I am heading to Utah as well. I was heading to California but I switch load with two guys running team, because they can get to California faster, and I took their load going to Utah. 😂
Wrong. You cannot advance load, so you have to drive backwards with PC. Also, depends on company, some allow 30 mins while other 2 hours of PC. Hell, I've worked at one with no pc was allowed at all. 😂
Yeah the parking wasn’t backwards. I would be advancing the load if I pc. It was in a very tricky situation. You’re right, I cannot advance to load using PC, that I knew at the time
@@offroadvehicleloverif you was on shipper or receiver and runs out of hours you can used PC no matter if you advance the load But must go to the closer rest safe place or parking And if this safe place is on direction to advance your load isn't a problem But don't drive 100-200 miles bcz they will not believe you that you don't find a safe place to park
@@offroadvehiclelover you can go from a shipper the closest place you can shutdown but leaving the shipped your block has to be at 0… 14 hour clock has to be completely used up and your time expired while getting loaded. But if you master your logs and do great trip planning you typically won’t have those issues
@@GPROMOTIONS that sounds fair, even though I was thinking I cannot advance the load with PC. I will contact my log teacher again and ask her. She did mention this but I heard so many other things I forgot what she said about pc and advancing loads using pc. 🤦🏽♂️
I have trucker path on my phone but they want me to pay a monthly fee. So what I do is , find the truck stop address on the trucker path, then put it in the truck gps
Blessings to you brudda *jamaican voice* lol one question though, do you get to pick loads in states you want to go to or do you go where dispatch wants you to go?
Anywhere dispatch send yo. Or I think you can request to run the north east, and mid west section m, I am not sure. I go anywhere dispatch send me. Wednesday was in Florida, then they send me to New Jersey, then from Jersey to Utah. I am in Utah now. 💪🏾😃
Hey I love your videos ima rookie driver as well what I do is I start my shift early like 6 am everyday so in case your 11 hour runs out it’s still early to find parking and it works every time that’s my advice. Be safe bro
Thanks for watching the channel Anthony😃. I start my shift at 11pm and run until 9-10am I am on my way from New Jersey to Utah , and I’ve only been driving nights. But maybe my next load I will see if my schedule can run at day time. I love might driving though, because I get better fuel mileage, I just let it roll down the highway lonely 😂
@@RomaneTheTrucker nice I’m in Washington but yea I drive days because I notice all the truckers like to shut down at night and you can’t find parking so I start early and I usually find a place stay safe bro
Thank you😃 I tell stories on my other channel, I created a series that I think you will love. I am in season two of this story, it’s about 26 episodes in total so far. Click the link and it will take you to my other channel ua-cam.com/play/PLhM9gxBrDiFrO28v8Vr9Ye9zOtyn3xmeY.html&si=CZcpN2qD7XSi4o-F
I thought of taking a split break, but there was no place to park and take that 8/2 split. Maybe one day I will get to. Outage to park up on the side of the road somewhere and don’t feel too scared of the cops lol. The Closes parking was a hour away. The shipper was ready to load me so I went there thinking I could get the load and have at least 2-3 hours to drive to a truck stop in Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania was 70 miles away from where I picked up. A truck stop was right there as I enter Pennsylvania on i80. I am learning though I think the 8/2 split would be perfect but I was scared to park on the side of the road 😂😂
@@RomaneTheTruckerNot sure if you know by now, but assuming from the comment you don't. Once you stop @ warehouse to check-in and get a door, wait for more than 2 hours you qualify for 8-2 split. Just have to switch it to sleeper birth. Then you're clock would've froze with however much drive time and 14h clock also. Live and learn. Safe travels.
Oh I thought I would have to spend 8 hours in the sleeper if I had split 😂😂 so you’re saying I could have spent two in the sleeper to froze the clock 😮. Live and I learn. I am still a rookie, I will fully master this split break more. If I could go back I would split break as soon as I back into the dock 🤦🏽♂️
@@RomaneTheTrucker all you have to do is on duty checking in at customer/ pickup drop trailer register that for 15 mins and go off duty for 2 hours and you would’ve being cool chilling
Oh cool, I. Understand now. I even heard getting load I have to be on duty but I always think that will eat up the 14 lol. Now I will do split if I don’t have enough time. 💪🏾😃
It’s always a great thing to get a load on your back before taking your break. Even if you have 10 minutes on your clock. You can sleep so much better knowing the work is done and wake up just having to drive. It’s even better if they take over 10 hours to load you, so you won’t need to park. I love when I can get the new load in the same shift as getting unloaded
Yeah, I wanted to keep rolling, when I drop off that load I wanted to just pick up the second load and drive out the rest of the clock then shut down. Knowing when I wake up from the 10, I could just keep rolling. That’s exactly what I did, but time almost got me 😂 now I am all the way in Iowa 💪🏾
Now I am heading out west, there are truck stop everywhere 😂. I am in Nebraska now at a loves and so many spots were available I didn’t know which one to choose 😂. I take the easier parking spot though. A easy pull through.
I said t same thing when that light comes on start sweating n talking to myself yelling in t truck n no one can hear me yea it does something to t body n mind set for sure be safe n keep rolling n posting💪
Next time u have little hours on ur clock ask the office where u get ur paperwork about local parking areas, its hit r miss but can help u find closer parking, and ask them if they offer overnight parking on there lot as well.
That’s what I am realizing now. I thought split break was 8 hours in the sleeper berth. If I could go back I would split break as soon as I back into the dock😂I am learning 💪🏾😃
Thank you 😃 that feeling ain’t no joke. Especially when the lights change to red or traffic moving slow. I talk to myself the whole time, finding fault with every 4 wheelers in my way. When the light change to green I am saying,” hurry up, hurry up “ 😂😂
She said it was ready when I call, and she said they are not busy. But she ment I could come early to get live load 😂 I should have split break for the 2 hours in the sleeper, I made a rookie mistake 🤦🏽♂️💪🏾
Way to go RAsta Man, I'm no trucker, but the shipper played ya. Thigh but dock and paperwork @ guard shack 😮. At least an hour or more wasted. Thanks for the info truckers, I'm ask my wife if i can split my clock. When it's my day too do the chores 😅. Stay Safe, Stay Righteous 🙏. Olu out.
I know the shipper played me, but I just didn’t make him any smarter. Also giving me that dock was a set up. There are people out there who like to mess around, but I won’t be the one to accuse them of it, I just act like I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t get upset too easily so it’s hard to test my patience out here. God bless Olu, stay save brother🙏🏾😃
I was thinking of if I PC one hour to the rest stop and take a 10 hour break. I would have to come back to pick up the load at 7pm and I would be late. Also if I had pick up the load I don’t think it legal to PC with the load to the truck stop. I would be using pc to advance the load. 😂 I thought about everything and my best bet was to go pick up the load and get out of NJ to PA. But getting load eat up the clock.
So apparently I messed up my clock, I should have use a split break to freeze my clock. Big rookie mistake by me. I am still learning the game🤦🏽♂️😂💪🏾 Ps use my driver code when applying for prime Inc on your application:MCKRNE ✅
I am still a rookie and a company driver, I don’t want to be turning loads down right away 😂. But shippers should have overnight parking for drivers. Even if it’s just 5 spots.

