    We have enough laws already and government cannot fix all of societies ills...

    here is a thought.....why not start an all female trucking company that trains new female students...i bet you could get government grants to make it happen

    That's true,some females will lie just to get attention when in reality she wants ppl to think shes gods gift to men.Same with non drivers at companies that will try and frame male drivers for sexual advances.Then you get students like this article which I do believe because I've been thru it.Companies don't believe or take serious which is a safety concern.How can female students sleep or drive when all they worry about is what the male trainer will do next.

    Don't get me wrong...I know it happens out there, still is I'm sure. But both sides should be at least mentioned.

    @tow614
    Maybe you're on to something. Start a 3rd party company of all female trainers and contract your services out to other carriers.

    Hrm....

    So why aren't both sides ever mentioned?I have read many horror stories like this one and it's always a male trainer that gets named.Some females are worse then men but far as training I never hear of this happening.

    Well sure. But as a lady that's been out here 8 years and seen a fair share of misogyny myself it'd be a win-win.

    Personally I'm not cut out to be a trainer. But someone could and make a killing.

    You mean if I would have had a female trainer I could have been assaulted?

    I always miss out on the good stuff!:(
