Class 8 trucks that have a weight rating of more than 10.001 pounds are required to undergo inspection every year. These inspections are regulated and conducted by the Department of Transportation-DOT.

The aim of the DOT inspection is to make sure that the truck, all truck parts of the commercial motor vehicle are in the best working condition. The DOT requires inspection of the truck driver as well.

In general there are six levels of the DOT inspection.

Thereupon, the truck drivers who are performing pre-trip inspections on a regular basis and are using electronic logging devices are the ones that tend to do very well on DOT inspections.

Mainly it is so, because the electronic logging devices are making inspections safer, faster and more efficient, both for the truck driver and for the DOT inspector.

In addition, electronic logging devices are eliminating the form and manner violations- featuring missing dates, locations, total miles and the HOS violations.

Henceforth, truck drivers by following all the rules and regulations can drastically reduce the violations that they can potentially receive.

When it comes to equipment transportation, especially when bought from actions or other non-traditional vendor, there are several things one must consider.

But, people often overlook the obvious and focus on just a particular detail. For many this point of focus is not as important as one might think, in relation to the overall operation of equipment transportation.

After all you would think since there has some form of equipment transportation or other cargo shipping they could get it figured out by now. Just think how hard it is to find equipment transportation services and means to get your stuff home today, imagine what it was like 20 years ago.

When it comes to equipment transportation, things have changed since the days of negotiating at the rock quarry auction, then dragging the stone slabs across the desert to build pyramids. Or even the logistics of supporting Napoleon’s troops at Waterloo!

How about equipment transportation during the westward expansion of the United States? People would buy from second and auctions all the time, but often it wasn’t getting it transported across town. No, it was hundreds or even thousands of miles.

Well if you are running a mean machine in NASCAR  making those never ending left turns, this might be true. But if you’re driving an 80,000 pound big rig, or any class 8 truck, not so much! Slamming on the Jake Brakes won’t help you take that turn!

It’s one thing when you doing excessive acceleration just for the show, and it is other thing when you are out on the open road with other participants in the traffic.

Excessive acceleration isn’t going to help you get to where you’re going. You might be thinking that is a rather dumb statement. Well, on the service perhaps it is!

After all, when you’re watching some trucker movie and there are playing trucker music and songs about having a long way to go and a short time to get there, they are intending to use more than a little excessive acceleration!

Although the Jake brake is of a primer value to people that are operating in the trucking industry, more precisely-to truck drivers, still this brake is not designed to serve as a substitution for the service brakes.

However, we all need from time to time to sit comfortable in out gaming chair or simply our sofa and set our favorite game and relax for a bit. Today we are doing that on our computer or our Smartphone but gaming is not a new way that we found, in fact, it is a way that started thousands of years ago.

OK, maybe the way of gaming was different but the purpose was the same. Our ancestors made games with stones and branches and not far away when the Smartphones and mobile application were not part of our lives some of us loved to be out of the home walls playing with our friends in our backyards.

Like I said the materials of gaming were different but the purpose was the same which is making us happy at that moment. The games are the natural way of learning us to become better which is same later in the life. We want to improve ourselves so we will be able to achieve a higher level in our life.
