I have a few ???? About Dac reports help plz

Thanks bob... It suck that they try and railroad us as if we're always the bad guys... As much as I don't wont to I may have to give them the 2 weeks just to avoid the headache of trying to fight with hire right or who ever they are... Is there a way I can Have dot do an inspection without me getting the fine so at least the faults can be repaired for the mean time?

 

Critters you stated theres other ways to protect my self care to share how any advice is helpful

 

Well nobody likes a snitch,cause that's how you will be viewed by them, but yes you can report them for having maintenance and safety issue's.

 

it does not work that way when you dispute it the company is given a chance to change report if they choose than all is good if they don't all you can do is give a 100 word rebuttal

 

that company and fleet manager sound like a piece of work

what company?

 

when appling for jobs and question is asked why you quit say the company failed to maintain equipent

 

I as well as many other here are OOIDA member's this is the kinda stuff they live for,they protect us fight for us. It's all they do is for the drivers best interest.in today's time you really need all the help we can get when it comes to this kinda crap.

 

It's a shame that trying to do your job and being safe can cause so much un needed stress

 

If you tell them you quit while on the road they still have to dispatch you back to the terminal. Though a short notice it still is a notice. All you have to do is tell them you quit. Quitting without notice is dropping the truck off and sneaking out of the parking lot. I had WestSide Transport pull that crap on me. I was hired in as a long haul driver and they decided to go all short haul a few months later. After many 1500-1700 mile weeks I had a discussion with the senior dispatcher. He said if I didn't like it then quit. I said okay, route me back to the terminal which he done. I didn't know until a couple years later but he trashed my DAC with quit under load. I disputed it and won.

What I would do is write up the truck on a DVIR and check it's unsafe to operate. Then make you a copy of the report. They have no choice but to fix the truck or have the mechanic falsify the report as safe to drive. You got them then because they can't force or coerce you to drive an unsafe truck.
Then when they trash your DAC you dispute it and tell them about the unsafe truck and give them a copy of the report(s). Then with you having physical evidence and them just their word you will win.

 

It's funny you brought up OOIDA cause I'm actually thinks of joining them
