    Bison trucks and drivers have to be some of the most non courteous out there. As is the company. None of them will give an inch on the road. Governed and loaded light, and we all know most passing lanes in 17 between ssm and tbay are on hills. The company uses places like the coffee shop in white river and the Husky in ssm as drop/switch yards. Taking valuable parking spots from other drivers. Their drivers plug up fuel lanes, wash their trucks with window squeegees, and dump there washer fluid piss jugs out at the fuel lanes.

    Alas……this is not a bison only issue. Manitoulin is beginning to become the same. From what I know and see, they’ve moved all team operations to Winnipeg, and majority of those drivers are new Canadians now as well. Just as ignorant and non courteous as bison.

    Had a few Bison/Britton drivers doing 62 in the middle lane on the Ohio Turnpike, oblivious to the world happening around them, or the massive backup behind them.

    I was in 3 different trucks. First one because battery got so low on home time that truck couldn't start back up. Don't really remember the others. Dispatcher did once tell me over the phone that if it runs just drive it. That guy who I still remember the name of was just horrible. My 3rd co driver actually was writing a list of stuff the guy did to report them to some state or something. Oh I did mean 3 co drivers. First one just chosen to switch. 2nd one was temporary because guy lived in Cali. Which even though he left the truck to go home. Dispatch still had him connected to the truck. 3rd guy we just parted in Pennsylvania. Also when I was sent a list of possible co drivers. All I got was names and numbers. Didn't even list state they lived in. I think it was in the last talk with my dispatcher that based on what he said. He partly blamed me for a truck going into a shop. It probably was the truck that after I drove over some railroad tracks that I got engine light and etc to come on. Also with that last talk he sounded pissed that I wasn't going to drive. My current roommate went to the same CDL training at crst that I did. Some how they survived 13 months there. Even was mostly solo.

    I wonder if the Bison management team will look into some of the extremely questionable social media posts made by the Hartt management team, especially the VP of Sales. I wonder how many customers would actually do business with this company if they read some of the posts.

    Hard to believe you when you created a account and that's the only thing you have posted. Not saying your lying but sounds suspicious. My guess is that you was fired so need to post things like that

    Maybe you should ask him if he’ll share his social media posts with you.
