Delivering against flow of traffic?

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Okay, so what do you do? Park on the right side and cross the road, or flip around once you have come to the end of the street?

Depends upon whether your next stops are further down that same street or in the opposite direction.

Your a maroon.

He is not a maroon-----he is a troll looking to incite an argument.

He knows full well that parking on the wrong side of the road is a big "no no".

I did it alot for Resi's on dead side streets when I was a new runner gunner driver during peak trying to impress with numbers.

I also packed the cab with packages

Never. Again. By the book now.

Not the blanket that I would choose to reach for.

Do any of you know what the inspiration for the song "Three Dog Night" was?

Yes.

Yes.

Elaborate?

Elaborate?

Eskimo description of how many dogs they needed to snuggle with to keep warm.

Okay, thank you. So I guess the answer is no. Even in a quiet residential area with no traffic to speak of?

I am Fedex and I was never properly trained as to whether I should or shouldn't do this. Obviously if it is a busy road I am not going to do it, but if it is a dead residential area, I don't really see any problem.

I believe that is against the law. Pulling out into oncoming traffic in the wrong lane will get you a ticket plus you have a huge blind spot on the right side of your truck while trying to merge back into the lane(s) of traffic that you are crossing into.

Get a driver's education handbook and reread it before someone gets hurt.

"Properly trained" started when you got your drivers license.

I've seen UPS drivers pull into short driveways and park on the wrong side of the road plenty of times on my rural route. I've even taken pictures.
