0:56
I'm trucker mouth. Welcome to my underground studio
1:00
and this is the road man. I've been trying here to I've
1:06
been trying here to get this better back here added lighting.
1:12
I've been messing with this camera all morning here and kind
1:19
of make this I want to make it bigger.
1:25
I don't have because I don't want to make it the biggest then
1:36
it then it gets it gets blurry. So I'm trying some things here.
1:42
We can see my backdrop, my backdrop better.
1:45
It says trucker mouth on the wall, spray painting trucker
1:49
mouth. And that's what it is.
1:53
So, you know, I could have something superimposed back air
1:58
this and that. But this, this is trucking my
2:00
studio. You know, I mean, I had one of
2:02
them little tick tockers telling me, well, would you have that,
2:05
that nobody's going to nowhere to watch you.
2:07
Hey, you like it or you don't. You know, I'd do more than I'd
2:11
do more than take a ride on a roller coaster and and and and
2:15
and stream for record for, you know, a minute or two.
2:19
So, OK, well, let's get going here.
2:27
Oh, by the way, this just this just in diesel prices that are
2:31
all time high. The national average for diesel.
2:37
Come on, I'm not going to sit everywhere is like 651 a gallon
2:44
for diesel. I mean that's that's this this
2:48
trucker can't win 651 a gallon. I'm sorry for all this and it's
3:00
just just atrocious. I mean I don't know how to I
3:04
don't know how the the owner rapper, the single owner rapper
3:08
is going to ever make it man ever again.
3:10
Now see if I make this full screen.
3:14
What you know what that that didn't go the whole screen.
3:17
That's good. I like it right there and I
3:20
don't know. No one showed me how to do
3:22
anything. I learned this stuff on my own,
3:23
man. So thanks for tuning in
3:26
everybody today. OK, what topic we want to talk
3:29
about is the Build America 250 Act.
3:32
It's the new highway bill and it's got a lot of good stuff in
3:40
that that we need. We need to get this belt going.
3:46
OK, straight here. I see that my, my lighting, my
3:49
lighting in the back did good. OK, I did a light and I messed
3:53
around with this thing. Peter.
3:56
Anyway, the new highway bill incidentally, incidentally, the
4:02
the first highway bill was was enacted July 11th, 1916 and it
4:08
was the the Federal Aid Rd. Act, the first Federal Highway
4:14
funding program in U.S. history was signed.
4:18
Legislation was instrumental significantly extending and
4:21
improving the nation's roads. So July 11/19/16 was signed.
4:28
Farmers who need to travel to deliver goods were among those
4:32
who sparked the growing interest in the better roadways.
4:36
Supreme Court case OK Federal Aid Rd.
4:42
Act was by ruling that the Commerce Clause authorized
4:45
Congress to construct Interstate highways.
4:48
By 1917, the highway agency to administer federal funds was in
4:51
place in every state, OK and the World War One slowed the
4:58
progress, but the Federal Highway Act of 1921 addressed
5:01
those issues. So a little bit of history
5:05
there. 1916 with the passage of the Federal Aid Rd.
5:11
Act the national congression national government again man
5:19
stated its interest in highway improvement manifested its
5:24
interest in highway safety and within a year the grim traffic
5:27
of a war proved the need of federal aid.
5:30
OK just give you the history on the highway bill.
5:32
This highway bill got a lot of good stuff in it man.
5:34
We need to get it going now is this won't be able to be able to
5:41
see me right now so. Didn't see me.
5:49
All right, all right. So the current highway bill was
5:53
was set to the current highway bill was set to expire on
5:57
September 30th, but we bought some time Congress bought a
6:01
little more more than time until December 11th.
6:05
So we got to it was supposed to expire.
6:08
The last one was postpired, like I said, September 11th, but we
6:11
got it, We got it extension till December, December 11th.
6:21
Yeah, September 30th, the current higher bill is going to
6:24
expire September 30th, but we got now we got until December
6:27
11th and we need to get this through Congress and need to
6:29
pass. Here's some good things that
6:31
that this bill has. There's a lot of good shit in
6:33
here, $580 billion in infrastructure and safety.
6:41
See, that's your bridges, that's your bridges, man, your
6:44
highways. And that's a lot of work for
6:46
people, man, that that's a whole lot of work for people.
6:51
You know, they, they, they get, make a lot of money doing them.
