Driver, stops at night due to fatigue, threatened with termination and loss of pay

Most of the time those types of video's are set up to make some one look bad and they do. If he needs video evidence then he may have the guilty conscience of stretching or not telling the entire truth

 

I thought this one was done months ago.

 

Happened this morning picked a load on Hebron KY. Trouble staying awake. Stopped near corbin. Told dispatch taking a nap. They said ok. Don't drive unless u feel u can, and I was under hot load couldn't fail. Took my hour nap. Was on time.

 

Driving while exhausted is as bad as driving drunk. A few times I was driving a load and my head was dropping over and over. I was eating caffeine pills, air conditioner on full blast, even screaming at the top of my lungs to keep myself awake. You know you are about to kill someone when you hit the rumble strip on the right shoulder and it jolts you awake. I pulled over and slept on the side of the road. Curled up in a little ball on the floor of the passenger side (I don't have a sleeper lol). When you are this exhausted, even a 10 minute nap will save lives.

 

Just like herpes, it will continue to reappear for the life of TTR.

 

Easy fix. Find another job.

 

Read the other thread...it's only like 100 pages long. The timeline is all laid out in that thread and he should have been able to drive the measly 240 miles or whatever it was that he had to drive. He's a loser. Period. Last anyine heard of him he abandoned his truck and took a job out of trucking. Good riddance couldn't handle the job. Run hard indeed LOL.

 

It should've been, but it is now.
