Fed ex, you're doing it wrong!

No that is a Fed-Ex truck in the wild trying to blend in with its environment. It's waiting for a UPS truck to drive by so it can pounce and have its evening meal. The cop is just the scavenger waiting to eat what the Fed-Ex truck leaves behind. This is the raw power of nature right here fellas.

 

Those raging flood waters on 15 washed him across the road

 

i see more crap on the east then i've ever seen on the west. specially the northern middle

 

You have seen something rare indeed, you know amazon is looking at putting drones to work,, well this is one of the first flying fex ex trucks but the hover drive failed.... oh well back to the drawing board

 

Nah actually a newbie fedwrex ground driver.....jus tryin to fit in...

 

I have by the grace of God, have never put one in the ditch, but I know that there are "those that have and those that will." I decided early in trucking, to try and never make light of someone who did. Whenever I find as issue with another's mistake, I usually get to repeat it myself and sometimes something worse.......

He may have blown a steer, had a tie rod end come loose, a rear axle come loose, (saw a guy that got killed from that happening, threw him off the road)....a friend of mine had a guy running from the cops, jump over a guard rail, dove in front of him and committed suicide. He jerked the truck left trying to avoid the guy, and could have lost control doing it....as it was they had to have the truck towed anyways just from the impact. A lot of things can go wrong out there, so be careful with disparaging accusations....

 

Ever talk with a Fed Ex driver? I had tried a couple of times to try to get an idea of what they make and duties are.

First thing that they brought up was that they are not drivers,.. they are contractors and boast about making twice the money as regular drivers. I thought it was just 1 arrogant driver, but 2 months later in a completely different state, the other driver had placed himself on a pedestal just like the last guy. Here I'm looking for info and he's talking to me like he's royalty.

If thats what you become driving for Fed Ex, then I have no interest. Maybe I met 2 bad apples back to back,.. but their road etiquette often leaves a bit to be desired. I'm on a load too. Show me the same respect you want to be treated.

10-4. Those guys are hack jobs. 75 mph trucks pulling trailer sets. What can possibly go wrong

 

Some may be contractors, but a think a lot of them are just drivers on a dedicated run for a contractor. Yes, I know they drive with little regard for speed limits and safety. I conclude that is one of the problems with running a dedicated, as it becomes a game to see how fast they can get it done.
