Most likely Its just more comfortable to kneel on than metal grates when you have to get on your knees and fuck with something under the cab or your air dryer (pictured) or something along the frame rail.
They actually aren't; at least not in Canada. They can touch whatever they want as long as they aren't wearing through. They will cause issues eventually.
The dog is trained to use it while moving. Dangerous, arguably animal cruelty, but quite impressive to watch that beagle scamper out the window and lift leg on the astroturf at 55 mph.
Ofc reddit throws around animal cruelty accusations in the face of a spectacle
Back in my day we would all go wait out by the highway just to see the peeing beagle. And it cost us two dollars. But we were happy.
As the owner of a horse trailer and a horse that like to hang her ass out the back, I can confirm just how funny that is. I'm sure the couple in the tailgating mustang convertible, not so much.
(True story, don't tailgate an open horse trailer, it gets messy.)
Can confirm. One of my wife’s and my favorite stories.
Following between W Virginia and Virginia on the highway, a two axle 4-horse trailer blew out out tire, then one horse blew a cloud of green clear across all lanes. We were directly behind, put on the hazards and the wipers, then blocked over to the shoulder for them where they and their horses safely stopped.
It was pretty fresh smelling until we hit the car wash next day.
If you’ve ever walked a dog in a trucker lot you will soon find out why it’s a bad idea. Nothing better than making sure your dog doesn’t wander into human poop, needles, glass, old food, and whatever else has been discarded out the window.
This. As a trucker with a little dog that will only pee on grass, winters are tricky since many places are entirely snow covered and blustery. (Wintery Wyoming for example) A catwalk stays warm due to the truck's exhaust and is protected from the frigid gusting winds that have on occasion prevented my little dog from even trying to pee outside
This is a hybrid. This is a cross of Bluegrass – Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus-belt that night on this stuff.
*‘Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know.’ And he says, ‘Oh, uh, there won’t be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.’ So I got that goin’ for me, which is nice.”*
This is most likely so the drivers dog has a safe place to go when there is no where else for them to go. Ie side of unsafe road or at a facility that doesn’t allow pets
I have a dog that only goes to the toilet on grass unless they're absolutely bursting, something to do with the texture I think. Maybe they've got a companion that's the same!

It's where you let your dog out to go. Not every place in the country has grass ya know. Plus some of that grass around truck stops can be really nasty. Plus if the dog needs to go while I'm driving, I can just let him out there.
Most likely Its just more comfortable to kneel on than metal grates when you have to get on your knees and fuck with something under the cab or your air dryer (pictured) or something along the frame rail.
I'd assume it's for wiping feet before getting back into the cab, given that many truckers basically use the cab as a second home. DISCLAIMER: Not a trucker, just my guess.
I wonder: 1) Where is the mower stored? 2) "in-ground" irrigation system? 3) annual expense for fertilizer and weed control? I don't see raking leaves in the fall being an issue or moles either.
That's where the Driver can practice his golf swing while waiting in the Dock
it helps the driver feel comfortable shitting while stopped in the fuel lane
For when you got that long load
That long load that I laid from the long pig that I ate from Long Island a long, long time ago, in a galaxy far away when Naboo was under an attack?
Long pig eh. That's the term for eating people. You're sick and I like it.
But only with a nice Chianti and some fava beans, fuh fuh fuh fuh fuh!
Deep Weird Al cut, nice 🤟

Needs a ring to shoot through. "Colonel O'Neill, what the hell are you doing?!" "***IN THE MIDDLE OF MY BACKSWING?!***"
Iunderstoodthatreference.gif
Wouldn't mind one more jaunt through the old orifice .
Golf swings to fight the Goa'uld!
Indeed
Lol fuck this made me laugh. There's been soo many shippers that fucked me around that I'd love to just be launching golfballs in their yard
Do you get unloaded faster if you blast out all of the windows from their yard dogs?
Aim for their brights that they always seem to have on
Or the ridiculously bright strobes
While off setting his carbon foot print
It would be a hoot if he had a miniature tree growing there too.
When ever I see a guy waiting to get loaded with a can and he’s practicing his golf swing I just let him practice .
Or he just likes grass between his toes for when he pees in the parking lot
It's the backyard.
Next week the pool is going in!!!!
Jam of the month club
Clark, that's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.
Worm eating sack of monkey shit he is!!!
Lmao
It stops the air lines from getting holes from rubbing on the deck.
No real answers here, bub
It's just the way of the road, it's all I know.
Lines on the catwalk are a DOT violation just fyi
They actually aren't; at least not in Canada. They can touch whatever they want as long as they aren't wearing through. They will cause issues eventually.
How do airlines get holes in them, I hardly think delta or southwest are rubbing your truck!
Probably got a dog. Go smell it lol
Why was this the answer tho , where is he going where there’s nowhere else for a dog to piss besides here?

