    I drive for Swift and have not received this message. If there is such a message, if they wanted to send it to the whole fleet they could, like they did with the speed cutback two weeks ago.

    I ran myself out of hours and am taking a restart today so I could join you guys.

    Now I don't work for Swift..and that excuse wouldn't float with me.

    I drove sitting on a donut cushion for 3 days. I would have gladly paid a Doctor LOL.

    I bet Swift isn't the only big company clamping down.

    Swift company drivers have forced dispatched if they refuse a load there would be some sort of service failure to the driver.

    Swift does not have any official word about the strike, so what is this "clamping down" you speak of?

    And no, we are not force dispatched, I turn done loads all the time with no consequences.



    Guys, if you get over your hatred for the company for one minute and actually talk to a driver you might just find out the truth.
