Curious. Who has actually been backed in to by a swift driver?

The accidents described above could easily be reduced by 50% across the industry if all entry level drivers were expected, like the old days to drive a cabover for the first 3 years of their career. Only then, after you have demonstrated your ability as an accident free driver, would you be allowed to "graduate" to a hood.
One unintended consequence of the idea of using conventionals as recruiting tools.
They used to hit stuff when they were in a cabover, but not as frequently.

 

I had a trailer get nailed by a Crete driver at the 83 diner north of York, PA. He was doing a blindside 90 with no lighting and shaved a little paint off the trailer. Pretty impressive.

 

was sitting at the T/A in puckerbush NV (Mills city) way out on the dirt cause I had a noisy reef when a swift hit the hole next to me quite fast. He then slid in to me and ripped my bumper to about a 90 degree angle and kept going, I was asleep when it happened and didn't get up fast enough to get his truck number. I was not real happy!

 

Had a Crete driver nail my trailer on the access road to the Pilot on I-84 in Sturbridge,Massachusetts a year ago. He turned too soon and the right side of his trailer caught the rear left corner of my trailer,scraping the paintwork off of his trailer in the process. This Pilot is notorious for being packed,as its the only one in Massachusetts so everyone was parking wherever they could. To mak matters worse somebody else's truck was disabled and they had to call a wrecker to assist,meaning no one could get into or out of the main parking area.

 

I don't see many Swifties trying to park in truck stops. When I do see them, they give it a few tries and then get frustrated and leave.

What's the difference between a Swift truck and a toilet?

A toilet can back up.

 

If I owned a Truck stop I'd put a big sign out front NO SWIFT TRUCKS!

 

I'm not sure what disturbs me more, the fact he didn't set his brakes, or the last sentence in this paragraph...
