As long as they are listing all screw ups and not cherry picking I don’t see anything wrong with it.
It’s not being posted on the web,YouTube etc.
It has at least one driver thinking about it. Maybe that will be one less claim.snowlauncher Thanks this. -

Kim Jong Un of N Korea approve TMC tactic.
truckerdave1970, PE_T, nredfor88 and 5 others Thank this. -
on the one hand, "outting" a driver by truck number and name is not the best way to handle problems. blurred truck numbers and deleting drivers names are the best way to handle this
on the second hand, by doing this public "shamming" may indeed embarrass the driver to do better.
the down side to the "second hand way", is truck abandonment or other "get even schemes" towards the company, maybe even the office staff... on a more personal level.
not cool TMC, not cool at all.Gearjammin' Penguin, Swine hauler, x1Heavy and 2 others Thank this. -

I have gone the opposite direction in order to get to a scale in order to avoid running across a weigh station with an unkown weight. If a driver gets popped between the shipper and the closest certified scale, then the company should pay. All else is the driver's responsibility.
A point you seem to be overlooking is that this is an attempt to create a conversation about safety. Talking about the circumstances and decisions that led up to the incident and better ways to handle it are important. By using real world scenarios it takes the discussion from academic boogy man to reality. When you hear about a guy YOU know who screwed up you start thinking "if it can happen to them it can happen to me". When the shear volume of accidents is made plain to see, it forces a person to take stock.drvrtech77, classic_150, spsauerland and 1 other person Thank this.
