I backed into a guy at Russel truck stop on i40 in NM. No damage to his trailer or might but he was pissed that I didn't get out fast enough to apologize! But I did offer to call nmdot if he really wanted take it a step further. (He walked away and I laugh at him!)
Curious. Who has actually been backed in to by a swift driver?

These dudes are crazy, i currently work for them as a local driver out of the Jurupa Valley terminal in California. And in the 20 months I've been with them I've seen more accidents and bad driving that I've ever seen!! It's insane how these people have a license!!

I was in Katy Tx one time back in the early 90's chasing a fine female by the name of Sky. Talk about a solid friendship that was all too brief.
Had my front end torn off by a swift next to me pulling out turning right in the back row of that Katy 76. I might help you recall this place when you consider single family homes that line the parking lot edge around the place.
I was in that sleeper too. What a ride that was.
Probably the one time I absolutely felt like a victim unable to truck. And a phone call no one wants to make... Hey Boss, Swift ####ed us over today... -
Didn't happen to me but I was a witness...
Was backed into a spot on my 30min break in WV. The parking area had a decent grade. Saw a SWIFT driver pull forward into a spot right next to me, almost hitting me in the process. He quickly jumped out of the truck without setting brakes and starts walking toward the store. The truck started rolling backwards with him in persuit and crashed into the fuel islands. What a mess.
Have y'all heard what swift stands for? So what I'm ####ing trying? Lol
And btw when did they start doing flatbed? That's just a terrible idea. They can barely do Dryvan!!! -
I had a mirror get "adjusted" by one when I was with my last company. Luckily it was with trailer tails on, and my mirror folded. I got a $50 bonus to forget his truck number.....lol

This has got to be the first time I've heard of a truck without its breaks set roll into the fuel island from a parking spot. Usually It's a truck rolling from the fuel island into a parked truck. -
I got backed into while trying to sleep ofr a massive headache. Young guy, only driving for swift for a bit. He also was not a bad guy but if he hot out of his cab to look he would not have hit me. Ill never be good at backing and I avoid it when I can. I can blindside when I have to but I get out and lok alot.
