{"replyTo":"","text":"I pull a step deck, so most of the time wind is not a problem for me, unless I have a really light, high profile load. In the end, if you do not feel it is safe to drive, park it and wait it out.","replyToPid":0}

147103 发表于 2021-03-30 16:09:05 I been out here 30 plus years. I don't pull a van I pull Rgn.  My center of gravity is different.  I tell everyone same about driving in wind or snow. Do what's comfortable to you. Don't let your employer force you. It's you the cops will come see. If you have accident. Protect your career

","text":"thank you driver for your  service in protecting our country. my dad was a marine in the 2nd ww and was also driver. he passed away a few years ago and not a day that goes by I don't miss hearing about his stories about the open road..thank you again sir","replyToPid":421355}
