Has something like this happened to you at JB Hunt or any trucking company? Seems like an easy mix up 😢
Something similar happened to me
U now they have to keep prying u for this I happen to me they just settle for me
an easy mix up with potentially frustrating consequences, maby dangerous consequences.
MuthaTrucker.... So Sorry for this driver... so, she has been to court 4 or 5 times for this BS... WHERE, is JB Hunt in all of this? Have they "hung her out to dry, and letting her bare the brunt in all of this? JB Hunt should be in the courtroom... Not her!!
Mark my words - this IS, only going to get worse.
What you're seeing here, is Communism at work... and this is "Nothing" compared to what is coming. I tried desperately to warn the public in public meetings that all this was coming... all during the 1970's, but the "sheep" were sleeping and not paying attention.... they're Still Not, and "Trump" isn't going to "fix" Anything, for those who are stupid enough to actually believe that he's going turn this country around... "IF", there even is an election by Nov.... personally, I rather doubt it.. and it's all a sham, anyway.
There are NO "two parties" in this country anymore... there IS, One... with two heads, and the End Result is still the same.... Tyrannical Communism.
The NWO.. is just another name for Global Communism.
This country is like the cow that is shot dead.... and forgot to fall over. The country is Finished, and in more ways than one. There IS coming (as I warned 50+ years ago).... a second Civil War, Very Soon... and Russia, Will finish us off.
PS: I'm also a retired O/O (Owner/Operator) of 30 years, plus another 22+ years (before and after) as a driver... that's 52+ years, and No Accidents... just a few "high speed driving awards". : )
March 1986 at Dickeyville, Badger coop.
NAVL tractor, Schweiger trsiler.
Wole up the CEO of NAVL at 03:30 -
Ft. Wayne time.
It even took him 30 minutes to explain to the 6 man crew there and they ended up calling the Schweiger at 4am.
Cuffed but never stuffed then released with absolutely zero paperwork from them. Off to Salty we went.
I was only the co-driver.
In the end they showed us the door because I, even as a somewhat newb and trusting fool too, myself then,
wouldn't let them NOT hear what I had to say !
Keep in mind that was 1986.
So many inspections over all the years I spent out there, passed every one, 99.9% perfect score overall - Cali too !
Initial impressions - observations of each - driver and leo - of each other.
Appearance to me was key, my personal and that of my trusty steed and its 53' tail.
If it wasn't right to a tee, I did not go until it was or as soon to be healed as it, whatever the problem, could be.
Over time I could haul one pallet less because of the weight of all the tools and chains that I ended up carrying.
Never know, might need this, might need that, better keep it just in case.
Above the tools though, required would be ingenuity, imagination and a general sense of any common sense which seems to be vacant in the heads of many these days.
Work smart, not stupid.
Laziness in action usually results in more work being done than necessary.
That all boils down to a matter of personal work ethics - some have good ones, others none at all.
I'd better end here...
As an ex-JB HUNT driver, they dropped the ball on this one. LAWSUIT
YEAH, SUCK IT, to JB HUNT!!!
She should use that money for gym memberships
Owner of a gym.. I see a Business owner soon to be ❤
@@Seri-Katil
you would be pretty fucking fat too if you drove truck for a living, that lifestyle is very tough to keep weight off because your driving of up to 15 hours a day, hell you live in your truck always having to eat out because you can't make food or spend time making food, the companies are also tough of them getting to their destination on time so they have to cut short on sleep and all kinds of nonsense.
trust me, you would be a fat fuck too if you drove for a living.
@Seri-Katil so that's all you got from this video, what a pos you are.
The District Attorney needs to drop this case immediately. The fact that the District Attorney is still pursuing this tells me that the District Attorney is corrupt and incompetent.
LOL. The barrier to proof of corruption for you is pretty low. We certainly do not have the whole story.
Those cops KNEW that this could have been handled in a different way. They knew it. This is what happens when you hire the unqualified and give them a badge!
Cop has issues, for sure. IMO, power trip.
Cop was pretty nice to her, seemed like it was just part of the procedure but the cop knew the company fked up and he was apologetic he had to process her.
I think cops knew stolen status of trailer, they wanted someone to hook and roll with it so they could get someone. If anything, cop was too nice to her.@@anthonywilliams3606
I do hope she sues the hell out of that police force!
