    Slowest month in 2 years

    I've been lucky this month with my loads paying 1.45 up for distance. 1450, 1100, 2200 and Monday out of SD to Omaha 1600 and change. Best load this month 2.02 for 1100 miles. But I also posted that Feb and March were a bust.

    FedEx Truck, Bus Crash

    Come to find out that the driver took over in Sacramento because of a shift change not for a accident. I thought it would have been hard for the first driver to make the run within the 12 hours he or she needed.

    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.
