    First off..those are bs…then you post crap from 6 yrs ago.. if this company’s safety rating is so bad. Why do I get bypassed on drivewyze roughly 95% of the time? I think anybody with smarts can figure that one out… and we all know that lawyer is lying. How can you tell when that lawyer is lying? Easy their lips are moving… And there’s other people here that are just like that…

    Crap from 6 years ago, yah, figured you wouldn’t want to face that one. One of the most tragic trucking accidents and the scum-bag are still in business.
    Currently 17 deaths in the last 24 and a high rate of trucks being put oos. Junk trucks or too many lazy flip flop no speak illegals working there.

    Sucks when the tables get turned and that’s why I always will tell it factually :)
