Truck Abandonment

it will be on his DAC. it was probably added the intant they discovered the truck was abandoned.

 

if u have the balls to go ask for a job from an employer & pick up a truck & trailer from them; then have the balls to bring it back to then like they issued it to u. abandoning equipment only shows u being a coward. no matter how u claim that the employer treated u like crap , dirt, etc. bring them back their equipment. abandoning equipment will haunt u & prevent u from getting a job elsewhere

 

he will get blackballed as they call it in the industry and might could lose his new job.

 

jb hunt will be notified when then truck is spotted by the police and/or it will be tracked by them. If its a loaded trailer he is definitely screwed.

 

How do you know the situation? I've seen guys on here post that they dropped the truck in a company yard, and still got hit for truck abandonment because they were under a load. Or because it was a different yard than where the company wanted them to take it.

Real fair system DAC is. Companies can post what ever they want, whenever they want, and the only recourse a driver has is to get a lawyer and make the truth come out.

How do you know they didn't let him sit for days on end empty? The answer is you don't. You don't know any of it, but you #### sure have an opinion don't you...

 

it seems like you are putting your nose in where it doesnt belong.dont you have something in your own life to work on?

 

well the thing is you dont abandon equipment.if you leave it at a yard you can tell someone and put it in the OBC.

 

As far as I know JB will still hire you with truck abandonment on your record. I have a friend that has abandoned 3 trucks, 1 being a JB truck and 2 of them under a load. He went back to work for JB and still drives for them since he went back last year. He is doing quite well there running OTR for them this time.
