    That's terrible!...
    I've been wondering all afternoon if it was a driver and if the victim was a terminal manager.
    Thoughts and prayers for his family...

    You and others previously mentioned "stealing payroll". I've actually looked at Knight and the even the Katy terminal to get that "pre-req 1 year" in... Would anyone be willing to go into more detail of what makes Knight apparently a bad place to work -- especially payroll skimming practices?

    On no! This is truly horrible! Mike was a fantastic individual and a true asset to everyone he came into contact with! Him, Debbie, and Kevin were truly wonderful people and the reason so many stayed at Knight as long as they did.

    Here's a story about Mike and his beautiful wife from a few years ago. I remember how proud he was of his wife. There's was a true love story. I haven't been this sad since my grandfather died years ago. I don't even know how to react.

    RIP Sir you will be missed by many.

    So payroll in Phoenix just forgets (*wink, wink) to pay "this" or "that" to Driver X?
    Sounds like you have to be a part-time accountant.

    Some newer trucks have the brake lights tied in with the jake brake so he might not have been riding the brakes.

    Why is the media calling Knight a "truck sales and leasing" company?