Why? They didn't do anything wrong. Stop blaming the wrong people.
Police need to be sued in cases like this because they had no evidence that the driver had did anything wrong, they know that drivers pick up and drop off trailers all the time with no way to know the history of the trailer they are hauling. One of the reason crimes is getting so bad in this country is because instead of arresting known bad people they are going after the good people.
I am by know means a pro-LEO "back the blue" nonsense guy. #FTP, but whatever you just said is rooted in absolute delusion on this one. She about to make JB Hunt the next YRC.@@ij2750
It's a war on truckers period!!!! She is about to have a nice lawsuit!!!!
Nope it's on her she didn't do a proper pre trip..
It’s a license plate issue no trucker has that information only the company
@bgrand5168 nope check the trailer registration... it says on the paper work who owns the trailer.. she clearly never looked.. her 👎 bad nitwit
@@stephaniecalvo2638😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yep
JB HUNT need to pay this young lady. Them cops was some real assholes. They could have had trailer towed instead of locking her up😒
No they should've notified JB Hunt to clear it up on the spot and contact the leasing company then let her go on the way.
I drove for over 14 years I would never have known if a trailer is stolen I only picked up what they told me to I think it's all on JB Hunt and I think there's a good lawsuit there
Damn right they're going to tow her truck and the trailer cuz they connected in the slimeball tow truck driver is going to be going all through her s*** in the truck . That's bull $#¡t
The officers did exactly what they are supposed to do and the arresting officer clearly explained why it was happening with another officer saying they could talk more after it was already explained.
Rule #1 in trucking know what you are hauling and who you are working for .
The nerve of JB Hunt to do this to an employee and not have her back.
Hunt is trying to get her to come back, she said so. Hunt will sneak in paper to sign so she can't sue them. Hold her ground and get good counsel. JB Hunt is
manipulative!
JB Hunt didn't do anything. The plates were wrong and if that's the case the leasing company screwed up or just didn't know and the cops should actually be sued because arresting her was extreme when they clearly knew she wasn't guilty of a crime.
Then where is the company support for the driver. @nammoses7800
@@darrylpierce3345 they've reached out to her. She's said it herself. What kind of support do you want them to give?
All the above should be sued. She said she had her BOL but didn't say she verified the info on it. I assume she verified. I think cops knew ahead of time about stolen trailer status and waited for someone to hook and roll with it. Cops don't go around checking on stolen trailers, that story doesn't make sense.@@nammoses7800
If the cops are telling you to sue the company you know they fucked up big time
They definitely hooking her up when they arrested her. Makes for more money in the settlement for emotional duress etc., bond, etc. they lowkey hooked her up and let her know it wasn’t her fault. Bad part is even if she doesn’t sue they’ll find a way to terminate her as retaliation
Or say she was complacent🙄
Facts
As an Ex-JB Hunt driver, the BOL shows the trailer number and the seal. You must verify those first before attaching anything to your truck. If those are correct and the trailer was indeed reported stolen, then management failed and a lawsuit should be filed
100%
Well trailer number yeah but I don't know about seal. If the trailer is in the door or backed butt up to another trailer you gotta hook up to it to pull it out
If it’s Home Depot the guard has to check it as well . Sounds like a misunderstanding between the leasing company and the carrier .
@@Peterblack12drivers dont hook to trailers at doors in home depot DC
The point of misunderstanding is about the license plate. The trailer is verified by the BOL however as we have heard Alex speak about the ineffectiveness on both sides. However in case of the licensing plate the original trailer that plate belongs to could possibly be stolen 🤷♂️
This makes me angry.😡😡😡 This is ridiculous. She was totally in compliance with the officer’s, so why are they putting handcuffs on her and why not wait until JB Hunt got this straightened this out? JB Hunt needs to step up and get this taken care of now.
GOOD LUCK on that, do your job and get arrested!!! JB HUNT SUCKS!!! they dummies at JB HUNT!!!
This is all JB's fault because no driver picks up a trailer unless the company tells him to none that I know of anyway
processing is BIG MONEY to them, that is why
Yeah, too bad the officers didn't hang out with her until it got straightened out. I mean, it has only been 7+ months and there looked to be a gas station right across the street that could be used for some snacks and bathroom while they waited.