6:55
People do roads and highways and, and, and, and the bridges
6:57
and that, man, they get a lot of scale money.
7:00
I mean, that's, they make big money.
7:03
We need to get that going. Expanding truck parking across
7:05
the country. And you know what I used to tell
7:07
people, right? Well, man, it's hard to find a
7:10
place to park. What do you mean it's hard to
7:12
find a place to park? Dude, this ain't 40 years ago
7:15
when you could just park, you know, on a, on a, an exit ramp
7:21
or something. Like even around here when I was
7:22
younger. Let's just go back a little more
7:24
than that. Maybe you always see a truck
7:27
parked or parked, a truck or two parked or an off ramp or an on
7:31
ramp somewhere. I don't understand why you can't
7:34
do that, but states are not allowing it.
7:39
I understand some situations, some of these big rural areas
7:42
you get to, I mean, they got, there's just trucks everywhere
7:46
and it people parked some of the places they got to do stuff all
7:50
over. They don't.
7:52
So then they've got truckers access to restrooms and shippers
7:55
and receivers. And believe it or not, there's
7:58
some inhumane bastards out there.
8:00
They some sometimes they'll have porta potties out there for you
8:05
and the truckers use them, you know, and other times don't just
8:11
act like, you know, not you don't have to use a bathroom or
8:15
something. I don't know, But that's just
8:16
that's rare that you can't use the bathroom at all.
8:18
I've been to places then one place up in Massachusetts, it
8:21
used to act like you walked in the door and you were in a cage
8:27
and the, and the desk over here through the the window in the
8:29
cage and there was no access there at all to that one.
8:34
That's and I had places already as little places.
8:36
Ray, too. No, you can't use the bathroom.
8:38
I wouldn't use them anyway. Telling trucker mouth can't use
8:41
the bathroom, man. OK, so crack down.
8:44
And then another thing it's going to do is crack down the
8:46
predatory, predatory lease to own schemes.
8:51
Yeah, we know who's doing that. Your big ones, your England's,
8:55
your primes. Yeah, I'm naming this.
8:58
Sue me. You ain't going to get nothing
9:01
According to the American Trucking Association, only one
9:04
trucking. I I said this before only one
9:06
trucking spot for every 11 trucks out there, one safe truck
9:12
slot out there for every 11 drivers, every 11 trucks on the
9:16
road. Now I mean that that's that's
9:21
sad. You know, you work all day long,
9:25
you, your eyes are bleeding, you're starving, you need a
9:28
shower, 'cause you're, you look like you're homeless and you
9:31
can't even find a place to park to go take care of yourself and
9:36
relax a little bit. But that, that's, that's the
9:38
next segment here I'm doing today.
9:40
Sorry. Then we got, let's say Congress
9:43
bought a little more time until December 11th.
9:48
Republican Mike Boast, Republican Illinois crafted the
9:53
Truck Parking Safety Improvement Act, which would dedicate $755
9:59
million for added truck parking. And it is needed, man, there's
10:05
there's, there's, there's. Like I said, blame it on it's
10:09
hard to find a good place to park.
10:10
But I seen your big city areas, man.
10:12
It's and you get to areas like Elizabeth, NJ and Newark and all
10:17
up there around the porch. They ain't nothing but trucks.
10:20
I mean, it's, it's, it's doggy it, it doggy dog is vicious.
10:25
You step on someone's toes, man, They're out of the truck after
10:27
you. The Build of America Act
10:32
included, boasts his bill. So the Build of America Act is
10:36
going to include this, this guy's bill and they're going to
10:39
put 150 million, a 150 million a year for five years.
10:42
And then that's the 750 million he's talking about.
10:49
So that's some good shit there. That's some good shit there,
10:52
man. We need that.
10:53
We need this bill passed. So during the pandemic, reports
10:56
of truckers being denied restrooms as shippers received
10:59
prompted Republican Troy Nells, Texas, to introduce Truckers
11:03
Bathroom Access Act, requiring shippers receivers to make
11:07
available at the facility. You got, you know, you can't be
11:13
inhumane to these drivers, man. You got to give them access to a
11:17
bathroom proposal. The proposal struggled to fine
11:23
transit transaction has a stand alone bill.
11:26
What's included in the highway bill?
11:27
So this trucker's bathroom restroom act, it is included in
11:33
in the the build America act. You talk you talk Trump talk
11:37
about the the big beautiful bill.
