you can always get put out of service at a scale,,log violation,,have a few small accidents in the swift yard,,etc, you get fired they can't make you pay,,,,don't worry about DAC unless you want to work for one of the slave big fleet companies again,

He still has to list all driving jobs he has had in the last 10 years per the FMCSA so even if he applies to companies that do not use DAC if the company he applies to contacts Swift (as they are likely to do being it would be the last job he held), Swift would just give then the same info they listed on DAC.