@@RealzFoShojb hunt,, you pillows too
First, you need to notify the department of labor about your situation. You had to call your dispatcher and notify them about the situation at hand and have them talk to the police. Since HB Hunt did not resolve the matter immediately, you need to speak to a lawyer about seeking compensation. You need to see a doctor for your anxiety, stress, mental anguish, and all other ailments that situation has caused you. This is also causing you to have a criminal record that will affect you for the rest of your life. You need to seek financial help because that situation is preventing you from being able to perform your work duties. You are suffering from a lot, which will equal huge damages.
Yup all of that
Take them to Federal court!!
This happened twice to me with jb hunt last year. both times the company denied any wrong doing and put it all on me. After the first time I should have quit. After the first time I started calling in the license plates into local law enforcement before hooking up this is not a one off incident by far. I quit jb 2 months ago but the company states I refused loads.....hell yeah when the plate is not valid. Good luck Stay safe fellow drivers
Your comment makes me wonder how many more JB hunt drivers got stuck with the short end of the stick. Smells like a multimillion lawsuit with JB Hunt. Perhaps you and this other driver should start looking into this. Then perhaps this mega company will stop doing this to drivers
That was handled in the dumbest way, I don't care for jb hunt but,arresting the driver was 100% dumb! Driver is going to get a good lawyer and lawsuits are coming!
problem is, none of these lawsuits ever really effect the officer, it's only a penalty on tax payer dollars since this is how the police are payed, kind of stupid that you can't sue the individual police officer if you ask me, it's the same for any other government official, they don't get sued, the government get's sued which is tax payer funded.
@@user-tp5yb4hr4w cops just doing there job
100 % right, incompetent cops.. don t go for the manager or ceo of jb , that s to dangerous ..go for little one . Inaccurate investigation and numerous trips to the court just shows how incompetent the all system is .. they don t know who to blame.
When she wins the arrest record will follow her the rest of her life, and you can never beet the ride to jail
Years ago I found out they were sh**
All I know JB Hunt Got To Give This Young Lady A Crazy Settlement In The Next Few Weeks.
Hunt better make this right.
they won't
I wouldn't be crying. I would be laughing my way to the bank. Lawsuits for company, lawsuits for popice, and lawsuit for lunch
Alex...GET THIS DRIVER A GOOD LAWYER. She will make great money from the PD. The officer that arrested this person and their supervisor made a big big mistake. The follow up detective had to apply for a warrant. It was very e-z to contact JB Hunt and find out if she was a theft suspect.
The arresting officer did exactly what they were supposed to do. People need to get off the idea that the officer on the side of the road being at fault. In the clip shown he clearly explained what he was doing, and why. He was following what procedure tells him to do, based on the information he has. Place the blame in the right place. Stop trying to drag in people who are just doing their job and are not at fault for what lead to that point.
shutcho @@RealzFoSho
@@RealzFoSho- the information he had, told him this was a company driver, who is NOT responsible for verifying her company or their customer is not providing her “stolen equipment”
If she had just picked up that trailer from someone selling it that would be one thing, but as soon as the VIN came back as not being the stolen trailer, then they had no case, other than her being in possession of a stolen license plate, that she did not put on that trialer, and could not be expected to verify against the VIN, in ANY sort of normal business practices.
She never drove a stolen trailer, only one with the license plate from a stolen trailer, that was likely swapped by whoever stole the stolen trailer.
@@orcoastgreenman Literally written in the rules that you are responsible as a driver, company or not, to verify the information for the equipment you are operating. VIN and plate are printed right on both the registration and insurance for the trailer. You are legally required to verify it and ensure your registration, plate, trailer, and insurance are all correct and in order before hauling the trailer.
How does the officer know that she didn't put that plate on the trailer? There was a chance she wasn't innocent and arresting her is the step an officer takes to get her to court so the folks there can gather all the information, hear her testimony under oath, and make a ruling. This isn't complicated stuff and it is a bit alarming that it seems so many are failing to understand it.
That lady should have never been taken into custody. The stolen property should have been confiscated unless they knowingly or seen her steal the trailer or plate. This is another case of they know the charge against her won’t stick but let’s mess up her background. Now she has to put forth money and time to have the arrest removed from her background.
