The real way to tell a safe company from a not so safe company is incidents per million miles. Seems to me Swift is doing pretty good in that department. So would y'all please lay off us a little?

Hey I dont intentionally pick on you guys.....as a matter of fact when my truck caught fire a tow truck driver pulled over at the same time a SWIFT driver pulled over going the OPPOSITE way to help me get the fire out. Every large car owner op blew by us and most of the other guys didnt even change lanes.....so since then I've tried to be a bit nicer to Swifties in general....unless they're doing something stupid

The reality that Werner has a much worse crash record would just be 100x more apparent if I had put the accidents per million miles traveled down. That data was on the same page as I pulled those.
I just did not feel like typing more because I had already proven the point.

In the EYES of the car owner You left your VEHICLE unattended
so therefore your fault.
I witnessed this MENTALITY last year and the car owner was bound and determined that was a LAW or RULE of the road.
She asked me to be a witness I said SURE , cop shows up she tells the cop what she thinks and how the other trucker needs to be charged for leaving his truck unattended in a TRUCKS only parking area then points to me as a witness.
I tell the cop I witnessed her SLAMMING into a PARKED truck as she was texting on her CELL PHONE.