Does the shipper you picked up at allow overnight parking? I know it was during the day but if you asked them could you do your ten hour break there and they had a lot of area where you could park you could of gotten your 10 hrs out the way there. Just a fruit for thought.
There were no parking at the shipper. But of if I run into situations like this again I will definitely ask the shipper or receiver if I can take my break there. I think they closed each day that’s why. If it was a 24 hour shipper maybe I could park inside there. Lots of space was at the shipper but no parking. They want me gone 😂
That’s what I learned from sharing the story with you guys today. Now if I run into the situation again, I will freeze my clock with a split break. I thought once my clock is counting down, I cannot stop it because there’s not enough hours left in the 14 to split break. But I had it totally wrong. I am happy I ran into the situation and know this now . Big rookie mistake by me. 🤦🏽♂️😂
@@RomaneTheTrucker it’s a learning process. I lead to learn it and so did every other truck driver that uses it. It will definitely save you time and help you make a little more money
Some say it’s easier with the tandems at the back. I was thinking about sliding them back and see if I could get in there, but I just went inside and request a next door.
Bro, the last clip u showed us, i saw you dont check the box where it says, " will pair SB." You need to check that box and leave it like that, or you won't be able to do split break 🤝🏿
I didn’t do a split break, I didn’t know I could spend two hours in the sleeper instead of 8. If I could go back to the situation, I would split break as soon as I back into the dock. Froze the clock for the two hours I was there.
H is-saying it should be checked anyways because sometimes you will do a split and not even plan so just in case have that checked. It won’t hurt will only help you
I cannot pc into the direction the load is going. And the parking available was in the direction the load was going. I thought an hour would be ok to drive 43 miles, but I forget I was in Jersey , that’s not possible, but some how I did it 😂. I should have done a split break I am understanding. I could have spent that 2 hours in the sleeper 🤦🏽♂️😂 big rookie mistake by me
You can also find a local Walmart and park behind it as if you're waiting for delivery.. just hide in plain sight.. it helps when nothing is near you and get your shopping done.
If I was in a different state I could even park on the road, lol but jersey not even on the road I saw any spots. I saw on spot and a Landstar truck was parked there. Also some Walmart don’t want tractor and trailer there, only bob tail
Be careful though bc not all Walmarts will let you part there. Even in the loading area in the back. Depending on the state you are in. Some Walmarts have signs saying g you in a tow away zone. If you not delivering there you can’t be there long extended periods of time. If you shopping you better tell a manager in the store. Shop and leave. Not every Walmart in the country is trucker friendly. Even if you deliver a load there they want you to deliver and leave. So be careful of the Walmarts you park at…make sure they are trucker friendly
Hey roman ,i just get upgraded, i m at Springfield Terminal , i see that you are company driver , i m wondering if you like it or not , is it worth it when its comes to money or not ??
Company is paid per miles. So it all depends on how many miles you drive on the loads I get. I got paid for the one load I did last pay period. I just started, so I can’t speak too much on pay. But I am getting lots of miles though 😃
U cant do anything in reefer at the last minute bro . U will find out live loads and unloads take forever . Every now and then its quick but reefer is a waiting game if u havent noticed when u was with your trainer !
Yeah I’ve seen loading take 7 hours before 😂. Because I call ahead and they said it’s ready, and they are not busy I thought things would be quicker than 2 and half hours to load. I should have split break for two hours. I learn I can sleeper birth for two hours. I was thinking it has to be 8 😂😂🤦🏽♂️ rookie mistake by me
I know now, I didn’t know I could spend 2 hours in the sleeper and stop the clock. I thought it was 8. I learn something by sharing this story. Big rookie mistake by me 🤦🏽♂️😂
I downloaded it this morning. That’s what I use to find this loves I am parked up at. They want me to pay but I am not paying to use it. I just use the map to see what’s close then, put the address in my truck gps 😂
Not $900 for a whole year. You can get paid by leasing or get paid by being a company driver. Company driver get paid by the mile they drive, and lease guys get a percentage on the load they carry. In training you get $900 gross check each week and that’s for 3 months training, I heard two month trading now. 😃
@@RomaneTheTrucker please I want to ask you a question, I already have my license so I want to find out if I go to a company will they teach me how to drive the truck before me going to do the DMV for the road test.
Prime will teach you everything. Go watch my old videos I talk about getting my cdl at prime Inc. All my videos are connected. I talk about what happened from day one until now. If you want you license through a company who will teach you how to drive, prime do that. Go watch my videos and all your questions will be answered

