Being parked is better than being dead

Especially during the winter we drivers need to keep at least 4 days of water and as many days shelf stable food in our trucks, extra blankets, and alternate heating methods on board.

No one would ever care about a professional driver as long as deliveries are made

I was going from Cleveland OH to Binghamton NY on I90 and the snow was awful took me over an hour and twenty minutes to go 23 miles glad I made it home

Drivers need to be prepared for this I've been in this situation a couple of times. Make sure you keep extra food and water in the truck ice scrapers de-icing spray ice cleats couple pairs of gloves and I always keep my fuel tanks topped off so I don't run out of diesel when I'm parked for 2 or 3 days. I thought it was actually a little bit fun being snowed in like that.

I narrowly escaped this, I read the warnings and my clock reset just as it all started down heavy, Slow rolled from Buffalo on down to northern PA and knew I wasn't going to be stuck and that was a huge sigh of relief for me.

Welcome too winter driving as a Commerical Driver

As a rule check the forecast before you haul loads.

Truckers aren't getting paid enough to deliver loads in these conditions

I have been in this situation several times . I feel for those drivers stuck in the truck stop , but I’m sure it were be a lot worse if the stock on the road on this type a blizzard

No deliveries to NY!

I've cut New York out just like California. I understand closing roads in bad conditions but New York went too far with it. To make matters worse these idiot politicians are wanting to lower the standards to even get a CDL

I don't run that area anymore glad of it

It’s normal upstate. Just plan ahead and stock up food ,drink and warm clothing. Truck stuff too.

We seem like we are done going to NY

I'm sitting in pattaya thailand it's down to 81 degrees now!!!!!

Funny how I went there and through there without any issues during the armory’s part of the storm lol

Sadly those drivers sacrifice and drove. They won't get paid for the days they drive even though they are on company time. Truck life sucks

Lol. I started a dedicated route from Phoenix to L.A. and back two weeks ago.
