Its been awhile, i've been on the road trucking.. lol i've seen things that will have you laughing for days..but my over the road driving has come to an end for now. I even met a few OH'ers out there.

I was in Milwaukee WI, just finished up driving 11 hours. Did a driver change and an hour into the trip my dumb ass co-driver hit a low bridge.  He was going the wrong way and took an exit to turn around, he didnt read any of the 9 signs marking the bridge.. He made a left turn right into it.  I was in the front seat on my iphone, texting another OHer on facebook.. LOL

It really sucks cause I've lost 135lbs and I've felt the best ever only to go backwards to how i felt one year ago. My back, neck and legs hurt all the time now.  We were not even going that fast about 30 m*****ta love the seat belt injuries

Here are some pics of the jackass in motion..The bridge is 12'2 and we are 13'6.. lol not even close

Sorry to hear that you are hurting.  Lay low and heal up.  Way too many driver**** bridges - makes you wonder.

Get well soon Joe. I haven't been on here for a long time either. Hitting a bridge is a big no no in trucking. Worse than running out of fuel. Best wishes.

Oh my god what a idiot !    I thought you were going to work for CRST?   What happened there ? Got to ask did you gain weight while on the truck ? I want to go back to OTR, but the lack of exercise scares me, Because I,ve always ran teams with my husband.  You know from driving teams your always on the move ! Rebecca

All those signs and he still ran under the bridge. What was he thinking?
Hope you heal up real soon.

I hear they need bouncers in FL...Who can throw their weight around!!  Wait, I think those days are past...  Heal up...Listen to the doc and physical therapist.  Glad you're doing well with the weight...Don't let a bump in the road...or road block...or low bridge stop your dreams.  Brian
