    Well, if you don't tear up stuff then you don't have to worry about anything...I talked to a guy who deducted $30 from his settlement to cover IFTA because he got fuel in Oregon

    A company shady enough to charge for damage, is the same company shady enough to make crap up that never happened. Or to charge for maintenance.

    And I'm assuming we are talking company driver, as of course, the L/O - O/O is responsible for his equipement
     
    TripleSix and Jazz1 Thank this.

    Never sign to agree to pay for anything. Not your truck, not your cargo. Companies have insurance and would no doubt be double dipping
    Is it any surprise these douchebag companies can’t find drivers. They are predators.

    The rate is $260/hr once I get into my lawyer mode. So let me know what you want to do. (That’s the discounted rate for TTR members before you try and Jew me down)
     
    Lepton1, Feedman and TripleSix Thank this.
