@kelsier_84: Replying to @grogunofux Yeah certain industries have additional regulations, but it is not and has never been about taking care of the worker. I personally do my 30 min breaks while loading or unloading if I can, and so do alot of other drivers, which is completely legal. Honestly trucking isn't a great example for federal regulation on breaks in the workplace because our schedules vary SO MUCH and we generally work far more than the standard amount of time. Remember, 70 hours in 8 days, but you can WORK past that, so long as you take a break and recap hours before you DRIVE. I can't speak for other industries like pilots and such, but I imagine its likely similar. #work #trucking #break #labor #law

I have considered driving as a career but have no knowledge how to get into it, or if it's worth it. What applied to me is, I'm a grumpy, antisocial guy who likes the idea of just being left alone for the most part, and so driving seemed interesting to me. It seemed easy enough: go to point a, then b, maybe c, etc.

When I drove log truck, I could drive 12 hours. Because I was going home every night. Dead tired but going home.

I drove for 40 years plus. I, like most, feel all the rules are made to try to keep them in control of you. "The more laws you make, the more criminals you create." (Chinese saying)
90% plus of all accidents are caused by driver error, but THEY concentrate on equipment because it's easier to regulate.
It's revenue enhancement techniques created by government agencies.
Some people can drive 18 hrs more safely than others can drive 4. The government is known for generalizing EVERYTHING! 1 size does not fit all, but that's what the government does...
