    What a great question at the perfect time. I need to get out and walk around this little town and get some fresh air. I'll be away from this site for a bit, but I want to read and respond to everyone...

    UPDATE: There's a gal who lives in Tacoma who is traveling (in her personal vehicle) to Denver after her dentist's appointment on Monday. She and I have been emailing each other since last night, figuring if we would be a good fit. Turns out, we have a lot in common, including issues with our SO's. I gave her this here url so she could get an understanding of who I am and why I'm here. I think I found a way home!!! ;)

    I went to the Navajo webpage to search for e-mail links to the Presidents and could not find them. Hopefully this thread and facebook page gets their attention. I sent them a message from me to their FB page. We should rally together and mail letters to Don Digby and his son asking if its right on what happened???

    I agree because the battle is not over.PJ still needs to get home.I would like to believe what goes around comes around but its not often something bad happens to companies.

    Here's the facebook link again: https://www.facebook.com/NavajoExpress

    Digby's secretary, Maureen is at x0713 (she takes his calls). The phone number can be found at Navajo's CSA overview page: http://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/SMS/Data/carrier.aspx?enc=wGtMqXqBzyQsJYCd2tsBjg== A message for Don Digby, Jr can be left at Maureen's extension, or so Dispatch told me. She doesn't identify herself but there is a voicemail there.

    I'd post the phone number but I think it's against TTR's rules. The CSA is worth looking at: Unsafe Driving 91.5%, HOS 29.1%, Vehicle Maintenance 62.3%. 68 speeding 6-10, 28 speeding 11-14, 16 speeding 15 or over, 14 speeding construction zone, 42 failures to obey traffic control device. 762 trucks.

    91.5% Unsafe Driving!!

    Shouldn't Navajo's shippers be reminded of that??

    It will be interesting to see what plays out Monday morning when they discover stuff on their FB page. I think I did enough with the message I sent them. Patti's done a terrific job with her postings. Would be nice to see others comment on it.

    Regardless of any of that. It is inhuman and immoral to leave a HUMAN ####### BEING on the side of the road. Fire Her? Sure. Slam her DAC, yep. Leave her on the side of the road 1500 miles from home? Unforgivable.
