Illinois Department of Corrections went past at 3:40.
😳😆😆😆
3:27 a paddy wagon!
Yup!!! You noticed! 👍
Hi nice view ❤❤
good work 🤠
Thanks for the ride Kev.
No?
Tanya: how are your brakes, Kevin?
Kevin: their not stopping!! 😨😨
😂😂😂😂
It is so many EVIL people in our country today I don't blame Law Enforcement for getting backup...
Yes. It’s probable much safer!
Speeding in a construction zone is also considered reckless driving.
👍👍👍
Respect sir 🫡 from England 🏴 take care out here.
Nice Video
It looked like you were following the Clampets going to Hollywood back in the 60’s,😂!
😅😅😆😆😆Or the Beverly Hillbillies.
How do you use the jake brake ?
Hi there! Here’s one of our videos addressing that very question. Hope it helps!

Back in late 80s , early 90s we used to run 1,000 miles in 24hrs.
Back when had log books 😂
😳😳😳😉
Love the bypass alert on dryvewyze

I’m going to orientation in Lincoln Mon 18 Sept
& I gave your driver code as referral
Thank you so much!!! We really appreciate that!!! We hope you have a great orientation and a satisfying and enjoyable career at Crete! Let us know how it goes and if you have any questions we can help with. Hope to meet you so we can thank you in person!
Started orientation today!
Congratulations!!! Good luck! Let us know how it goes!
@@TheJoyofTrucking I'm at mechanicsburg
I'm out running, headed down to Arkansas
How do you like your time at triple c trucking.
I wouldn't use that window squeegee on the headlights that's what turns them cloudy because the bug cleaning mesh scratches them!
Thanks for the tip!
Wish Arkansas took the check your breaks better and put more guard rails up. We went over a mountain side six weeks ago in the semi and trailer full of chicken. All brakes had felled us. Truck was destroyed and trailer was in three pieces. Over forty people said they can’t see how we walked away with what little injuries we had. They said our truck was the worse they ever seen and most that went over died. My right arm was burned from fingers to little above elbow. That was the worst injure. Rest just small cuts and bruises.
OMG!!! That’s terrible! So sorry to hear that! Glad you had only minor injuries!!! 🙏
Ugh, Nashville traffic can be quite a challenge to find the best route through.
I just finished orientation with Crete (after 10 years with Prime) They mentioned y’all’s channel a couple of times during orientation here.
The guy that passed you at about the 3 minute mark was on his phone. This really pisses me off.
Not good to hold phone and drive! We see it a lot.
US-95 southbound into Lewiston, Idaho has one heck of a long grade with 11 runaway truck ramps!! Have you ever driven out that way?
I don't like dumb dumbs who get in the middle lane and just park it there when they are going slow down or up the hill. Move over to the right 🥺 please.
👍👍👍
I wonder if the six police officers you saw were the ones who caught the prisoner whom escaped from prison two weeks ago and was on the run. He stole a rifle.
You never know…
Enjoyed the ride. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
They have a road ranger here in greenwood Indiana where i live. Love the content guys keep it up your doing great
Looking for the video that you showed the candy bar you buy at Wal-Mart I don't remember the brand of it can you put it up on your next video. Thanks safe travels

