Found a Potential Driving Opportunity

I had a brief run on Werner's Dollar General account for about 4 months. In that time I had three "incidents", a torn down cable (that I couldn't see, was illegally under 14 feet, and had no signage to indicate its presence), a torn off ferring (due to a bad repair job), and the trailer rubbed a sign on one run. I own last one as that was due to poor judgement but the other two are currently under dispute.

Unfortunately for me, even though two are under dispute, they aren't taken off a DAC report or a DriverIQ Report while the dispute is ongoing. Finding work is difficult because insurers see my MVR (which has two accidents, one I actually was involved with, and a second I was never involved with but still ended up on my MVR due to local PD ####ery, both prior to my holding a Class A CDL, over 1 year prior actually, and who's never had an accident in their personal vehicle in their life?).

So as far as insurers see, they see a guy with 2 accidents and 3 non-DOT reportable "preventable" "accidents/incidents". Most won't hire or pass me up because insurance costs are too high.

I had some bad luck running with Werner, and while I own my mistakes, I also see Werner is essentially trying to run me out of the industry and I'm just trying to do so legally and safely.

 

Yeah, the guy I spoke to did say that he had a truck in the shop and that they were a small outfit.

 

Well so long as I do my job the right way, then I probably won't have to worry about getting pulled into the scales, right?

 

Are you still in touch with Mr. Tran? If so would you be willing to ask him for some more details about his experience with this company on my behalf? I'd appreciate as much information as I can get, because I'm stuck between waiting on a local smaller time gigs to get back to me on whether or not they'll hire me, or let these guys take me on.

 

Weren't they trying to shutdown Glass Door for a little bit for being exactly a platform that allowed workers to do that?
