    If someday you think about changing companies you might check this thread below:

    FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

    I don't drive for them but I think they might have what you are looking for.

    The load I was on Got rescheduled for Pick up on sunday
    So they took the load off me. Thought they set my of pta for tomorrow morning but checked and it was this morning. So sent a .message over the Qualcomm and then called.
    On hold for 2 hrs and just hung up. And never replied to message about changing.
    While waiting got 3 preplans that all picked up today and required to drive override. Not happening since I been up all day.
    Refused all of them saying on a reset.
    No response. Oh well. Guess I just ignore all messages till 0900 tomorrow morning when my reset is done.
    Had talked to my old dm and said they would send me plans to drive override and he knows I don't do those. Well... at least 95 percent of the time I don't lol
    Anyways be safe on this crazy traffic day

    Parowan, UT at the TA.

    I'm headed to Chino, CA for a Monday morning delivery at 1000.
    Lots of time on this load and I'm only doing about 360 miles per day on it. I'll stop in Barstow tomorrow as that is the last decent place to stop.

    Mac 30 gave me two choices, this load or one delivering on Sunday in Billings, MT.
    This one had 300 more miles and delivered Monday, so I may not have to wait as long for another load during a holiday weekend.
    And it's been really strange that truck traffic has been so scarce the past few days.

    Are all swift trucks sensitive to critical events?
    I started back on Aug 17 and I got an average of 1 every other day.
    Have to call every time now and it's a waste since I am not sure what's setting it off.
    I know I went over a bridge that was pretty rough and I know that set one of those off

    Lathrop terminal. No luck in getting this load recalled. Guy at window showed me the bubble map and it was all red.
    Be went and asked the plan few if they had anything and said no.
    So walked over to target to get some clothes that I needed to replace. The clothes i wore when I helped my friend clean his pools were ruined.

    So I will do some laundry and then get closer to sanger tomorrow so I don't hit the bad holiday traffic.

    I have had 2 or 3 since I started at Swift. That was nearly 8 years ago.

    Maybe it is an overly sensitive sensor in your truck, or maybe it is your driving style.
