I know what you mean. A guy I worked with had that happen to him. He had sent a school bus out after doing a b pm inspection on it. About two hrs later the bus rolled by itself down a hill through a mall parking lot and into a wooded area with no one the bus. That brought the dot and everyone out. They determined that the driver forgot to set the parking brake.

What law is it in reference to?
What vehicle does it apply to?
I have heard that if you don't need a CDL license to drive that truck then you are not covered by that sign.
I have heard that if a commercial operator has a delivery anywhere in that town then any of those signs within that town don't apply.
What law is it in reference to?
- Local ordinance
- State statue
What vehicle does it apply to?
- Any thing that closely resembles the picture
- Only greater than 10,000 GVWR
- Only in commercial service (i.e. has a manifest), versus a Class C motor home

An Abienerkie fuel truck driver got pinched on main street today and I thought he was going to deck the cops..
He had a 12000 gallon tanker..
He was going to make a delivery near by...I hope he got let off

I am still above ground myself Jack. Just at work right now. I am hoping it is slower than it was last night.