Tickets in your box. Welcome to the club
🤔🤔🤔
Funny this was your video today, i got cused out lastnight for going 55 on 80/94 which is 55 lol drivers where mad i wasnt doing 65 70 and threatend to call my saftey i told them go ahead. Its posted speed limit for a reason.
Good for you!!! Don’t let anyone pressure you! Protect your CDL!!
@@TheJoyofTrucking lol yea and im a owner op i cant afford to put a truck in the shop for stupid stuff.. been doing this for 7.5years and a 4th gen driver. No one pressuers me lol. You all need to make the walcott truckers jamboree next year.
Love riding along with y'all. I miss being out there. I always took 155 to Briley Pkwy coming thru Nashville just to see the Grand Ole Opry. Thanks for your vlogs.
So happy to bring you along with us!!
Loved the ride. Imagine the autumn colors here. My son used to drive over the road and often talked about Monteagle and the challenge of it. Keep up the good work and we will ride along.
👋👋👋🤩
I like the fact that CCC periodically sends those safety messages (tire pressure) out. Never know, it may prevent one driver from having a mishap.
👍👍👍
I go down mt Eagle I never stop at the top at brake check area
🤔🤔🤔If you’re in a large commercial vehicle we think it’s mandatory. And we believe better safe than sorry.
Yeah I Am One of the Guys 😂😂😂 I Don't Have Time NEXT 😅
😆😆😆
Kevin, Okawville is not between St Louis and Kansas City
You are right. He said from KC. Through St. Louis. After St. Louis he stopped at this Road Ranger. Thanks for paying attention to details though. We appreciate that!
🫶🏻🇬🇧
😊
How many miles do you run on an avg week with CCC?
When he runs it’s 3000. But because of taking home time it averages to less. Like 2600.
Five states in 29 minutes. Enjoyed the video. Have a great day.😊😊😊😊
Thank you! You too!
love your content... Always waiting for the next vid... keep it up... Question Can one get a trucking job in USA, when residing outside USA (ie in another country)
You would need to be legally able to work in the USA. And we think you’d need a CDL from a US State. If you’re a US Citizen residing in another country maybe it’s doable. But if you’re not a US citizen there are special H-2B visas.
That’s a highway that is known for drug runners ,Tennessee State Police are very strict especially speed I ran 81 a few times if I had to go Alabama they use have 5.0 mustangs
Ah! Interesting! Thanks for insight!
Another great video 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you 🤗!
🤗🙏
👍😃🤩
Those dynamic speed signs on I24 just started a few months ago. Now they just change the speed limit whenever there's a backup.
Yes. That was interesting!
First
You’re a Rock star!
🤔🤔😂🥁🎸😂
Thank you for sharing some lovely scenery watching from 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Glad you enjoyed it!! Our pleasure!!
I appreciate it
Is there a rhyme or reason to when they let you bypass the scales? Can they see your manifest in advance?
Sorry. We don’t know how it works.
When you picked up that trailer it lookled like the passanger side of the fifth wheel was drying out may want to check it.
Thank you for keeping an eye on things! Appreciate the heads up!
Hola Kevin & Tania,
Does Kevin’s truck have the “automatic braking/collision warning system” on it?
If so, has it ever just have dashboard light up RED… then slam on brakes as it thinks your going to collide with something? It’s very scary when it happens.
Safe travels!
Yes, indeed! That’s happened. Not pleasant!
Yeah I'd be the same way I would never park there it's too risky for me.
👍👍👍
Very beautiful scenery today. Stay safe my friends. God bless you both. 🙏🙏🇺🇲
😃👍🤩👋
It was good to see yall coming through my neck of the woods. I drive a daycab in the Nashville area. Enjoyed the ride along video today.
👍😃👋👋🤩
Enjoyable! Stay safe 🐾
👍👍
Road Ranger used to be part of Pilot flying j.
Ahhhhh. Thank you for the insight!
Good morning Tanya & Top guy Kevin 😊 In the U.K. & Europe when a HGV overtakes we flash then in so they know it’s safe to come back into the lane and usually the driver will thank you by putting his 4 way flashers or indicator each way too say thanks 😊 Do you do this in American 🇺🇸🤔 How’s the new home coming on? Keep safe guys from a U.K. trucker 🏴
Hi there!!! Yes, some drivers do that in US as well. But not many. 😔
In case you or others might not know, that custom came about when most roads (pre-freeway times) were two lanes, and when a truck was passing another it was hard to see exactly when you had cleared the passed truck, so the passed truck would flash his headlights as soon as it was safe (and maybe sometimes before when on coming traffic showed up unexpectedly) for him to come over. Yes, kind of a lost custom. I know I always do and even today when in my four-wheeler, I do it because I know I appreciate the blink when driving a big rig. @@TheJoyofTrucking
@@Kalamabbfan Very cool! Thanks for that insight!
Thanks guys! It's common courtesy to get the hell out of the passing lane when you're going too slow. Especially commercial trucks who have fewer passing options than passenger vehicles. Maybe they only have 1 or 2 jake brake options, and they have a more direct path to the emergency run-off sandpit on the left side of the highway. Benefit of the doubt.
Hey you two, I wanna be a daytime trucker 😆💛
😆🤩👋👋👋
Beautiful Country, thanks for the ride, be safe.🎉❤
👍🤩🥰
Where I live in southern New Jersey in any construction 🚧 zone speeding tickets are 500 to a 1000 15 or more you will pay the 1000 fine and probably be fired be safe guys had have a safe trip to Georgia
