You call that harassment??? I call that safety.... Many idiots out there drinking smoking taking drugs etc and lilling people maybe if was someone of you family was heart or killed you will think dofetent
I'm a veteran trucker of 19 yrs. I don't have an issue with the blitz. These trucks are dangerous and I never have nor never will get relaxed while driving them. We are supposed to be professional, right? We should be adhering to all of the things that she's talking about in the video anyway. Now if D.O.T. pulls you over and harasses you and makes up something to ticket you for, that's different. Stay professional and stay safe.
You are as stupid as she is she doesn’t know shit ! She said at least ten things wrong and that crap about I TALKED TO A DOT COP always means you are an idiot ! No one that actually knows about these things will never say anything that damn stupid
As a driver my tip would be do most of your traveling at night most scales are closed less traffic cooler temps better fuel mileage and tire wear easy to find a spot in the morning when your out of time for your 10 break ❤
Great information. I’m not a trucker, but I love that you are looking out for your trucking community. Government time to collect that revenue!! Stay safe out there to all truckers💚
Not a trucker but I enjoyed your video. In Texas there are lots of three lane roads with signs stating No Trucks in Left line. Many truckers ignore the signs and drive in the left lines blocking traffic. It wouldn't be so bad if the trucks were driving fast enough to get around slower vehicles fast, but some stay in the fast line several miles blocking traffic. Sometimes time when trucks clear the slower vehicle an impatient car driver will jump over in the center lane to pass the truck before the truck driver can safely move to the center lane. Great presentation, and I enjoyed the fast ride through Pennsylvania again. Happy Mother's Day to your Mother and Grandmother and enjoy your time with family. God bless you and keep you safe. ❤
If u dont have to be on the road, chill out for a couple of days or whole week. Make sure to get things fixed. Review rules for your loads. Drive safe!!!
I just wanted to clarify on one topic that the majority or driver's don't know what it is or don't know how to test as CDL school's don't teach it but it is in our knowledge test. The tractor protection valve, as she indicated, DOT will make sure it's not leaking, but how do you test it? They will chock your tire's, have you disengage both, truck and trailer brakes, have you step out, disconnect the supply glad hand (the red one) and it'll start releasing air. The trailer protection valve is supposed to pop (the red nob) at around 80psi however DOT is allowing a threshold of 20psi and up to 45psi. Once it pop's they will be checking to ensure no air is leaking through the gladhand, then they will have you apply your service brake while they listen, feel for air leaks from the gladhand. It's primary function is if, for some god od reason you forgot to double check the jaws on the 5th wheen and your driving along and the trailer detaches the tractor protection valve is supposed to engage so you don't lose all your air. Sorry for being so long. I just wanted to make sure driver's that didn't know or understand how to test it know. Truck on 🤙🏽
@JavierRamirezLive that's where DOT doesn't specify. I've done both, in my own personal time. And either way the protection valve should still engage under the same psi as it would with engine off. Great question btw 🤙🏽
I guess they taking names and writing tickets. This is another reason why I'm not driving trucks no more. Too many rules. So I stay my behind here in N.C.
It’s wild out there, I have seen a few trucks get pulled over. Not just that, a lot of truck accidents have been happening the past few weeks. I have seen a lot of trucks flipped over, especially on i90, two back to back accidents one trucker flipped, and just 3 miles ahead, a truck was parked on the shoulder with a 4 wheeler smashed into the back of the trailer, that SUV was completely destroyed and probably didn’t make it. Stay safe out there ya’ll!
Ok I have been in this game for 35 years. Over 4 million miles of accident free driving. It’s real simple… If you’re a true professional at any job you do, you have nothing to worry about. You can get a level one anytime of the year.
🎉🎉🎉Queen Jasmine 🎉🎉🎉 The trucking community is better for ladies like you and the other driver who shared the information. Be safe Slimepacker watching on Mother's Day 🙏🏾 you have a quiet week.
Thank you for this video? I came across it last night. I've been driving for over thirty years so a couple of things caught my ear. There is not a statue in the DOT regs that says you have to wear close toed shoes. You could drive barefoot and it would still be legal. That goes for four wheelers as well. Concerning load bars and straps in dry vans and reefer units, no straps or bars are required if loaded to the gills. I'm surprised her DOT friend didn't mention that they would also be focusing on illegal substances such as alcohol and illicit drugs. I've only had two inspections since starting driving. The first was in 1996 in NC. Even back then I ran with my headlights on and apparently one went out. This was a daytime stop mind you. She decided to do a full inspection. She didn't even bother to look at my logs because she knew she would be wasting her time. If only she knew! 😁 I tidied up that thing REAL quick. The only time I got off the truck was to change my headlight out, which she was shocked I had one with me. At the time I drove a Freightliner cabover condo. Back then you changed the entire headlight unit. Easy peasy. Because I had that on board I received no tickets and a clean bill. I was wearing flip flops btw. My second was last year in Georgia for just a level one. No biggie. I was wearing Tevas that time. The reason they gave for stopping me is because my company's score had gone down. The rumor mill said it was because the company that recently acquired us had diluted our score. I personally believe it was because the company was putting out drivers that didn't know how to properly pre AND post trip. I do not drive during Blitz week. Things get too personal out there with the inspectors and they are allowed to fudge the lines at their discretion. I can't be bothered with that BS. Once again, I'm loving the content and keep up the good work!!
30 plus yrs veteran and it’s this new gen of drivers who get behind the wheel and drive 80,000 lbs like they’re driving a car are the reason we have the blitz’s professionalism is nonexistent in this industry anymore
I've been driving 27 years. I got sick and tired of the new so-called drivers nowadays. I came home, and now i move drilling rigs in the oilfield. You actually have to work. Otr isn't much to brag about anymore
This week it’s the truck drivers. In a few weeks they will be going after the armed robberies and violent crimes such as shootings and homicides, and also…..oh wait, never mind. Real police work only involves going after truck drivers😀
Nicely presented video. I did get a laugh that you didn't stop for a minute until the blue truck got backed in fully as he was on the blindside. I always did when I used to drive. Let everyone be safe and have courtesy
Very Informative. Even though I always drive with shoes on, there is no state or federal law prohibiting cmv drivers for driving barefoot (or with slipper).
I heard about this from peoples who experienced this. Also i heard about this when i was in trucking school, they said it was a possibility this may happen to you when your a trucker on the road. Im not a trucker yet, but will be going back.
Michigan had one last week and two more weeks coming up this summer. Don’t know if it’s on governmental website though with the dates. Our company sends out texts and emails before they happen.
I fixing to get sick real quick for the first two days of that mess. Im already struggling and i aint got to money to contribute to the state of Georgia fund. Take them days off.
Pretty sure they allready doing this in ny, couple friends of mine got popped separately and the the officers went through the trucks with a fine tooth comb.
I think 3 days fiddling with the truck will be on my schedule. Nothing wrong with truck . I don’t have time to spend in an inspection. That time ought to be behind the wheel driving .
From what I’m hearing they are checking your safety valve on the tractor. It’s the valve that’s supposed to kick in on the tractor if the airlines disconnect
The harassment of truckers continues. Ridiculous
No it’s not. These drivers nowadays are terrible. You just don’t see what they be doing while going down the road.
You call that harassment??? I call that safety.... Many idiots out there drinking smoking taking drugs etc and lilling people maybe if was someone of you family was heart or killed you will think dofetent
Nahhh,, it’s their job.. That’s what they do..D.O.T. Department of Transportation..
I'm a veteran trucker of 19 yrs. I don't have an issue with the blitz. These trucks are dangerous and I never have nor never will get relaxed while driving them.