AS TO BE EXPECTED THE DRIVER WAS HUNG OUT TO DRY/MEGA CARRIERS HAVE GOTTEN TO BIG TO CARE ABOUT THERE DRIVERS
This should not have happened. Everything should be on J B Hunt.
Sounds like a huge lawsuit for unlawful arrest. She needs to hire a civil rights attorney though because a regular trial lawyer won’t get her the money she deserves.
That’s some dirty shit, JB hunt couldn’t do anything?????? And the cops had to cuff her😒 this is crazy….
YEAH, They need to arrest dem top JB HUNT dummies!!!
Not that cop trying gas light the fact that she was getting arrested and have a case to fight it in court!!!! Although she’s clearly innocent and unaware of the fact that it’s “stolen” or wrong “plates”… That’s just ridiculous!! It’s the fact that she would’ve have to live with that record for the rest of her life even though she’s innocent! Hope not only she wins, but countersue!! That’s going to be time and money she’ll definitely lose out on!!!
Needs to be expunged!!!
she hasn't been convicted, go to court and have it dismissed, she shud b ok 🙂
Typical treatment from management, no support for the driver, kiss the law's butt , ex J.B. Hunt driver and glad of it.She needs a good lawyer and some Jenny Craig.
@@MrSamadolfo actualy watch the video. shes been battling it for 7 months, has criminal charges for theft placed on her and jb hunt still callin her trying to see when she is gna come back to work, charges havent been dropped as of yet
@@erick1076 😕 oh, im really sorry to hear that, this is excessive, i pray that she gets this straighten out 🙏
Power trip.
A similar situation happened to a YT trucker a few years ago. In his vlog he was pulled over by police for a “stolen” trailer. Long story short the police had him return the trailer to the distribution center he picked it up from. They escorted him back there and that was it. They understood that mistakes was made and it wasn’t on the driver.
Young lady I'm so sorry! I pray this gets worked out for her favor! Seriously!😁🙏
Amen to that!!
WRONG TREATMENT.
That is Wrong as Wrong can get.
There was no need to arrest her. Cowards !!!
Stop blaming the people doing exactly what they are supposed to do. This is on the prosecutor and the court.
Rule #1 in trucking know what you are hauling and who you are working for .
Idk what to say about this... im dumbfounded. I currently drive locally for j.b.hunt and have worked for them for over 6 years. This issue has nothing to do with the driver. How is the driver being held accountable for this? The ownership of the trailer and the leasing agreement/licensing of the trailer all falls on the company. Im kinda angry with the company on why they arent taking responsibility for it and coming to the drivers aid. Im gonna bring this up to my boss tomorrow and run it up the chain to see what is said about it. Very bad message to send your drivers to just throw this girl under the bus and let her deal with the consequences. Ill find another job.
So, what would JB Hunt do if every driver called in the vin and tag of every trailer to the local PD before they hooked? If JB is not standing behind the driver and claiming that the driver is somehow responsible, then the drivers need to check every trailer. This will swamp the cops ( especially Perth Amboy ) and cost JB Hunt lots pf lost time. And all they have to do to stop it is do the right thing and stand behind their drivers when mistakes get made.
Major lawsuit. On the company.
This is perfect use for a channel like this. Thanks for not selling out man.
reminds me of rental car companies reporting cars stolen, when it is lost in the system, but many lives were f up, smh, protect yallselves yall, lawyer up and study law on the side, smh
Utter incompetence by the police. This is why local cops should stay out trying to enforce trucking related issues if it's not an emergency. She should have never been arrested. I'm a driver manger at a trucking company and depending on where the trailer was leased from its hard to keep track if the trailer is goes out of state or network. Eventually an alert goes out to track it down but depending on where it is companies will try to get the unit loaded in order to bring it back. You don't make money hauling empties. If it was a mix up with the plates then it's the leasing companies fault and not JB Hunts. The cops still never should've arrested her.
Most police in America have no respect for working class people! They know most of them can't afford a good.lawyer and they will make a plea deal for you even if you are not guilty of some low hanging fruit offense! Hmmm Liberty and Justice for all?????
