Not by the sounds of things supposedly " they told him to move out of the seat and let his co rookie drive. "
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
Listen, if this driver was terminated because of a safety issue, he has solid ground to go after Western Express legally. I know just the lawyer that would probably love this case. Paul(Opie) Taylor he is with,
Truckers Justice Center 651-454-5800 . Now most probable, this driver will "tuck his tail between his legs" and try to find another job and Western Express knows this and this is the very reason that these mega carriers get away with this type of action.
From what I have observed, Western Express has the very worse drivers out on the road today and the drivers are probably a reflection on the whole company.TruckDuo and blairandgretchen Thank this. -
yep,im wondering if after the load was picked up they got the trk fixed.Probably not.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -

Any update on this?
-
Sounds as if they gave him a warning. Other driver took over.
I haven't scene "fired". Or the original poster ranting. -
Sorry guys. Big day yesterday.
He's sent me pics. Trying to get a buddy to upload.
FM CSA followed up on email complaint - I'm ringing them shortly with more detail.
WX told him to let/make co rookie drive. Hasn't been fired.
Will talk to him soon and update.
Its difficult trying to bat for others and keep my average up too! -
Here are the pictures of the truck:

From the pictures, I would take the position that the truck ain't going to be moved with me in it.
HotH2o, TruckDuo, peterbilt_2005 and 1 other person Thank this.
