If you're a truck driver and you feel like you've had it up to here with inspections, ELDs, parking, and a whole list of other DOT stuff, then this song is for you. 

"Hey, DOT! Leave Drivers Alone"

- song and lyrics as performed on Auto Transport Intel "Tuesday Nights Live" 4-2-19

We don't need another inspection,
You don't need to see my logs.
No dark sarcasm at the scale house,
Truckers need to get back home.

Hey, DOT, Leave Drivers Alone.
All in all, we just need
Somewhere we can go park.

All in all, we just need
Somewhere we can go park.

We don't need old overhang laws,
I don't need your ELD.
No sole discretion wasting back hauls 
Truckers need to get down the road.

Hey, DOT, Leave Drivers Alone.
All in all, we just need
Let us get back to work.

All in all, we just need
Let us get back to work.

WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER INSPECTION.

How many DOT inspections does a truck driver need in one day? No joke, I get trucking company drivers telling me they've already been inspected, they already got their sticker, and now they're being inspected again for the second time in one day.

NO SOLE DISCRETION WASTING BACK HAULS.

Truck drivers tell me that DOT officers spend so much time inspecting their trucks, their BOLs, and their ELDs that now they no longer have time to get unloaded, reloaded, and get back home. Is that really how safety works?

ALL IN ALL, WE JUST NEED SOMEWHERE WE CAN GO PARK.

How many times have your heard or seen a truck driver talk about how he's out of hours on his ELD and can't find a parking spot at a truck stop. That's why the sides of the interstate are lined with parked trucks in the middle of the night. Is that safe?

WE DON'T NEED OLD OVERHANG LAWS.

Go ahead. Watch the recent Auto Transport Intel "Tuesday Nights Live" show where we have experts diagnose the car hauling overhang laws. It's ridiculous what auto transporters are subject to because of old FHWA overhang laws. Wow: https://youtu.be/ii3x3Mltoz0
