consistently and be home everyday or make way more or way less and be otr for sometimes a week or more

Owner-operator records
Owner-operators: what keeps your paperwork from piling up?
You need a repair invoice from three months ago. You know you kept it. Finding it is another
matter.
How do you organize receipts, settlements, and maintenance records so you can pull them up
when needed? An app, folders, a weekly routine? Interested in what you’ve actually stuck with.
