CRST is a good one to avoid.

For my bet it's Swift... the only company that I see regulary tearing a hood off another truck in a parkinglot and then actting like nothing happend! Scary!

Simple Answer Swift and US Express

I agree, the Decker drivers are courteous and professional.

I try to avoid all trucks! They are all roughly the same size and hurt equally the same if they hit you! I guess if you are trying to hit one, maybe find one with the best insurance policy or crapiest lawyer.

If you were stuck behind this driver for 20 minutes, (doubtful), then you are held up what, 5 minutes? Maybe 6 miles from where you would of been had you not been held up? Is it really worth the Blood Pressure spikes and road rage to get there that much faster? I really think that everyone that has to go and try and squeeze in front of someone, 3 cars ahead of where they could of gotten in without any problems are the ones that cause the traffic jams to begain with. If that 5 or 10 minutes is really going to make the difference in your day, then do yourself a favor and leave out in the morning 5 to 10 minutes earlier.Lurchgs Thanks this. -
So - we're in the middle lane doing the speed limit (or as close to it as we can), and you'd have us move over into the granny lane with all the amateurs trying to merge under our trailers...
NTSB will tell you - the fastest 15% and the slowest 15% are the ones who cause 95% of all traffic problems.
I may not be able to go faster, but you can certainly slow down.
Just in case you missed it, we have a job to do also, and we want to go home just as badly as you. So, in your all-fired hurry to get there 2 minutes ahead of me, you put dozens of people's lives at risk.
Which of us is the professional? -
