Hey, I'm honest!

[gridlore]

All the paperwork for our trucks (registration, insurance, motor carrier permit) is kept in a plastic folder along with the crash kit, gas card, and a sign-out sheet. We're supposed to take it with us. This morning, I forgot. Fast forward several hours.

Nextel: Bleeble!
Me: Go ahead.
Adam: Doug, can I get the policy number off your insurance card?
Me: Sorry Adam, I forgot to grab the folder this morning. I'm an idiot.
Adam: Why?
Me: Because I'm an idiot.
Adam: So what do I tell my boss if you get pulled over or get in an accident?
Me: You know, I can keep calling myself an idiot for as long as you'd like.
Adam: Good answer.

My only excuse is I was distracted by entering Eddie's cell phone number into mine.

Later, back at the warehouse I clarified things: at 0600, I was an an under-caffeinated idiot.

You are required to produce the documents on demand. Registration and proof of insurance documents have to be in the vehicle (along with the operator's driver's license.)

Yeah, that different.

They can demand them if they have 'reasonable cause' here. But you normally get 7 days to produce them.
