Safety means nothing to CRE

Ok factualy correct. You are claiming that you spent 7 hours out on the truck for four days in a row??? (3 students 2 hours each plus 2 fifteen minute breaks and 1 thirty minute lunch). First off the smallest truck load for me or my wifes seperate classes was a 4 man truck plus instructor, the average size was 5 students though. Each day we got one drive period of less than 30 minutes. Thats less than 2 hours. Maybe you got realy realy lucky but I think not. I recorded my time properly so I know how much behind the wheel time I had. My wife's class was HUGE so they got even less time.

They clearly state you make more money, you get first choice in freight over company drivers, you spend less time at $ 0.12 a mile if you lease. The flip side is company drivers spend more time training at $0.12, get the freight ic's wont take , forced dispatch, left over trucks that they can pull from you at any time, forced compliance to all fuel stops, no pets, and no idling. Once you finish sitting in class being hammered by the sales pitch and two extra months of phase two crap, what would you choose? The choice between being force feed a turd sandwich or not isnt a choice. Funny how they wont tell you this BEFORE you come out and waste time and money. No one ever said you had to lease but they sure as hell push and push and push for you to.

So you admit you know all this already, how about the people they bs into coming out every week? I heard nearly everyone in class say they didnt know all this.

Week is one thing, but months to years is something more. What about the 3 dead students and trainers the happened in the 45 days before this 'bad week'? I've read the Qualcomm messages with my own eyes where CRE anouched a fatality one day (pointing out the dead student wasnt part of thier fleet because they put him with a brand new leasing IC), then anouced how the just had a great safety week three days later. The worst part was after we walked past that truck several times a day all crunched up in the yard, an instructor came into class and told us CRE still hadnt talked to his family.

So getting a guy a CDL with your class, shortening his training to 40 days, making him a trainer emediately upon finishing training, assigning him a student and putting him in the same truck... That somehow means they should have no responsibility when the trainer killes the student and himself delivering thier load?!? The familiar words on the side of every ICs truck are 'Operated by CR England'. Csa should definately do something, if they did then CRE would have a much much worse reputation because you could see all the responsibility they are avoiding.

Sorry someone wasnt quicker. I would have liked to know how bad they were so I could have made a better decision. CRE was the worse mistake of MY life.

Hehe sorry. Didnt mean to interfeir with them. By all means continue, but I would like to hear more on everyones experiences with safety, that way no one gets the idea of one disgruntled dude shaking thier tree. Ive met so so sooo many people with bad cre experiences to share. So are prety outrageous.

 

The reasons why they do 60 days of phase two boils down to the points.
1. It helps leasers with thier outragous lease payments.
2. It convinces students to lease.
3. If you are so determined to be a company man/woman they want to make sure you are safe because of Csa 2010 regulations. ICs can go kill themselves as long as they make the company sime money first.
