    Knight is so boned... Present knight drivers stock up now on Ramon noodles and Bernie weenies.. Looks like thinks may get rough. They only giving your 3 batteries now, so let's say this cost em 100mill, looks like 2 batteries 3rd gen recaps, no a.c. No radios, and 58mph trks and let's say driver pay 25cpm will cover the loses. Knight won't pay for this, in the long run the Poor saps still working there will..

    I just read the link to the case. I am not sure if the driver stopped or not. If he stopped, he probably stopped to send a QC message and... was told what to do... lets see:
    1) He got tires replaced
    2) A lawyer
    3) Knight's backing somehow...
    Maybe there ARE some SCREEN SHOTS OF THE QC AVAILABLE... on Multhee's cellphone!!!!

    He ended up continuing on too So Cal where he ditched the truck at a Home Depot store and probably fled the country. Knight recovered the truck, power washed the human remains from the under carriage of the truck and promptly fired the Knight employee that cooperated with the investigation. They missed a spot apparently because they were able to recover evidence from the truck.

    Defiantly not a company I would work for...again.

    I read it. Found it quite gripping and am still awaiting the final results.

    Ah, I'm ######, because this guy has the inside scoop, you can just tell.

    edit: Also, "bernie weenies"? Where do I get them?
