All the ones talking about blaming Fed Ex are the same ones who would be doing the same thing if it was a Swifty that hit the bus.

I worked for a contractor (o/o) for fedex ground from 2001 to 2006.. This truck was a fedex freight truck ( completely different). These trucks are governed probably around 65mph.. I don't think speed was a factor in this even if he was driving 65mph. Fedex ground trucks are not owned by fedex, that's why they will go; however, when I was there, they had a policy that said if you received a speeding ticket for over 75mph, it was automatic termination. I can't speak for "Freight" but "Ground" has really gone down hill over the years... BTW, all you haters who constantly complain about getting your doors blown off by a fedex truck, has it ever occurred to you that maybe you are going TOO SLOW???? I don't see the problem with pulling doubles at 75mph, I did it for 5 years and never had an incident...you have to be smarter than the machine, most drivers are not.

I read something about a car that was wrecked that FedEx side swiped apparently trying to miss it and that is a possibility why he ended up across the median...I guess will find out eventually if ever...
FedEx has had a bad month...this is the 3rd major wreck in as many weeks involving injuries and/or fatality...ouch. -
