My boss has asked me what I think is fair for a truck allowance. What should I ask for that is resonable, not too much not too little?

Truck Stop - Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n 1978
Es ist schon weit nach Mitternacht,
mein Tag ist längst vorbei,
mir fallen gleich die Augen zu,
verdammte Fahrerei.
Der NDR bringt Tanzmusik,
ich krieg nichts and’res rein,
das geht so durch bis 6 Uhr früh,
ich glaub’, ich schlaf gleich ein.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,
doch AFN ist weit.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,
doch AFN ist weit.
Schneesturm auf der Autobahn
und vor mir keine Spur,
ich seh’ die blauen Schilder kaum u
nd ahn’ die Fahrbahn nur.
Drum nehm ich mir mein Funkgerät, Kanal 410:
An alle, hier spricht Gunther G,
ich hab’ da ein Problem.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,
doch AFN ist weit.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,
doch AFN ist weit.
Ich halt am nächsten Rasthof an
und leg ‘ne Pause ein,
ich schlaf am Tisch, ein Kellner kommt
und fragt: Was soll’s denn sein?
Ich schau ihn an und weiß genau,
der Mann wird’s nicht versteh’n,
ich möchte weder Milchkaffee,
noch will ich schwarzen Tee.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,
doch AFN ist weit.
Ich möcht’ so gern Dave Dudley hör’n,
Hank Snow und Charly Pride,
‘nen richtig schönen Country-Song,

BURT
Heavy truck accidents have been associated with costly and fatal truck accidents, which is why the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) have developed new technologies to decrease these accidents. The technologies were showcased at the Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress and Exhibition.
Delphi, which was one the SAE’s 2008 exhibitors, revealed several new technologies to decrease truck accidents.
Truck Safety Technologies on the Horizon
There are an array of technologies on the horizon being developed by commercial truck manufacturers as well as technology producers working to better equip commercial truck drivers with the safety devices needed to better protect drivers, passengers and other vehicles on the road. Among the technologies being developed are the following, according to Delphi:
* The vehicle integrated safety system that offers lane departure warnings for forward, side and lane departures using radar and vision technologies.
* The headway alert system offers feedback to drivers on safe and unsafe distances for audio and visual alerts.
* A lane departure warning system that uses a camera to alert drivers when they have drifted out of their intended lane and the system uses algorithms to stop alerts when turn signals have been used.
* A drowsy driver alert system attempts to reduce vehicle accidents caused by sleepy drivers by using an imaging sensor and infrared illuminators to determine the number of eye closure rates that occur for an individual driver. The system uses a variety of alert tones to ensure a driver stays awake until they pull off of the road.
In addition to new-aged technology being developed to ease commercial truck driver?s worries of becoming involved in an accident, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is in its third year of its driver information sharing project known as the Enhanced CVISN. According to the FMCSA Technology Division, this system was created to “enhance the safety, security and productivity of commercial vehicle operations and to improve access to and quality of information about commercial drivers, carriers, vehicles, chassis, cargo, inspections, crashes, compliance reviews and citations for authorized and public and private sector users.”.
The project is also responsible for gathering and maintaining statistics on commercial truck carriers involved in accidents, receiving tickets as well as roadside assistance.
Legal Help For Commercial Truck Accident Victims
Commercial truck accidents are among the most dangerous vehicular accidents that can occur in the United States. Most commonly truck accidents involve a severe injury or bodily harm to those involved.
Those who have been involved in a heavy truck accident should consult an experienced legal attorney who can provide insightful details into developing a truck accident lawsuit.
