I watched a YouTube video yesterday from "Trucking with Louis". He recently started with Western Express after getting fired from Schneider. The video was basically about why you shouldn't work for WE.
One of the things he said was that drivers are responsible for paying for damages done in an accident. He said they deduct $500 a week from your check. Does anyone know if this is true?
The guy who made the video had 4 preventable accidents in 4 months with Schneider so he is pretty concerned about being on the hook for thousands of dollars of damage.
He also said drivers are responsible for paying for fuel used for going off route and logging Personal Conveyance.
