Landair ruined my years of good driving record by putting a clearly non-preventable accident as preventable on my DAC report plus they never are reachable by employers that call for references on me (not even returning calls).
First of all, I have driven for 20 years without an accident or ticket (perfect record) and while driving for them one night, in the thick fog, on slippery wet pavement on a road not know (them forcing me to keep driving or else), I came down off a hill to a 4 way stop that I couldn't see until the last minute causing me to slam on my breaks and slide. This intern caused a jack knife.
There was not property damage, no injuries, no one else at the intersection, thank goodness. Police was called to report the accident and he even said that the particular intersection was bad and that it should have a stop light. Report was turned into Landair and the put it on my DAC report as preventable accident ruining my years of perfect record and any chance for a great trucking job.
Secondly, they don't return calls for references therefore blackballing me, as all truckers know how hard it is to get a good position, if a company doesn't give a reference.
They also, had held out pay on my pay checks for things that I should not have had to pay for and I had to call several times for it to be corrected. It took them several pay checks before they finally got it right (after promising several times that it would be corrected).
The place that I work for through Landair replaced them with another company in Akron, IN due to their dealings with Landair, also. My advice is to stay away from this company. It is bad news and it will ruin you!!!
