I don't want to start an argument here, but... more screening of new drivers

Yep, he said NEW DWIVER, Like still in diapers.

 

I guess thats why some companies insist on taking new drivers out for a few months of training that way the trainer can truly access the true driving ability of a new driver although having said that becoming a good driver can take years, it could of been a genuine mistake but i do sympathize with you i'd hate to be side swiped or run off the road .

 

Wrong!!! Wrong!!! Wrong!!! NO LUCK!!! Earned 37 years, NO ACCIDENTS. And not by LUCK. You have a long, long, way too go. See if you can do it, with luck.

 

Yesterday on I-39 I saw a DA stop at the last possible spot on the exit ramp and make a hard right turn to exit.... between two hwy dept. trucks (doing road maintenance) and directly in front of an exiting 4 wheeler... stupid people should stay home.

 

I see more than just that on a quarter of an hour basis. Anyone can do it. Some of us get caught off guard and react before we think. Sure, it's stupid, but we all have our days, right?

 

Uh.... no. Not that bad of a day... the driver put several people at high risk with a stupid move like that. he should have gone on to the exit exit 60 seconds up the road...

 

Hey Tracy like we've all said we feel your pain and anger however we all make mistakes or errors just remember when you point the finger at someone theres always 3 pointing back.

 

Sure we all make mistakes but there's a limit on how bad they are. That's when skill and a little common sense comes in. You learn from mistakes and we all just hope drivers are not learning from deadly mistakes. If any driver is in that postion it's time to look for another type of work.

 

if all drivers quit because of there mistakes believe me there'd be no drivers left on the road. Well maybe 1 that feller there was a write up about what was it 3 million accident free miles wow thats a driver i take my hat off to.
