    Good Lord, what a mess. Would you say FedEx has a little problem? Can you imagine being the safety mgr., come in, in the morning, "Well, how many trucks did we lose last night"? With a week to go, looks like little Jimmy won't be getting that laptop after all, and Aunt Gladys won't be getting her oranges. What amazes me, is how can a company, ANY company, continue to operate with all those crashes? Show's how big they are. Even though, this is just a blip in the amount of packages they haul, each of those packages is going to a person somewhere, or was supposed to.

    I had three of their wiggle wagons pass me today on I-85 and I-10. All three speeding, tailgating cars, trailers barely under control and none using turn signals during lane changes.

    Very unprofessional and very unimpressive.

    Last Friday night two different pairs passed me on forty in the gorge. That section at the nc/tn border where it's plainly marked trucks do not pass. And the speed limit is what? 45 or 50.

    Holy crap I hope Santa didn't decide to ship my Red Rider BB gun with them instead of delivering it late on Christmas day himself.

    Probably for the better anyways , I could put my eye out and than would lose all my depth perception and would have to go truck for FedEx:santa::santa:

    Finally, they surpass UPS for the most wrecks.
    Come on UPS, don't let them get away with this.

    Hell hath no fury than some FedEx doubles blowing your door off in the dead of winter. Anyone who has ever been up on the 80 in Wyoming this time of year can attest to how absolutely insane FedEx drivers are.

    They haul ### in the rain, snow, or sunshine. Hell, they make hauling ### look slow. Snowpack and ice? Doesn't phase the good ol FedEx driver. White out conditions? Better turn her up to 75 by God!

    I bet them boys look at a tornado and laugh... then grit their teeth and try to drive right on through.