11:39
This is the big beautiful highway bill.
11:43
The build Act 250 build America 250 act.
11:47
This is the big beautiful highway bill right here, man.
11:52
So under the bill and Erica, 250 Act prohibits motor carriers
11:56
from using predatory commercial motor vehicle lease.
12:01
Yeah. So it's going to crack down on
12:02
the predatory lease programs. Also lease purchase programs
12:05
that promise you everything in the world.
12:07
You don't get nothing. And they're just, you know, they
12:11
promise you everything in the world and, and, and yeah, but
12:18
they're, they're, they're far in between than anybody even renews
12:20
or at least, or ever gets a truck real, real far.
12:22
You know, I had this sharpie in my, I had this sharpie in my
12:27
briefcase. It snapped me at it for years.
12:30
And it, and it had the cap on it in my briefcase.
12:34
And I poured out you know what? I've been using this now for a
12:37
couple months. It's amazing.
12:40
It really is amazing. Well worth the money about it.
12:45
All right, so right, yeah, they're going to crack down on
12:49
them and predatory leases, man, get, you know, then people, then
12:54
people get into them leases, they, they, they lose their
12:57
credit, everything. Some people lose their houses #3
13:00
the highway bill involves numerous other things too.
13:02
Here's the other things that the bill includes crackdown on
13:06
freight fraud and other scams and trucking.
13:09
Then they need that. That's your brought your brokers
13:12
there and your and your cargo theft and shit like that there.
13:15
Introduce entry level driver training standards.
13:19
Man, you can't. I've seen some horrible drivers
13:23
out there. I was in a guy's truck.
13:26
He went to the New England school and he got into a lease
13:32
program, told him not to. He driving down the road.
13:35
He's the worst truck driver I've ever seen.
13:37
Big soda in one hand, cell phone the other.
13:42
He he was the worst truck driver I've ever seen and he became a
13:44
trainer manage that. So then we got a crackdown on
13:50
non compliant CDL schools. These CDL mills is pumping
13:53
people out man. You know they're cracking down
13:55
on them and that's included in the build America Act Build
13:59
America 250, the new highway bill and then it addresses
14:06
cabotage. OK crackdown on cabotage.
14:09
Cabotage is when a driver from Canada or Mexico comes in the
14:14
United States, OK and they're what they're supposed to do is
14:17
deliver their load, get a load going back down to Mexico or
14:22
Canada where we're coming from up or down.
14:24
No, they're not doing that. They're coming in and they're
14:27
running around the country that's capitize, OK.
14:30
They're only, they're only supposed to by law with through
14:35
the free trade agreement, Mexico Free Trade agreement or the
14:39
Canada, yeah, one of them things like that.
14:42
They're only supposed to come in and get a load going back as
14:48
soon as they can. And they don't.
14:49
They're running around the country stealing American
14:50
trucking freight. So they're cracking down on
14:54
that. And then also they're going to
14:57
make EVs contribute to the highway trust fund.
15:00
So they're going to make electric vehicles contribute to
15:03
the highway trust Fund, which I guess now they weren't.
15:08
Yeah, Yeah, that's that capitizes a big problem.
15:16
You got these sides coming around there.
15:17
They can't speak English. But first of all, they're
15:19
violating the they're violating the English proficiency law and
15:23
they're running around picking up freight from, you know, a lot
15:27
cheaper than what, what American, you know, American
15:29
trucking company can do for them.
15:32
And they're still in America's freight.
15:34
So Yep, this is the the the big beautiful Build America 250 act.
15:43
We need to get it passed and we need to get it passed soon.
15:49
So all right, what spot later on that?
15:53
And what we're going to do is see, I don't know how to
15:58
navigate through this damn thing all the time.
16:02
No, I don't want that big one. And freak.
16:21
Oh, I know. There we go.
16:28
I'll say, OK, well, we're going to take a little break here.
16:32
And when we come back, truck stops trucker's Oasis.
19:44
Hello everybody, Welcome back Rule the Road.
19:53
OK, so now we're now we're going to talk about truck stops,
20:00
unnecessary Oasis. Actually says the necessity
20:04
overlooked. That's when we'll call it so
20:08
it's a man these truck stops, man.
20:11
You know what now when you're driving all day and like I said,
20:15
your eyes are bleeding, you're starving to death.
