Thursday, August 2, 2018

Put all the lights on my load and my reflective "Oversize Load" banners for night traveling.  




Left Oak Grove, KY at about 1:45 CDT.  No problems with traffic through Nashville that early in the morning.  Got to Chattanooga and there was a wreck involving two semi trucks and 4 or 5 cars.  Fortunately it was on the other side.  Traffic on that side was at a stand still.  I-24 was totally shut down.  Our side was moving fine!!!  Got to the Tennessee / Georgia state line a bit early, which was just fine because we beat all the curfews.  I couldn't cross into Georgia until a half hour after sunrise.   When I was legally able to move again I left.  Didn't need my pilot escort car in Georgia so she left.  Atlanta was no fun.  Lots of bumper to bumper traffic.  The rain didn't help either.  Stopped for the night at a truck stop in Pulaski, Georgia.  I'll deliver tomorrow.