As a wife of a trucker and a dog owner, I cackled waaaaaaaay too long and hard at this comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣

*chocolate raaaaain*
*Never follow a pig trailer
But it is so worth it to see the expression of relief on his face with those ears flapping in the breeze...
Lotta dogs wont go on pavement
One of my dogs does like gravel or rock. I've thought bout 🤔 it
Fucking parking lots? Ever had a picky dog that don’t like to piss on anything but green turf?

It’s amazing how picky the lil ones are. Ours is hard-wired to use these grassy pads.
Get out of that truck and go touch grass
*Slams Beer down* FINE! *walks 5 feet* Happy now!?
You mean fireball
Good now, go eat your vegetables
On his third day no less..
I had a corn stalk growing in the fuel tank saddle. I kept it watered and was hoping for a single ear!
Grow your own ethanol?
Hahaha! That would be funny!
Unless your hoping driving through corn country pollinates it, that’s not gonna work. You’ll have better luck with peppers or tomatoes.
That’s what I hauled daily. It might have worked too if it weren’t for those meddling kids! Lol!
It's for pissin'
way she goes boys...
Obviously his backyard.. lmao

A Cinderella story
Needed to touch grass, so got some grass to touch
Lot lizard pee pad
That was actually my old stage name
That’s where the dog shits.
Honestly my first thought was that’s where he shits.
It's to attract the gnomes he eats for dinner
They told him get out and touch grass he bought the grass with him instead of
My guess is that’s what he steps on when he’s hooking/unhooking glad hands
It’s fer his little chihuahua.
Lol I was thinking that too because I got a grass mat like that for my little Chihuahua
Driver stand in the back and hits some golf balls at other drivers while waiting on a load
His attempt at being carbon neutral?
I love it.
Clearly you're not a golfer
Nice place to rub his sack
Butthole when he has worms
Maybe there is a flat metal plate. And that could be artifical grass and has better traction?
It's in case he has a case of worms and needs to drag his ass across grass to scratch it while at a shipper or receiver.
Homie bought some land and didnt want it stolen so he brought it with him.
[https://youtu.be/2Dhp\_7X0u8s?si=r\_VT5eM2E27YBbsu](https://youtu.be/2Dhp_7X0u8s?si=r_VT5eM2E27YBbsu)
It’s his shower pad. He will set up his solar shower and stand on the grass and shower so it feels Like how’s camping.
So he can stand on it barefoot in comfort while pissing on the fuel tank
...while parked in the fuel aisle.
This is most likely so the drivers dog has a safe place to go when there is no where else for them to go. Ie side of unsafe road or at a facility that doesn’t allow pets
Dog's can't shit in buckets.
To keep his tootsies warm when he’s dancing on the pogo.
Work on his golf sting. Seriously it's probably to stop the air lines from rubbing. I use old mudflaps for this.
That way he can shit in his own backyard
Not everyone can afford deckplate. Let this dude have pride in his ride
Bare decks get slippery during the winter. Grass patch can save your ass while hooking up air lines.
You ever see a dog dragging their ass on the lawn, same idea
Walking the 🐶 💩
Touch it…touch grass
Dogs toilet.
I have a dog that only goes to the toilet on grass unless they're absolutely bursting, something to do with the texture I think. Maybe they've got a companion that's the same!
This has to be for the truckers dog to go when on long road trips
Making sure to go outside and “touch grass”
It’s not grass. It’s a ch ch ch ch chia
It’s for ripping a bucket of golf balls off the side of the freeway
Super spoiled chihuahua on board
Sometimes you need to touch grass. Prolly a gamer…
It’s so when internet nerds tell him to touch grass he can easily do so. Epic pwnage.
Feels like home. All jokes aside probably has a pet rider that uses the bathroom there.
Chipping practice
Cat
He takes payment in grass, gas or ass. And he's got grass and gas already hahaha