20:17
You want to find a truck spot where you can go in there, man,
20:20
and, and, and, and dust off the funk from the road of the day
20:24
and you know, have, you know, clean up, have a, have a, have
20:28
a, have a decent meal and talk to some nice people.
20:32
And, and it just, it just man it, it's just, it's hard to find
20:36
out there. And I'm going to read a little
20:39
bit on truck stops. I got a whole lot of literature
20:41
here. I'm going to take my goggles up
20:44
and do this. Oh, break my damn glass.
20:47
OK, so lack of truck stops, like I said, it's, it's a, it's a
20:52
necessity overlooked. The lack of truck stops across
20:56
the country is a serious issue and you know, it affects the
21:03
safety and well-being the truck drivers.
21:05
It also poses challenges for emergency preparations because
21:10
there's going to be trucks everywhere.
21:11
And if the fire trucks need to get through or something, or
21:13
trucks every part they were, they might hold them up.
21:15
OK. So in short, many areas lack
21:20
enough truck stops and that's this area here I live in that
21:25
includes regions of high risk for disasters, public policies
21:28
off whatever looked the need for truck trucks of the truck
21:31
drivers. Sorry I have a stumbling again.
21:40
Despite the truck drivers, you know, being essential to
21:43
maintain supply chains, you often often operate under
21:46
conditions that lack basic respect for their time, safety,
21:49
and well-being. Despite truck drivers being
21:53
essential, which they, we are. Well, I was, they're, they're,
21:58
they're, they're, they're looked at as, as, as an undesirable a
22:04
lot of places. I mean, you're doing out there
22:06
what you got to do to survive. And, and if you're parking
22:08
somewhere else, supposed to be parked or I don't know, too
22:12
close to somebody's house idling, that, hey, that's what
22:15
it is. Researchers highlighted many
22:21
problems with truck stop availability and quality.
22:25
These issues worsened during the emergencies.
22:28
OK, No, no. Stakeholders in the trucking
22:31
ecosystem have a clear obligation to provide humane,
22:36
humane treatment or sufficient infrastructure, researchers say,
22:39
often led by drivers themselves. And I'm on workplace.
22:46
What the hell am I doing? From my experiences,
22:52
organizations such as under organizations such as OIDA and
22:57
Real Women and Trucking, as well as independent voices in our
23:00
interviews, have called for policies that prioritize that
23:03
prioritize human dignity alongside operational
23:06
efficiency. Yes, you got, you got, you got
23:11
to do something to to make this industry out on the road more
23:14
desirable or you're not going to.
23:16
I mean, no one wants to do it. And when I was a little boy, we
23:20
used to travel around with the the parents, you know, going out
23:23
to visit people in Ohio. We run the Turnpike.
23:27
I longed to be a road driver. Man.
23:30
I remember seeing them old Mumfrees trucks come flying by.
23:32
They were meat, meat haulers. I didn't know it.
23:36
I actually forgot it, but I think my dad did tell me one
23:38
time. But I during these podcasts I've
23:41
seen that the Mumfrees was a big meat haulers.
23:45
They're holding slabs of meat, beef in there.
23:49
And I longed to be, I longed to be a road driver.
23:53
Neither, neither have camaraderie out there.
23:57
OK, Get the camaraderie back. Look out for each other, OK.
24:01
And make the road desirable, safe and great again.
24:06
And you know what they're giving CDLS to to inmates?
24:12
Well, they're having inmate training program.
24:13
CDLS nonviolent, nonviolent, OK nonviolent inmates, OK, I
24:18
understand, but not a paper on it.
24:23
But what trucker mouth got disqualified in in 2013?
24:28
I can never drive truck again. The state of Pennsylvania
24:33
stripped me in my CDL and they're giving CDLS to, to, to
24:38
illegals, liberal immigrants to, to, to inmates, which I'm not
24:44
saying they're all bad, but and, and any, any, you know, they're,
24:48
he's pumping these CDLS out these, these CDLS schools and,
24:52
and, and, and here's what I'm doing.
24:53
I'm starting to go fund me for trucker mount to reinstate him.
24:58
But his CDL, you're going to see it, you watch.
25:02
So I mean, OK, let's get back here.
25:14
The lack of truck stops and parking in high risk areas is a
25:17
big problem. According to FEMA, HEART and 44
25:23
counties are at relatively high or very high risk for natural
25:26
hazards. Now these 29% lack rest areas or
25:30
truck stops from the big three operators.
