This is by far the worst trucking company my family and I have experienced. They treat their drivers worse than the concrete the trucks drive on. The driver's safety is the LAST thing on their mind. As long as THEIR loads and shipments are being made, they could NOT care less if the driver is alive POST shipment delivery. My father was involved in an equipment malfunction in which the breaks overheated which resulted in a complete fire of the full 53 foot semi and total loss (which was in NO WAY the driver's fault). TWT terminated his employment and is NOT willing to reimburse him for his personal belongings that were in the vehicle nor his emotional and mental distress. if you at all value your family member's well-being and health DO NOT allow them to engage in employment with this company..
DONT RUIN YOUR LIFE BY INVOLVING YOURSELF OR LOVDED ONE WITH THIS COMPANY

Posting in one thread is enough. You have posted in several threads about the same subject.
How did his brakes suddenly "overhead" and catch fire?mitmaks and Milkman719 Thank this. -
So his brakes were dragging and smoking, he didn't look in his mirrors for quite some time, he didn't have his CB on or care to bother to turn his head and wonder why drivers were honking at him, or he went down a mountain in too high a gear...
Renters or home owners insurance will cover the personal items in the truck, minus the deductible that he chose.
Nor did he do a pre trip.. If he knew the brakes were so bad he could have filled out a dvir and put the trailer out of service.
.
And what's the full name of this terrible company?? Is it Tidewater?mitmaks, Milkman719, spyder7723 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Brakes overheat two times in a matter of 24 hours? His brakes were just replaced by a shop. That route is his main route that he has constantly driven approximately 200 times prior to this incident. The one week that he has a loaner vehicle his brakes fault 2 times in 24 hours? Hmmmm.. Not too sure how the road signs or any of that could have helped the situation. NO there were no smoke or rubber burning either. Prior to this incident there was a minor brake fire the night before as well
