    Like "Swift trucks aren't." Sure Will Impede the Flow of Traffic. Did you hear about the Swift truck that had an accident in Lancaster, PA? Got rear-ended by an Amish buggy... :biggrin_25525:

    Everyone, as strange and unbelievable as this story sounds, I can assure you it is not fiction nor is it just another "trucker story". It's one of the strangest things I've ever encountered but, at the same time not surprising given the cast of characters involved. Happy New Year everyone!!

    So what is wrong with bashing Swift? I thought that was the national pastime for all truckers, other than swifties, of course. . .:biggrin_255:

    Now THAT is funny!:biggrin_25520:

    No, I bash Swift because they are the stupides people on the face of the planet. You can't turn around with out seeing a Swift driver being stupid. A month ago in Wi. I saw a Swift trainer truck going down the road his trailer wheels just smoken. He had forgot to tell his student to put the air to the trailer. If you look up stupid in the dictionary ti says "see swift". :biggrin_25526:

    Not all swift drivers are bad
    Being they are a huge company, they have many good drivers
    Some even post here
    Please keep your bash down to a low roar and against certain events or issues, not against everybody who drives for Swift !!!

    AGREED!

    A few bad drivers in one company can make every driver look bad.

    But it doesn't mean a few bad apples have spoiled the whole bushel.

    We even have one of Swift's terminal managers here, who loves to debate anyone who bashes Swift incessantly for no good reason.