25:33
Here's the big three operators and truck stops.
25:35
Your Pilot and your Flying J are together and your truck stops in
25:39
Merrick with your TAS. You can see the big, the big TA
25:42
and the A and your Petros are together.
25:45
The Big three provide half a nation's truck parking capacity.
25:50
Excuse me. Many of these counties are
25:52
hurricane or flood prone areas. Florida, North Carolina and
25:56
South Carolina and Florida, five of the 28 high risk counties,
26:01
black rest areas or big three truck stops.
26:04
As part of its Pro Trucker package, the Department of
26:07
Transportation in Steven, Florida, 180 million had more
26:11
than 900 truck parking spots. Yeah.
26:19
So again, 180 million to add 900 truck parking spots, stations.
26:25
That's great. There are also trucks stop
26:28
deserts like around here in crowded areas like Austin, New
26:31
Orleans, New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco.
26:33
Limited land may explain this. Truck parking is dense in the
26:37
middle of the country but sparse along the coast.
26:39
Yeah, there you get in the middle of country rock truck
26:41
parking, you get in your, your, your big cities and along the
26:44
coast, though, it's like around the ports down ain't nothing
26:47
about trucks. Nothing about trucks.
26:50
NBN truck stop deserts exposed drivers to safety and and
26:55
regulatory risks, especially if they have exceeded daily driving
26:58
times as defined by hours of service regulations and cannot
27:02
find a place to rest, researchers point out.
27:04
Yeah, Then you start, you start creeping around like say you
27:10
have a a delivery in this part of town, you can't find a truck
27:14
stop. You start creeping around that
27:15
area. And like I did, I, I, I rarity
27:18
planned. See, I ran New England a lot.
27:21
So I knew it's going to say in here that places I've been
27:27
familiar with. So I knew where to where to go.
27:31
New England around here on these coasts here, I'm in
27:33
Pennsylvania. You got when you run New
27:35
England, it was from the bottom of Virginia to Maine and as far
27:40
West as the in the in the Ohio, West Virginia, Ohio.
27:44
That's but the the the money per mile paid better.
27:49
The freight paid a lot better. And you knew pretty much knew
27:52
where you were at as far as truck stops went.
27:56
Yeah. So truck drivers need more than
27:59
just a place to park. They need basic facilities also.
28:03
Yeah, Richard shows the truckers prioritize availability and
28:07
quality of truck parking. Food and restroom dispatched
28:10
fines from recent truck. Yeah, no shit.
28:13
Truck stops with large parking lots get better reviews.
28:18
However, smaller lots or those with paid parking received
28:21
negative feedback during the pandemic.
28:25
Half of the negative comments were about paid parking.
28:29
Most of your ones were your big huge lots with your big huge
28:34
with the big huge lots have or the big truck stop to have
28:36
everything in them, all your amenities.
28:39
Any driver out there want to comment on truck stops?
28:42
This is the trucker mouth and you're on the trucker mouth
28:44
show. Come on.
28:50
What truck stop do you like, man?
28:51
What's the best one? Come on, get some feedback.
28:53
The Trucker Mouth show. Man, you're live.
29:01
So I have two radios here. I got them pumped up.
29:05
I got to move the antenna from one to the other.
29:07
I have a big Stardust over here, but I ain't never got it up for
29:11
this. Since I run that off, it works.
29:14
Ain't right there. I got a big Stardust right
29:15
there. Anybody want to tell me what the
29:17
best truck stop is? Come on.
29:19
You're on the truck. I'm out of show.
29:20
Oh, I don't know. You can do that.
29:27
Keep locking it. It's not that rackets out, that
29:32
base gets out pretty good. Yeah.
29:38
All right, so there's a drug of flexibility, too.
29:54
CBS are still the best way to talk to each other.
29:57
CB radio is still the best way you can get on.
29:59
You can get on these, these parking apps notice and your and
30:02
your your CB is the best way to talk to people and ask them
30:06
what's up with the with the area?
30:09
I got that light blowing in here.
30:12
What's up with the area that you're you're going to if they
30:16
just come out of there or anybody, anyone knows a thing
30:18
about it. And when everybody starts, when
30:22
everybody starts with that negativity and then big truck
30:25
stops at night time to turn the radio off.
30:28
Drivers are frustrated with the rise of paid parking, especially
30:32
surge pricing during peak times and also predatory towing out of
30:36
trouble. So you go to these paid lots.
