Swift Transportation
False Reports to DAC Ripoff

Add one more the the already long list of False reports filed to DAC by Swift Trans.

A little less than a year ago, I was hired by Swift Transportation and given a decent dedicated run. I actually enjoyed driving for Swift and even more, started to memorize the area between AZ and CA that I ran.

Of course I ran into some maintenance difficulties that would keep me sitting for about a week according to the repair facility that had my truck. The repair facility offered to simply exchange trucks. They would give me another truck that was in very good running condition inside and out and keep my truck once it was repaired to replace what they gave me. I thought that was a very good idea, however my driver manager did not.

After explaining this to my wife back in AZ, she packed the 2 small children in the car and drove 300 miles to pick me up. Needless to say, I couldnt't afford to be down for a week or possibly more.

What I dont understand is why a driver managers make bad calls, force drivers to leave a potentially good job. Then without the driver's knowledge of course, file false reports to dac, accident or otherwise making it difficult for the driver to find a better job with a better company.

No worries Swift, there was a happy ending to this story. I had to jump through a few hoops, however, I'm back on the highway turning enough miles and then some.
