    Oh, okay. That makes sense.

    I'd like to see drivers held accountable for the equipment they out gate. They pull containers out with flat tires, missing lights, expired FHWA, broken twist locks -- you name it. And the crazy thing about it is that a lot of company guys are the main culprits. I mean, they're being paid hourly. Wtf?! You couldn't keep me out of the Quick Fix if I were on the clock!

    Call dispatch and they'll give you a control number, but that doesn't help you with the police. So now you refuse to pull it and have to drive around to find something else. It's a huge waste of time and money. These clowns need to be held accountable!

    Where I'm at I got a 250.00 bonus for a clean level 2 and was told a clean level 1 is 500.00
    Good enough for me

    I've always liked that - but at same time, if your not getting inspected, your probably doing a really good job driving safe...

    Part of the Evans team - we get free lights/belt covers/vests and gift cards for all clean inspections. Don't remember the exact amount but it's not too bad. Besides that just a "don't crash today" from the dispatch in the morning.