30:39
I only came across paid lots a couple times.
30:42
Most times if it was a paid lot, if you went in and patronized
30:46
the, the, the, the restaurant or got fuel or something, then
30:51
they, they just sewed them out and they let you go.
30:55
Now out there, I guess there's all these, there's all these,
31:01
all these damn paid parking areas that that see a lot of
31:07
these paid parking areas or in inconvenient areas.
31:12
They're they're in areas that they're out in middle of
31:19
nowhere. There's no amenities, these big,
31:22
big pig lots. So they don't like them and you
31:25
got to pay like 1820 dollars to park your truck error and I
31:30
guess you claiming the taxes, but that's the end of the year.
31:34
That's not that's not getting the week.
31:37
So I'm looking for now I'm looking for a story about this
31:39
guy who who wanted to build a truck stop in Georgia and was
31:47
turned down right here. Man's bid to build a truck stop
31:52
in Georgia suffers near defeat. I got to see something once here
31:56
man. She only got 1/2 hour.
32:12
OK, so we are at I'm almost out of time live 33 minutes.
32:20
I've been live 33 minutes. All right, well, you know what,
32:28
this guy here, what, what it is this guy, I'm going to end with
32:31
this, this guy here in Georgia. On May 7th, the 11th Circuit
32:38
Court of Appeals denied William Corey's bid to construct a truck
32:42
stop off Interstate 20 in Rockdale County, just outside of
32:46
Atlanta. Atlanta has Atlanta needs those
32:49
truck stops. Atlanta needs truck stops.
32:52
I mean, there was this one place down there was a bar bar down
32:55
there. You could park there for like I
33:00
said, one of them deals where if you just went in the bar and
33:03
squashed it out. But it was it was a bad area to
33:05
park. It was it was it was, it was
33:08
seedy. Of course, it's places like that
33:10
that I I haunted out. But anyway, he the the, the in
33:16
1999 is when it started. OK, the the property he bought
33:21
was owned C2, which permitted convenience stores and gas
33:24
stations but implicitly prohibited truck stops were not
33:27
included them on the list of allowable uses.
33:30
So then he tried to say it was a travel Plaza, OK.
33:33
And they didn't buy that. And then Corey bought more land.
33:37
He bought more land to expand his property closer to the
33:40
Interstate in hopes of building a convenience store which sold
33:43
fuel to automobiles and heavy trucks.
33:45
But according to documents, most notably not a truck stop.
33:49
So he tried to pass it over to Travel Plaza, not a truck stop.
33:52
2018 Corey contracted with QuikTrip to construct the Travel
33:55
Plaza Quick trip the big down South, which would indicate
33:59
include up to 8 diesel pumps, truck scales and 10 parking
34:02
spots. But he was denied there also.
34:08
And 2018 Corey, I just read that Rockville County has evidence
34:17
that truck stops OK lead to crime, more crime, environmental
34:23
pollution, noise, trap traffic and lower property values.
34:30
I don't know about that more crime, but it's more crime.
34:34
If the area has more crime then it then it always had crime.
34:39
And they say about, you know, truck stops need to, you know,
34:42
prostitution, drugs and crime and all that, that means the
34:46
area already had it. And if you have, if you have a
34:49
truck stop with over 100 parking spots, you got 100 men out
34:54
there. Just say, just say, man, 100 men
34:58
carrying money around. You know, you're going to spend
35:00
money out there. And well, I got all this, all
35:04
this literature and, and I'll have time to read it.
35:07
But my, but my, my deal is, is, is yeah, if you have a truck
35:15
stop with more than hard spots, you used to have to have
35:16
security, OK, for the lock. And you know, and I don't deter,
35:23
I don't deter some of your shit. And showers during peak times
35:27
should be limited to 15 minute turn around.
35:29
You got these people getting out of their showers and the shower
35:34
and clean for 1/2 hour for no it should be 15 minute turn around
35:37
time when that person have that shower so the guy gets in there,
35:40
cleans up so the next driver can get in there during peak hours.
35:45
Get the camaraderie back on the road man.
35:48
Make it great out there again. Drivers look out for each other
35:53
coming in at my shower, look out for each other.
35:56
OK Make the road respectful job out there.
36:00
Everyone can do it. Have fun out there and make
36:02
money. Yeah.
36:07
So. OK, everybody.
36:09

36:14
