[QUOTE="anonymous6, post: 1074665"] people need to read the dot regulations. legally you could put yourself out of service. let's say you got sick after 8 or 10 hrs and did not feel well enough to drive. you call your hub and tell them you cannot continue because you feel unsafe to continue. you are covered by dot regs. same is true if you are too fatigued to continue. you may have felt great at the start of day but later on if you were too tired you could pull over and have them pick you up or better yet give them a call and heads up before it is too late, you are covered by dot regs. i have never used this provision in all my years mainly because I know my body. I have called in sick several times during each winter ( usually after 2-3 bad snow days ) and told them I needed more rest. they usually give me an argument but I don't give in. too many people depend on me to become a dead hero. ( or worse hurt or kill someone else ) [/QUOTE]