You are not a trucker you are a under trained mega carrier employee there is a big difference you are as ignorant as the bitch in the video
DOT ROAD PIRATE HOLIDAY WEEK. Keep from driving if you can. They are corrupt!!!
She did an excellent job, giving her fellow truckers the heads up. Jasmine, I'm glad you off but you handle your business 24/7.
You are as stupid as she is she doesn’t know shit ! She said at least ten things wrong and that crap about I TALKED TO A DOT COP always means you are an idiot ! No one that actually knows about these things will never say anything that damn stupid
As a driver my tip would be do most of your traveling at night most scales are closed less traffic cooler temps better fuel mileage and tire wear easy to find a spot in the morning when your out of time for your 10 break ❤
Just remember it’s about money 💰 under the guise of safety. If it ever gets to crazy…there will be a lot of empty store shelves.
Exactly what it's about.....the Money.
So strict on truckers but not the border, make it make sense
Yea a blitz 1 week out the year is very strict
1 week this month then two more one announced then one random it never ends
That's your buddy Uncle Joe Biden and Kumm A lot Harris
Punishing people that delivering goods to their stores but not punishing those who stealing from stores make it make sense as well.
Well said
I would take the whole week off!😂😂😂😂😂😂
All the driver's stay safe out there thanks for what you do
They call me the midnight cowboy for a reason, 🤪
It's definitely a money grab I'm staying home for two weeks
I saw this in NC just this week! I was trying to determine what was going on! Stay safe Jasmine! God is good!
Great information. I’m not a trucker, but I love that you are looking out for your trucking community. Government time to collect that revenue!! Stay safe out there to all truckers💚
Unloaded today and headed for the house. Sitting here now laying low till the storm passes 😂 I take off every yr. Damn the DOT Money blitz.
Trucking since 1978! Young Lady you have got it going on!!! EXCELLENT Video!
Thanks so much 💚💚
Everyone should take the week off 😂
And that backing smooth like butta yoursuch a great trucker and vlogger
I should've taken home time this week, just to avoid all this drama 😮
I just drive at night every time that have this inspection blitz
Facts
It's not to late meet me at the bar 😂😂😂
Im home best not to invite trouble into your life
@@hardpointz399 lol these truck stops very very light tonight lol.. it's open spots everywhere lol