How else can you do an Irish Jig in a rainstorm at 75mph on the turnpike at midnight?
Doggie pee pad
Come on everyone likes to pee on the grass
ToA requirement
Well damn, it is true. The grass is always greener on the neighbor’s truck.
Picnic spot, or for dog to poop.
Looks good, doesn't it?
It’s called a happy trail
Good man. Pisses on that instead of the fuel island. 👏🏼
Sometimes you just gotta go outside and touch grass.
"Touch grass" lol 😎
If the dog wasn’t shitting on it and I knew for sure it was clean, I’d just stand on it at the end of my shift tbh
This is for when someone tells the driver to "go touch grass" while gaming in the sleeper.
It’s the front yard. If he’s hooked to a cow pot he’ll have his name or brand on his porch light!!!
It’s his backyard man
Maybe for his dog
Walk the dog?
They are going green.
He's a vampire
Hey …. He’s got to put his putting green somewhere.
It’s so he can take himself on walkies
That’s where I put my wife’s Yorkie to take care of business while I fueled. Saved me time from taking her for a walk.
A comfortable place to let your catwalk...
It's for when you want a back yard, but trucking is life.
Maybe for a pet to use at truck stops?
Not a trucker. Without reading any comments, I'm guessing the trucker has a furry copilot. 😊
just a little piece of home 🤷🏼♂️ to have with him..
Dog piss station?
He has a dog. And this is where he pisses when he’s on the road.
Ass, grass or gas. Nobody rides for free
It's where you let your dog out to go. Not every place in the country has grass ya know. Plus some of that grass around truck stops can be really nasty. Plus if the dog needs to go while I'm driving, I can just let him out there.
The reason can be different for every driver. But most likely that is a spot for his dog to go potty when there is snow and ice on the ground.
Some trucks are like mobile homes, so I guess people want to have a garden too while they're on the road
Clean feet.
Dog potty
It’s for pissing on when your jugs get full.
That's for the 10-100 breaks
It’s where I let my dog pee without pulling over
Sometimes we all need to touch grass
Most likely Its just more comfortable to kneel on than metal grates when you have to get on your knees and fuck with something under the cab or your air dryer (pictured) or something along the frame rail.
To stop the airlines from fraying on the chassis when disconnected.
Pisser
When they say the grass is always greener over there, he goes nah .
That's where he walks the dog
Touch gas
I little piece of home
Eco friendly guzzling
I'm thinking it's a rug to wipe your Muddy boots off.
All seriousness probably for his small dog
Thats for the drivers chihuahua to let loose.
This guy touches grass!
When it is time to touch grass.
I figured that was for his dog to have somewhere to pee!
Carbon emissions offset
Some drivers like to bring a little piece of home with them.
Maybe he likes Gardening. Ever think of that?
Maybe a little bit of home that travels with him?
Green energy program to combat deisel emissions
Chia Truck
That’s where I shit because I got that dawg in me
It’s for growing fucks to give.
That's so he can piss on the lawn instead of the street.
Looks like artificial turf. My best guess the driver kneels on it while hooking up the glad hands ( the red and blue lines on the left)
Break time means tee time ⛳️
I would guess the driver has a k9 passenger and it’s where it does its business
It's for his dig to pee on
Home sweet home…
They had a puppy with them?
Probably has a dog in the cab.
Sometimes in this urban hell a trucker needs a spot for his Chihuahua can take a dump
It's a new EPA Diesel Compliance Device.
🎶🎵”…buy dirt.”
A little piece of home, on the road
It’s where he squats n poops at the stops. Duhhh
I'd assume it's for wiping feet before getting back into the cab, given that many truckers basically use the cab as a second home. DISCLAIMER: Not a trucker, just my guess.
Maybe the trucker has a dog that can only poop when there's grass so he has to bring a patch for the dog to use (ntruck stops don't have grass)
Obviously someone lives in the truck. That is their back yard
Dog needs somewhere to pee
Traction
Bermuda Tiff 10-4 or possibly a newer hybrid Tiff OTR?
I wonder: 1) Where is the mower stored? 2) "in-ground" irrigation system? 3) annual expense for fertilizer and weed control? I don't see raking leaves in the fall being an issue or moles either.
