Oh, forgot about this one. Was delivering to a popular Irish restaurant and bar yesterday, they have a lower level spot called "The Whiskey Cellar" that looks like something from Cheers....

Good luck man!
I wrote up a detailed inspection report on a bridge that got struck by an oversized load yesterday.
A pilot car would have been cheap insurance, but some people don't think very far ahead.
I haven't seen the accident report yet, only the aftermath at the bridge. Whatever hit it was gone by the time I got there. But based on the way it was hit and the damage done, I would guess a load, probably an excavator, got loose and made it self taller at an inconvenient time and place. This type of bridge hit happens fairly frequently. The inspection in the field was all overtime for me, and it happened on a Thursday evening instead of a Friday. So I had that going for me.
Went and took my CDL test yesterday and nailed it! A solid month of prep, plus years of driving non CDL trucks really had me ready, and it was cold here so the examiner didn't wanna be outside any longer than he had to be either!
My dad held a CDL with hazmat for over 4 decades, and he used to tell me not to get one since OTR trucking sucked! The last several years he changed his tune, just wish he was here still to I could've celebrated with him, but I know he's smiling down with pride!
