    I got this from a friend of mine tonight. The tarp is tight, the tail didn't just happen to fall down over the taillights. The driver wouldn't talk to my friend. He pulled out of Three Forks MT at 9:30 tonight and headed east like all was right in the world.

    People that are Incompetent just cant be helped... It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see there is a problem with the tail lights being blocked...

    Pretty good stuff there. I read a lot about that company on here, and that confirms everything. Their training really is top notch, and reflects the utmost attention to safety - true pride at work in the industry!

    He may as well have unplugged the pigtail.
     
    Mudguppy, Long FLD and 123456 Thank this.

    Sad part is he was probably proud of what a good job he did.

    I know it is perceived that Prime has a great training program...however from what I have witnessed there is a huge crack drivers are slipping through. Driving down the open road at 58.6532 mph is one thing they do well....its the other aspects of trucking they are lacking in.
     
    tsavory and rachi Thank this.

    He obviously knows what he did.

    All the training in the world is not going to change an idiot. The megas business plan is to employ idiots. As soon as one idiot drops they slide another one in its place.
