Well.....
went in today to get my load and truck...
2 hour wait since the company immediately put 25 trucks oos.....
we've been telling management for months of the problems with the trucks.....and now since one of our drivers killed a nj state trooper the DOT Is all over us like a fat kid on a cupcake.
im embarrassed to work for this company. I really am. I don't want this to turn this into a bit$&fest but jb hunt management has failed MISERABLY.
AGAIN.

I pulled a couple of their trailers and they are poorly maintained pieces of kr@p.
If ever there was a company that deserves to be put out of it's misery, it the cheerful mob at JB ####. -
Ebola Guy Thanks this.

I do feel bad for the family of the state trooper who died and I'm embarrased that it was a JB Hunt driver that killed him. You can't blame DOT for being on that DCS heavily for that. -
But Bill Graves from the ATA said JB Hunt is one of the shining examples of safety in the trucking industry.
Joetro Thanks this. -
JB Hunts has one of the top safety ratings.... This definitely dampers that a little bit. It sucks to see a loss of life and Being that I work for JB It hits me a bit. But I have never had any issues with the company or equipment, When I did have issues wit equipment I stayed on them and got it fixed or another truck. But every account and area are different.... As far as the trucks Getting violations are they writing these trucks up, I have seen some drivers that never do. If the shops don't know they cant fix sometimes.

JB's safety ratings suck, but when you have thousands of trucks, you can hide all the crap.
Joetro Thanks this. -
I will stand by what I said, their safety rating is amongst the tops. you can imagine all you want.
