Truck drivers will have the opportunity to see one in person when the TripPak InCab Scanning is featured at the American Truck Show (ATA) this month and can be purchased right their at the booth for $145.00.

For several months, a handful of drivers for C.R. England Trucking Company have been testing this new scanning process and it has brought great reviews.  It’s easy to set up, use, and inexpensive.  After being tested and proven it is now ready for the whole company to use.

This is really great because drivers don’t have to stand in a line at a truck stop to use their scanner or fax machine.  They don’t have to look up truck stops that might have scanning capabilities for them to send in the paperwork.  They do get to stay in their cab and scan.  They also get the gratification of not having to print out paperwork to send back to the office, and helping the cause to become greener.

This is just another step in technology that is saving drivers time and money and making truck driving jobs a little easier.  At CR England Trucking Company, they care about their drivers.  Chalk one up for CR England making life easier for their drivers.

To get started, visit Flickr.com and click “Create an Account.” Once signed in, you can begin to upload all your photos (the Flicker FAQ section has great, detailed instructions on how to upload photos – click here to read it). Unlike other sharing websites, Flickr doesn’t use titles or folders; instead, short tags are given to organize photos. Most Flickr users create tags for photos that include names, locations, event descriptions or theme; for example: “Colorado,” “Mountains,” “Big Rig,” and “Truck Stop.”

Flickr is also more than just a photo website, it’s a social network as well. You can make friends (known as contacts on Flickr) and see all their latest photos when they’re uploaded. To make a new contact, click on their name, which will take you to their photo page. Then simply click on “Add Username,” select whether they are a friend or family member, and Flickr will send the person an invite.

Truck driving jobs often require time away from home and many truck drivers work alone, so Flickr provides an easy, useful way to share your favorite photos with friends and family while you’re away. To learn more about Flickr and how to use it, visit the their official website and click on “About Flickr.” There you can take a tour of Flickr, read the FAQ, and get the help you need to start sharing your photos while on the road!
