    Well, with the amount of wrecks in BC over the last few years, and especially in the last year, the public, and especially those of us that have multiple milllions of miles under our wheels, need look no further for answers.

    There's been a flood of job ads in the last few years that say no experience required. We all know the reasons for that. But this is simply the scariest ad I've ever seen:

    Class 1 driver | Drivers & Security | Kamloops | Kijiji

    Yeah I did use the fax number to figure out who. I didn't want to mention the company name for obvious legal reasons. But I felt free to let them hang themselves with their own ad lol

    But maybe the office in Kamloops is the culprit.
     
    AModelCat Thanks this.

    I can't see how they could do anything about it legally. They posted an ad on the internet, any kid with an internet connection could Google the number and find out the company name. If they didn't want to be called out on it they shouldn't have posted it as far as I'm concerned lol.

    Driving experience is an asset but not required.

    with "so little" seemingly residential area, if one were to wreck, seems like no big deal...

    I used to live there. Probably about 90,000 residents. Its always busy and its kind of a hub in a way. CN and CP have rail yards there and a couple of major routes join together in or near the city. Likely these guys will probably just run from the bulk plant on Tranquille to the 2 rail yards or to a few logging contractor's shops. From the bulk plant to the CN and CP yards its maybe a 10 to 15 minute drive.