I really liked this video I don’t watch the news but it was giving news report with some interesting n helpful information thank you for sharing..
Thank you for sharing… I passed this onto my son the trucker
Jasmine THOSE BOOTS💚! Had to zoom in. We see you💅🏽
DOT needs to worry about the border and leave us truckers alone. We’re trying to do a job to support America. We’re not hopping over the border.
The Department of Transportation is not Border Patrol lol
Dot is just doing there job I hope you realize all the boneheads that are out there.
Another reason why I quit after 14 years
If u dont have to be on the road, chill out for a couple of days or whole week. Make sure to get things fixed. Review rules for your loads. Drive safe!!!

Is this done with the engine running or off?
@JavierRamirezLive that's where DOT doesn't specify. I've done both, in my own personal time. And either way the protection valve should still engage under the same psi as it would with engine off. Great question btw 🤙🏽
One thing for sure drivers make sure your air lines ARE NOT laying on the catwalk you can be ticketed for that.. Be Safe Guys & Girls!!
I only have my CDLP but in my mind I got my CDL by watching your videos 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I’m be a over professional driver by time I get on the road
Appreciate it J... stay safe driver ❤❤❤. They heavy on i 70 also Denver to Kansas.
The road looks like you are in Amish country , food is good and fresh their. ❤️🦋❤️❤️

Be safe Slimepacker watching on Mother's Day 🙏🏾 you have a quiet week.
Good information
I’a not a truck driver yet but I need all the information I can can get.Thank you for sharing
Facts! Imma tanker driver and the DOT's been real active lately...🤨

Ahhh, 10 weeks until retirement, so glad to be rid of the bureaucratic bullshit
Save all your money in REAIS and retire in Brazil and have your money invested in a functional economy with a real future.
10 days,,I bet I see you out here next month..
Always get a DOT and help the inspector out! Nothing like breaking down on a rural road with no cell reception or nearest tow 200 miles away!
There is no legal requirement in the country for footwear. That said wearing flip flops is always a bad idea.
this is the time of the year be a very good time to take a time off for a vacation
This week it’s the truck drivers. In a few weeks they will be going after the armed robberies and violent crimes such as shootings and homicides, and also…..oh wait, never mind. Real police work only involves going after truck drivers😀
Just make sure you do your pre trip inspection stay compliant
Tanx for heads up.
All drivers stay safe and make sure you all have everything in order thanks for sharing Slimepack 392
Came here from seeing you on the road just now with your TH-cam tag on your windshield
Nicely presented video. I did get a laugh that you didn't stop for a minute until the blue truck got backed in fully as he was on the blindside. I always did when I used to drive. Let everyone be safe and have courtesy
Good info. It would help if she mentioned code numbers when citing law
Awesome video
Very Informative. Even though I always drive with shoes on, there is no state or federal law prohibiting cmv drivers for driving barefoot (or with slipper).
Good looking out driver❤ 🙏
Blitzweek is the week you take off don't go out here and cost you more money than you make still home
Vacation great this week
I Hated going through Va&WV while livin in NC
I heard about this from peoples who experienced this. Also i heard about this when i was in trucking school, they said it was a possibility this may happen to you when your a trucker on the road. Im not a trucker yet, but will be going back.
Seen a weight station/rest area in Connecticut with like 15 trucks pulled over with the hood open
I feel like all drivers should just refuse to driver. They basically thirsty for money and the shit is sad.
Very then they gonna say why we don't have any shipments they keep harassing these people when trying to do their job smh 🤦🏾♂️
Stay home, don't roam.
I LOVE her outfits. 😍
When other users steal your content and make videos that’s similar to double brokering.
She gave FULL CREDIT to the woman in the video. Fix yourself, p!mp
Michigan had one last week and two more weeks coming up this summer. Don’t know if it’s on governmental website though with the dates. Our company sends out texts and emails before they happen.
They hit me riding through Tennessee but I passed lucky prime a good company and keep us and equipment up to date
Have Mercy 💜💜💜👑👽
No Flippy Flops!
Don't forget to fill out that load tab on your qualcomm! I habitually forget to do that.
I fixing to get sick real quick for the first two days of that mess. Im already struggling and i aint got to money to contribute to the state of Georgia fund. Take them days off.
