[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 461905, member: 5529"] I have no problem with someone saying the load is hot,we need you to bring it back right away. I was referencing the age old "its a hot load,the cutoff is in X minutes". The amount of minutes is usually less than what it`s going to take to drive there if the laws are followed. It was said to me as a rookie,is said to rookies even today. I was fortunate to have senior drivers pull me aside and fill me in on this habit of dispatch. I`ll still take the load but I make sure they know I`m not making any guarantee on the cutoff because I`m not going to speed. If they`re not happy with that they are more than welcome to find someone who will. I`ve never been talked with about speeding because I don`t. I haven`t heard of anyone having anything said outside an accident investigation. It`s funny though,when they post the sheets for each driver group it`s plainly visible what each tractors highest attained speed was for the previous day. I still haven't found out why some need to do 70+ in a state that the law is 55. [/QUOTE]
