    Picked up a trailer in Lake Wales. Not 1, not 2, not 3.....nope, not even 4, but 5 tires replaced on this trailer.

    This driver SHOULD NOT be allowed to continue their contract at JCT. That's my feelings on the matter.

    This definitely should be brought to the attention of management is that is 100% inexcusable to drop a trailer in that condition and I understand that yard jockeys can sometimes best tires up that looks like it's been like that for a while and I agree with you that driver should be gone

    I'm still am. At least for the estimated pay. I made my own to track mileage throughout the year and it averages out the miles per month and week and tracks totals miles for year and by quarter.

    I agree. Can't blame yard jockeys for that one. Flats, sometimes, flat spots, more likely, but not just plain worn out.

    I'm sure they find you a swap to make OTD on that load. Of course, the other side of that is they are going to expect you to run like the wind for as long as you can to help with finding a swap. Not saying that you won't, it's just some drivers seem to get lazy when they know they will be doing a swap. You're sitting there with a load that needs to go go go and the other guy is stopping to smell the roses every 5 miles.