It’s getting better, I feel more comfortable backing without a trainer.
You need to ask for another Dock since your Rookie. Try backing with tandems to rear.
Some say it’s easier with the tandems at the back. I was thinking about sliding them back and see if I could get in there, but I just went inside and request a next door.

You have to show pistol 10-15 minutes with that 1 minute put some notes about that situation.
You can also find a local Walmart and park behind it as if you're waiting for delivery.. just hide in plain sight.. it helps when nothing is near you and get your shopping done.
True but it dont work in EVERY case and in Jersey u gotta be real careful how u move
If I was in a different state I could even park on the road, lol but jersey not even on the road I saw any spots. I saw on spot and a Landstar truck was parked there. Also some Walmart don’t want tractor and trailer there, only bob tail
Be careful though bc not all Walmarts will let you part there. Even in the loading area in the back. Depending on the state you are in. Some Walmarts have signs saying g you in a tow away zone.

U cant do anything in reefer at the last minute bro . U will find out live loads and unloads take forever . Every now and then its quick but reefer is a waiting game if u havent noticed when u was with your trainer !
Yeah I’ve seen loading take 7 hours before 😂. Because I call ahead and they said it’s ready, and they are not busy I thought things would be quicker than 2 and half hours to load. I should have split break for two hours. I learn I can sleeper birth for two hours. I was thinking it has to be 8 😂😂🤦🏽♂️ rookie mistake by me
Guess you don’t know how to split the clock
I know now, I didn’t know I could spend 2 hours in the sleeper and stop the clock. I thought it was 8. I learn something by sharing this story. Big rookie mistake by me 🤦🏽♂️😂
Use trucker path it’ll help you
I downloaded it this morning. That’s what I use to find this loves I am parked up at. They want me to pay but I am not paying to use it. I just use the map to see what’s close then, put the address in my truck gps 😂

God is showing me that he’s here with me. Down to The last minute! And I was safe💪🏾😃🙏🏾
I want to join prime inc in July, I want to ask a question, I had that prime pays $900 to new truck drivers for 1 years is that true.
Not $900 for a whole year. You can get paid by leasing or get paid by being a company driver. Company driver get paid by the mile they drive, and lease guys get a percentage on the load they carry. In training you get $900 gross check each week and that’s for 3 months training, I heard two month trading now. 😃
Thanks for the information I hope I will meet you one day, am planning to come to prime this July.
Good luck James, if you watch my older videos I break down what to expect when you come to prime. Each video is me giving updates on what’s happening
@@RomaneTheTrucker please I want to ask you a question, I already have my license so I want to find out if I go to a company will they teach me how to drive the truck before me going to do the DMV for the road test.
Prime will teach you everything. Go watch my old videos I talk about getting my cdl at prime Inc. All my videos are connected. I talk about what happened from day one until now. If you want you license through a company who will teach you how to drive, prime do that. Go watch my videos and all your questions will be answered
