In my modest tenure, fully 1 out of 2 of the trucks I have personally seen BLAZE belong to SWIFT. That math does not corroborate your statement.
Swift at it again

Well going south on interstate 24 right before you hit georgia I've seen 2 big G express trucks flipped over does that make their company dangerous on the roads. I've never seen anybody else wrecked down through their.Cledus Snow Thanks this.

See this,
I parked next to this dude in Oregon. This is a perfect example of what we are talking about. How many of their trucks have damage like this? Half? That's a fair guess. That shows the attitude of the entire company, they attempt to drive around, and they constantly crash into stuff. It shows the attitude of the company. Walk through the truck stop your at. Count SWIFT trucks, count with damage, prove me wrong.HalpinUout Thanks this. -
Do you work for Swift?

Out of all the pictures of trucking accidents posted online, why is it when it's 2 trucks from the same company getting tangled together it's always Swift??? I have yet to see ANY pictures of any other company do this?Last edited: Apr 22, 2016
Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
I admit swift does put out alot of student that aren't road ready and they do get in alot of accidents. Not blaming the newbies at all but they do tend to hit stuff. I guess you do have a point.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this.

I've begun to see the major issue, in reverse particularly, as being one of clutch control - Swift could have 6 feet to back, two feet on either side of the trailer to maneuver and BAM! (Emeril style) - they're doing it in high range with their foot on the gas... they seem to fail to recognize that you can clutch drive and that you don't need throttle for everything...... I also watched a young female Werner driver make too early of a cut today (WAY too early, like she was driving an AMC Pacer early) which caused her trailer to eat the side of a large coiled ream of aluminum... You can fix inattentive and inexperienced, but you can't fix stupid. And each day there seems less irony that 'Swift' is the moniker given to the retarded kid...
