The way I understand it happened the driver was fired, but not for this incident. Hopefully this driver learned an important lesson.
To the OP, USA Truck today is in much better shape than they were many years ago. There has been almost a 100% turnover of their company officers over the last few years, and the company is better off today for it. Good luck!

One Greyhound ride is enough for a lifetime. Never again.WesternPlains and truckdriver31 Thank this. -
First time I visited USA was xmas1988. After a week in Georgia ( flew down there from NYC to see if southern hospitality really existed) I took the greyhound back to NY because it seemed a good idea, plane ticket 60$ 2 hrs v 40$ bus 24hr trip. I've been a lot of places and lived a fairly unusual life but I still remember that experience with horror. It was a look into a different world ! Then 5 days in pre Guliani NY to really freak me out. That bus terminal in NY was like something out of he'll.

I remember a greydog ride from hell! I had just delivered a repo to a dealer and was headed home. I was forced to take the bus from Jackson Mississippi to Atlanta Georgia. The bus smelled and there were passengers committing acts of parentage in the back. When we stopped at the Montogomery station I had enough and rented a car. Right now outside of maybe Amtrak and riding First/Business Class on an airline there is no real way to use public transportation and avoid trash! << Not said lightly.
dunchues and Speed_Drums Thank this. -
Speaking of amtrak, they really cleaned up there act. I remember as a kid in the late 80's to early 90's it seems like an amtrak train would derail everytime it left a station.
I never rode on one because of the reputation they had back then. But the only derails I hear about these days ar NS or CSX freight trains.
