    That doesn't improve their safety rating any . Going back a year or so they have the worst ratings I have seen of any company .

    How's Falcon Transport's safety stat's? I'm looking to do flatbed work, not many companies will take a 21 yr old though, most are 23. Falcon offered to send me through they're training program.

    man, they are all going to be rough, get over it, hauling flatbed around the steel mills isn't something that always gets done "legally". falcon and pi and i and strimbu and yourga and EVERY other steel hauler looks the other way when you hand in your log book. Steel mills aren't exactly " in and out" places. you work and drive to get the job done. legally? sometimes. They are union for a reason, so that way the company can't CAN you when you refuse to run illegal, or when you get popped by the DOT for doing so.

    a lot are union, but that does not mean an easy job, or running legal, or ANYTHING else. there is GOOD money in flatbedding, but i doubt any of these companies that haul steel will have that great of safety stats. I run for Kennedy, and I won't even pretend that i run close to legal.

    Man , you don't have a clue . High OOS and driver SEA indicates a lot of drivers falsifying logs . Go ahead and go to work for them .
