    People who've driven an automatic all their life and never use the hand brake. ;-)

    I had a Prime driver back into me twice at the Pilot in Stanfield, OR just 2 weeks ago. The first impact hit my driver side mirror which woke me up. Then by the time I got my clolths on he hit my trailor ripping off one of the ratchet reels. I know you said Swift but a Prime driver is just a Swift driver that steped up to a lease operator in my book.

    When I was in a Swift truck you could see the fear in drivers eyes as you drove through the lot looking for a space lol

    Then they'd get on the CB to be wise and I'd respond "yep, it's my first day wish me luck"
    Quite a few guys I know at that company still play that game. Makes their terrible reputation easier to live with