Omg! If I were a judge I would drop this. These cops need to be investigated for incompetence! I could see them having it unhooked and towed away but why do that to her 😢😢😢
The problem is they'll investigate themselves and find they're not incompetent.
The cops did exactly what they are supposed to do and there is good reason that she got arrested and booked. That way we all know she saw a judge, who actually has the job of judging whether or not someone is guilty (unless a jury is requested). Blame needs to stop being placed on the officers. They did exactly what they were supposed to do and seemed to be doing it very professionally and with some kindness. Blame needs to start with the court system taking so long to sort this out for this lady.
@RealzFoSho You have clearly never heard of officer discretion. They didn't have to make an arrest. They certainly didn't need to handcuff her. They could've deferred to the prosecutors office.
@@JMosUndefeated Again, they did what they are supposed to do. Some serious armchair quarterbacking going on for someone who was simply doing their job the way they are trained to do it.
I know what officer's discretion is. This is possession of stolen property, and we aren't talking about a Snickers' bar. Smart discretion is an officer covering their rear by doing what the law says in arresting the person in possession and letting someone more qualified to make a judgement. Someone who has access to, or can demand (not just request) from prosecution, all the evidence.
Most of the time rolls of paper don't move much. But you still want friction mats just in case. I would expect an officer to cuff a person they might personally believe is innocent for the very same reason, just in case. They might have it wrong in their judgement of innocence, but they also might have it right and still run into a problem if the person isn't cuffed. Innocent people can be unstable in situation like that and put others at risk.
@@RealzFoSho She is an employee for a company and had a b.o.l. for a load and she stopped for an officer. It is extremely low chance of actual theft here. A highly likely scenario is a paperwork error up the company chain. It would be like if your company sent you some tools or laptop and then report it missing. Would you want an officer to arrest and handcuff you for a mix up on paperwork?
Sue jb hunt
When trucking corporations get too big, they tend to make more mistakes like these. That’s why I’m worried about the future of the Knight/Swift merger
Not only can't I believe the fact she was arrested. I can't believe the charges ain't been dropped yet. Time to lawyer up
It would appear to be a completely unnecessary arrest.
No! No! No! She is a working American citizen. By all means, arrest her. It's the illegals that shouldn't be arrested. 😒
Because someone not doing their job in the office cause this! This big mega carriers ain’t ---. Somebody got to pay for their mistake! 🤦♂️ this is sad! This is the new America.
She doin her job it’s a license plate issue it’s not her job to know that it’s the company
The police acted stupid here. No reason to arrest a worker for a company mistake.
So sorry that happened to you smh.. 😢JB Hunt should be held responsible for that and they should pay for her lawyer to get them false charges dropped.
Lawsuit
We going to need a update on this after she gets situated.
Sue the cops.
The absurdity of the justice system.
Honest hard working people aren't stealing tags for sticking Mega carriers just to do a job.
Mutha Trucker I actually cried while they arrrested her and 7-8 months later she still in dem courts! This young lady can legally win if she sues and press charges for harassing you wit dem foolish calls
J.B. Hunt better clear that up for her.
This reminds of what happened to a Schneider driver years ago. That driver was arrested for picking up a loaded trailer in Laredo,Texas that full of drugs. Schneider left that driver to fend for himself. So to make a long story short, that driver is now a millionaire. 0:17
This game is crazy....scamms are beginning to get more and more sophisticated
This upsets me. I wouldn't settle out of court either. They gone pay her millions
Most of these police now a day's don't know the law they just make law on the spot
I drove for JB Hunt and felt very uncomfortable the whole time since day one, and yes, it is customary at jb hunt
She need to get a lawyer and sue jb hunt
Lawsuit ???
I’d be asking questions about the trailer. Didn’t see any JB Hunt decals on the trailer that there’s a dead giveaway. I’d be on the phone to dispatch.
I’ve already heard some of the horror stories about JB Hunt and this one seems like a nightmare.
Wishing this driver the best of luck and the settlement’s a big win.
Yep if it doesn't say jb. I'd been on phone. Seen more than once whete load was put on wrong trailer
How ‘bout we create a REAL trucker shortage?
