Will your company find you some other route?

Besides the storm is where I am as well.

been trapped in several Blizzards out on the Prairie,hearing this is the only way to help prevent a the nightmare of cleaning up wrecked trucks and finding remains in buried autos. Wish more States would really put the hammer down. Seen people drive around the snow gates and the next day you find them down the road buried in the ditch with Rescue Squads attending to their remains.

It would save me a lot of stress and being put in dangerous situations. As a truck driver I'm expected to drive when the weather is bad most of the time. The only thing that keeps me from having to do it is when the law says no.

After a career of more than Forty years of Truck route and Car Route Sales,and being stuck in some of the mid-west worst blizzards,and spending the night trying to keep from running out of fuel in a White out,the first use of state highway snow gates was a true change. Mentioned this before,seen people go around these only to be found after the Storm passes by the Snowplow Guy's and Gal's in not so good condition.

The worst were the County and State roads were the so called locals became the victims of their own bull headedness. Always a Guy with a Gooseneck Trailer or someone who has time stops on his truck,and these folks get themselves sideways blocking both lanes causing all kinds of nightmares.. Watched a farmhouse go up in flames because of the Fire Trucks could not get around a sideways empty Grain trailer who thought he could bust a ten foot drift caused by a buried MG in that drift. Couple of us pulled the driver out just before the Truck hit that drift. The fellow driving the the Truck commented that I drive this road every day,yah right.

Here’s to pennDOT.

Wish that the company took the storm risk and not its employees, but that’s a fight for another day.

Enjoy the snow!
