    About a year ago I saw a white Cascadia with a diamond decal and a Swift logo in the middle of it, on the side of the sleeper birth. It also had "Diamond Driver" or something to that extent written above it. I assume this particular status is given to drivers either for their time of employment, safety rating or a combination of the two or more.

    Can someone confirm this? I've asked the question to a few other drivers but no one seemed to know. Reason I ask is because I'm starting to see more and more Swift intermodal trailers running the 407 through Toronto and the thought popped into my mind at work today.

    yeah I dont remember the bonus amounts but its a few extra cpm
    I dont get ranking since im dedicated but I would be borderline platinum right now with 100% on time and hovering 100k miles for the year.
    But no bonus's for me :(

    Diamond drivers are 6 cents per mile bonus rather than 3 cents for platinum drivers. 108k per year requirement. I'm with you Moose....paid 140k plus miles a year, drive 150k plus miles, with no performance bonus due to being dedicated. Something about this system really stinks.

    Does that mean I'll be platinum after 90 days with no service failures or accidents?

    No, still need over 100k miles, not just 90 days worked.
