    Thanks for the heads-up about Accelerated Freight Group in Theodore,AL ZZnitro. I have seen other posters warning about this place and I decided to check em' out at the D.O.T. SafeStat website and almost fell out of my chair at what I saw......Score of 100 (INSPECT), yes thats the top, and worst, score a carrier can get. What more needs to be said folks. Of course they will probably, and hopefully, be out of business real soon and that will one less junko company on the road.

    • Inspection Selection System (ISS-D) Recommendation
    (As of December 21, 2007)

    Carrier Name: ACCELERATED FREIGHT GROUP INC
    US DOT #: 888745 MC #: 387087
    ISS Inspection Value:100
    ISS Recommendation:INSPECT
    Basis for Recommendation:Safety


    RecommendationISS Inspection Value:
    Inspect (inspection warranted)75-100
    Optional (may be worth a look) 50-74
    Pass (no inspection required)1-49

    This is scary, not just for the drivers but all the rest of us on the road. I wonder why the D.O.T. can fine and shut down drivers at will but seem to do little with really bad carriers. Even a lot of carriers I believe to be awfully bad don't even rate 100%.........but give em' enough time and they might make it. It's like what I heard someone say once "theres no shortage of drivers, just a shortage of good trucking company's.

    Hey! look they have a 7 days on and 7 off program. I guess you can tear the highways up and menace as many as you can then go hide out and lay-low for a week. LOL!!! look they are even members of that fine ATA orginazation. I'm sure this place lends the ATA some much needed credability .
