CB Lingo 101: Got Your Ears On? 📻
✨ Today’s Term: Deadhead 🚛
Meaning: Driving with an empty trailer - no freight on board.
When a driver is “deadheading,” they’re usually on the way to pick up their next load or repositioning after a delivery.
CB Example: “I’m deadheading about 100 miles to my next pickup.”
Translation: I’m driving empty to my next load.
📻 Not every mile on the road is loaded. Sometimes you’ve got to run empty to keep things moving.
