    They don’t require the drivers to pass a background check ?
    And have a trackable Qualcomm that they can access the trucks telematics for speed , location, engine temp And all that etc ?

    They just use any random driver and truck off the load boards ?

    Its business, and about money! If it pays well, I don't care whats in my box as long as it not illegal.

    Pretty sure any drugs that arrive in containers, originated as poppies or leaves, and the guns, well.....
    Either way, I expect a taste.

    Yes thats all done before your hired.

    No extra electronics extra in the cab, the load more than likely has tracking device, but the only thing in the cab besides me is the escort, and they don't talk much.

    Nothing is random, there is not a public load board. The way I find out is my phone rings ( the phone issued to me by them. I am a employee of an agency that is a Federal Contractor. Most of my assignments are for 5 to 7 days at a time, I never now ahead at all till I get the report to info. I actually like it have been working for them for about 4 years.

    I do know how far I can go as far as info, I follow their rules to the tee. There are area's I would love to check out, But they are "no access". Also I cannot not speak of anything about current loads, describe location.
    But theres agreements that limit information repeated.
