    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    Since the Nissan was going the same way as the bus it wasn't the cause of the truck crossing the freeway. Please read the part that the Nissan was in front of the bus. CHP spokesperson Tracy Hoover said the truck sideswiped the sedan, which was in front of the bus, before striking the bus...

    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    This is why I say that the car was going the same was. This is from a CBS Bay Area story. CHP spokesperson Tracy Hoover said the truck sideswiped the sedan, which was in front of the bus, before striking the bus head on. Both the truck and the bus went up in flames moments after the collision.

    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    Big Al, that might be true, but FedEx leases the trucks from the owners and FedEx like all other companies that hire O/O's approve all drivers that are in the trucks and can tell the owners of the trucks that drivers aren't qualified to drive for FedEx.

    Dead head

    I guess Landstar will be one of the only percent companies after June 1st from what I just read on the FedEx forum here... Then again, that might not last long if they can't get the freight to load on their expedite trucks.. We slowed down right after they sold the brokerage house last year.
