do ltl companies hire inexperienced drivers

Yeah, that's cool and that's what you have to do. I'm the same way on turns and ramps 8 years in - probably slower now than ever.

What do you mean by 8 consecutive roll-overs? I'm in the Philly region and we've had 4 total all year and only 2 were at fault at all the Philly region terminals. One was an obvious freight shift and the other was clipped by a car breaking the tie rod..

 

at one of the nightly meetings the TM said there were 8 consecutive rollover companywide. I'm thinking of moving south a bit as im the second guy on the extra board and the guy above has been there for 1.5yrs and i want to get out of NYC like yesterday too

 

I started out in LTL when I was fresh out of the army. in my opinoin it was a great place to start out in the industry.

 

Alright, I'll look into that to see what I can find out. BTW, I'm from NYC myself - Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

 

Nice I did P&D in that area and all of central brooklyn..cant say i miss it too much, though its worlds better than some parts of queens...

 

We used to run about 70, 68 on cruise.....Few months ago they turned us down to 68 pedal, 65 cruise.

When pulling doubles or triples I also take my curves and corners nice and slow and let the supertruckers fly by me. Always been that way, doesnt bother me a bit. 12 years in still no rollovers or accidents and hoping to keep it that way.

 

I'm trying to get with Old Dominion myself. But I can't find their application on their webpage.

When I worked for OD in Seattle they had a guy fresh out of driving school.

 

Just walk in and ask if they're looking for drivers. Don't even waste your time filling out the application until you've gotten that far.
