Help With Comment Editing

Driver Friendly Message boards. The moderators of these boards have approved drivers posting draft comments for other drivers to help edit. They cannot provide any editing help themselves. BUT you never know who might stop by. Several well known trucking journalists and trucking magazine editors who have strong personal feelings on this topic but should not comment themselves as journalists have said that they will “if I have time” stop at these sites and edit/clean up drafts.

Pumpkindriver.com.     This is a driver managed (not company) message board for Schneider drivers. Post drafts in the DOT/FMCSA questions forum.

The Trucker

Send your Hours of Service comments to editor@thetrucker.com  and they will clean them up and post them with the FMCSA (assuming they don’t get a hundred bajillion that is). Drivers should include their name, address and a call-back number.  If you do e-mail The Trucker you should understand that they may publish your comments in The Trucker.
