Is that a philosophical question?
-
i dunno that, stuff, i never went to philosophy school, but if the safety guy does the hiring, but the safety guy is no longer working there, who hires the guy, that hires the guy?just g p Thanks this.

I will concede it's hard to get by safety, because they know what will fly, but ultimately it's insurance.justa_driver, just g p and buddyd157 Thank this.

Might try a carrier who is Self Insured? Theres still a few I think? Of course, it will depend upon the circumstances of the collisions? At one time, Arnold Transportation was self insured? Not sure now since US Express owns 50% of them?

Thanks for sharing but it was unnecessary, I was just trying to make a suggestion but back in the old days, a record like that wouldnt be held against the driver. Thats exactly what I meant about trucking is going backwards in a previous comment.just g p and Trucking in Tennessee Thank this.

Looks like the problem is the 4/18 accident that was your fault. It's just too soon I suppose. I could see insurance overlooking the 2 non at-fault accidents, but not the recent at-fault one.
Like others are saying, there's somewhere for everyone. Just keep throwing darts at that board. You'll land something, God willing.just g p Thanks this. -
It hasn't showed up yet,but after I return this trailer to the agent I'm sure Landstar will report it.
