    I beg to differ. If a driver runs illegal because their job is threatened they're weak, not forced.

    For starters drivers growing a pair and saying, "no" or to put these companies out of business by refusing to work for them.

    Maybe the word "forced" might be translated "harassed" and if any driver who has worked under these conditions, any can tell you that the meaning is the same. Oh, maybe you refuse and at that moment nothing happens, but don't think for a moment that the axe is not being sharpened. Companies like this one will destroy you, just keep on "refusing" and see. Best solution is to just get away without causing too much of a ruckus. The fight or whistleblowing just isn't worth the trouble. I know!
