Can I break CR England contract

Can just get another job, then work out a payment plan.

 

OP posted in another thread he was starting school at the end of November... that was quick disillusion.

 

That’s the best action to take for all parties involved. Even if a lawyer buys the debt they don’t want that hassle, and the op would have 7 years to figure something out.

 

There is still a 7-year statute of limitations on debt, but I know for a fact CR England will file a lawsuit in the matter of months for the amount owed. As for 6 months vs 12 for the England contract I'm not really sure. If it helps any the guy I was helping is not a US citizen so he may have had a different contract since they bought his plane ticket here and filed for him to get a work visa.

 

Cre probably have a lawyer on their payroll that does that. I thought for sure people have some laws protecting them from being arbitrarily sued without attempting to work something out. If that’s the case and they can straight up sue you then they probably well because the garnish is 25% of income and they’ll get what they are owed faster.

 

Usually they owe a LOT of money, and the outfits, CR England included, go hounding and suing those who dare to quit before the contract ends. Just the fact the outfits need to force new drivers to sign these contracts should make drivers think twice about signing those contracts. I know I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't pay a nickel for CDL training today, with conditions what they are and robots rumoured to be coming in in the near future. Part of the reason CDL training is so #### ridiculously expensive is to keep most people from getting right back out of trucking when they get into it and discover what it's really like. If you pay 5 grand for training or become a contract indentured servant, you won't be able to quit like somebody who didn't pay anything for training or isn't on the hook for a contract if he leaves. Costly contracts and expensive driving school tuition help force drivers to keep driving. They help eliminate turnover.

 

I've heard of guys who drive the Maxforce Internationals waiting for two weeks in hotels for their trucks to be repaired. Well, their regen systems on those trucks to be repaired. As the new regen systems age, get ready to wait wait and wait some more at the shops as they go down. I predict in 5 years the aging regen systems on rigs will keep trucks in shops for an hour out of every 3 they're on the road. Better be ready to tolerate waiting.

 

Doesn't answer my question.

 

It doesn't even come close to helping eliminate turnover.

 

There ya go. Another reason to choose some other profession. High turnover. For good reasons.
