What can I carry in my cab without getting jammed up by police? Any truckers here? Tasers seem really gay and some idiot recommended wasp spray but there’s gotta be something better. Is there a way to get a carry permit for all 50 states?

You got your own truck? Make a hidden stash spot for your blicky.
If you're company you're pretty much limited to tazers, mace and a Black person beater.
Schneider. I really can’t just stash a little 38 somewhere in a company truck?
It's your own ass if you get busted, but yeah do whatever you want.
Just figured out my state CCW covers 32 states so I think I’m gonna do it
>state CCW covers 32 states
That would be useful info to share, if someone doesn't mind?
Alabama
Blunderbuss or hand-bombard.
+Legal in all 50-states.
+Excellent stopping power.
+Blunderbusses can be loaded with just about anything
-Hard to find in stores
-Expensive
-Low capacity
-Slow reload
-Bombs can be hard to get and/or illegal in some places
-If you've loaded the hand bombard and lit the bomb to fire, but you wait too long it will explode in the barrel and kill/maim you
Hope you like Schneider, I have been at Werner almost a year. There are two things at work here, company policy and state laws where you go. A good tire thumper from loves or wherever is a good option. I can carry pretty much anything legally in Oklahoma where I live with no permit. If I have the same things on the road and get an inspection in say cook county Illinois I could be in serious trouble. I carry a Swiss army knife with a locking blade and a Spyderco roadie for more homosexual areas. I have not had any trouble to date. Trip plan well and don't stay in sketchy areas. I have been to like two truck stops I have felt the need to lock my doors and get my second tire thumper handy Incase some meth head wants to get froggy. good luck in your new career. Stop earlier than you think you need to don't stop in big cities if you can help it. Stay humble you suck at backing.
Thank you friend this was helpful. And the new career will beat the shit out of my $13/hr wagie retail job
If you don't mind being gone a lot you should be good. I think marten will hire you after 3 months solo and you can make better money.
I will write that down. Thank you truckanon
NTA but your goal should be to keep your head on straight and be motivated. If dispatch is slow to get you a run give them a poke. They’ll leave you sitting in a lot making no money for hours. Plan your route well and leave early in the morning so you don’t have to struggle to find parking in the evening. New England and the west coast suck and hate you. After a few months opportunities to work for better places will open up.
Thank you bro. I will soak up all advice I get ITT

I drove until last November. I just carried a p64 in a small bag that I kept between the seat and the shifter. Frick unconstitutional laws, if need be I would have just chucked it out the window
>What can I carry in my cab without getting jammed up by police?
NO not unless your an Owner Operator and thats only in jurisdictions you have permission(like a permit) or its legal and if you are OTR you are probably gunna be illegally carrying regularly and all it takes is some Black person a weight station to frick you.
>Tasers seem really gay and some idiot recommended wasp spray but there’s gotta be something better. Is there a way to get a carry permit for all 50 states?
No I drive local fuel tankers and even I don't risk it. I mean you do you if you wanna risk it I know a few guys who drive fleet trucks who do but I would never risk it.
pepper spray works fine stop being a baby
pepper spray works fine to stop a baby

Werner, God tier,~~*schneider*~~ plebe tier

Wasp spray is actual trash
Pepper spraying babies works fine
A short, 3-4ft spear should work. Velcro it to the ceiling
horse dildo on a sawzall
aint nobody gonna frick with someone holding that floppyboi
Not a trucker so I don’t know anything about this.
Why can’t you carry a gun? Are there specific rules that do not allow truckers to carry? This is really odd to me because as long as I stay in CCW friendly states it’s almost assured that my states permit is accepted. I have never worried about carrying on road-trips and just plan routes accordingly
Company doesn't want drivers carrying weapons in their vehicles/property. If you don't like it, get your own truck, basically. Can't force the company to allow something on their property.
Huh? Would the police tell your company about it? Does a company employee or police officer strip search you every stop?
If it’s legal to carry, why the hell would your company even know?
How is this a problem?
>as long as I stay in CCW friendly states
There’s no way to guarantee that if your work for a national carrier.
