    About 3 weeks ago while on my way to work, the road was blocked due to a Swift truck that tried to back into our local Sears, he kinda made the ditch instead of the driveway. I was late to work that morning as I had to head over to route 5. I honestly did feel bad for the guy though!!:biggrin_2552::biggrin_25521:

    I've had my share of bad experiences with Swift drivers. I met one last week in OK that was a nice guy though. He had quite a few years behind him though.

    I am totally amazed at the drivers that have no clue where there trailer is going to be when they turn.

    That might have been his final exam. He is now a certified Swift driver.:biggrin_2559:

    My husband works for swift and he happens to be a very good driver. Just because alot of them have no business being on the road, doesn't mean they're all bad.
     
    Lost Dutchman, 1nonly and jedi_tev Thank this.
