Stevens transport

Why would they "try to force you into making log violations"? This makes no sense. And can you perhaps define and elaborate on "rarely send you home" so others can have some better perspective.

And I would hope they'd keep a driver in "training" as long as it took until such time as said driver proved they had became proficient in all the various aspects of trucking. But if you've became quite proficient and your trainer feels this way too, and they won't cut you lose, then that might be a problem.

 

Ya I was curious about what kind of log violations?Are'nt Stevens on ELOGS?Perhaps op you're not familer with the hours of service and just thought they were trying to force you into log violations.

 

They do have nice equipment.You're going to find out thruout your carreer dispatch will want you to run up to almost your last minute of your available hrs which will more then likely cause you to be in violation which you then go to logs if it starts to get out of hand after telling your dispatcher how its going to be because you're the one driving and incontrol of your logs.Never let them intimidate you into doing anything you feel could be an unsafe act.

 

Is this driver in his own truck during any part of this Dec-Mar time period or is it all "with trainer(s)"?

 

Don't drive for a company that says they'll get you home every 6 weeks,most carriers say like every 14 days which is still no guarantee you'll be home then but at least he'll be home every month.
