Julie Harned hopes Mother’s Day 2008 turns out better for her than the 2007 holiday did.
Harned, an OOIDA member and co-owner of the DanTrans LLC trucking company of Sturgis, MI, was stuck with a $5,500 towing bill after a DanTrans driver hauling a load of Mother’s Day flowers hit a bridge in Chicago last May.

Harned said a truck shop and tow service unfairly overbilled them, so she pursued a civil lawsuit. The court ruled in her favor, but a year later, the shop still hasn’t repaid them.

“I’m struggling as it is,” Harned said, adding that the total cost for missed loads and overbilling was $18,000.
According to Harned, Kelly’s Truck Center towed a DanTrans truck and reefer on May 10, 2007, to the mechanic shop after the accident, offering to make repairs to the company reefer. Kelly’s workers locked the DanTrans truck behind a gate and wouldn’t allow the driver back into the cab until the bill was paid more than two weeks later, she said.