She needs a lawyer
As a someone that is part of the trucking community and someone that has been in the system in my younger day's, these Leo's did way to much. First off, if it's a "ticket", you don't take no one into booking for a ticket, second, placing cuffs on a non threatening, non combative woman is ridiculous. Now, they do have to put cuffs on you while in transport to the station, but they also could have placed them in front. Also since she was local they could have gaven her an opportunity to move the truck to a safe location. Now JB will not own up to this (obviously) and their argument will be, once our driver's pick up a trailer, company owned or otherwise, it is their responsibility to ensure everything is in working order and everything matches. Let's keep it 100, who the hell ever checks the registration to a trailer to make sure the plate matches? I'll wait....
I genuinely hope, that this woman gets the justice she deserves for humiliation, stress, financial loss and the list goes on. The Leo's and JB are way wrong in this one.
I drive for JB as a owner operator JB has a big contract to pull Home Depot’s freight and from my experience that i ran across is that when a load is loaded on any trailer that isn’t from the division that a driver is in or a different trailer that it’s NOT a JB trailer the driver CANNOT pull it unless the driver calls JB to get it authorize to pull that trailer or the driver cannot pull it
The BOL is authorization to move that load on that trailer. Trailer leases are common for all trucking companies...
Just because bol says that trailer doesn't mean it was loaded on wrong trailer. Best to call and confirm
It's not about the BOL or load. It's about the trailer being reported stolen. Bowman could have brokered the load with JB Hunt to haul their load in their trailer and that's why they are pulling it. If I was her I would show that JB Hunt dispatched me to pull that trailer. I know they wouldn't care but it would show I didn't take a trailer without permission.
Plates are stolen. Someone could have swapped plates for ones that were not going to get flagged in weight stations.
It's a revenue grab. The bonds, securities, and administrative hearings that are generated thru this technicality all equal revenue for the state of. Not to mention whatever is generated thru attaching her license number, SSN, etc. This is no longer a Constitutional Republic. It's military occupation, and these are policy enforcers. If you don't know, you better research it.
Amen, we are not on the 'land if the free,' we are on the 'land of the opressed,' got to have big money to be free, and freedom not cheap.
Good old boys network she hires a n attorney who play golf or in same country club as the judge etc etc
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
I thought handcuffing was an officer's discretion.
same ....
"How did you get a Bowman trailer? " That's a really stupid question. It happens all the time regardless of whether you are a company driver or an owner operator. Trucking companies swap trailers all the time. I have pulled trailers from hundreds of different companies. She got dispatched, she got the BOL with that trailer number, she did nothing wrong.
Let me tell you something else a lot of trailers sitting in drop and hook yards have registrations expired. You need to check that.
She did nothing wrong.
Yea it’s absolute nonsense and clueless cops have no idea about it
Yeah when I could first get permanent tags for trailers it made life so much easier. I thought everybody bought permanent tags now
If Bowman was worried about that trailer, why not use a kingpin before she had a chance to hook up??
Its very common that loads get contracted out on load boards because there may not be a truck in that area. Megas book loads first then worry about finding a truck to haul it later. So you'll see other carriers hauling trailers belonging to other carriers.
Makes sense. When going with plan B tractor, timing to get a kingpin removed could be a problem. This arrest still sounds super fishy.@@tripplefives1402
I have never heard of such a thing. I heard of impounding the trailer. And especially a company driver ,wow!!! What is going on with this world...
It is f ed from the top down!
That cop is a loser. I’m sure they could have handled this differently instead of putting charges on her, and putting her through that. Once she showed she was dispatched to pick that trailer up, she should have been in the clear, impound the trailer and deal with the company 🙄
Cop did exactly what he was supposed to. Cops don't put charges on anyone. They arrest so a person sees a judge and then a prosecutor decides whether or not to file charges after reviewing the evidence.
I swear, some of the people here would blame their big toe for hurting after they dropped a brick on it.
Abusive pig
1. She was arrested for being in pocession of stolen property. No fault of the arresting officers.
2. She had a BOL. A BOL does not discriminate being in possession of stolen property.
3. Did she match the trailer registration with the plate on the trailer as part of her pre-trip inspection? Most drivers forget this step and just hook and go. If she matched the registration with the plate, along with the BOL, then it still is being in possession of stolen property, yet a defense can be established that she was unable to be aware that the property was stolen. This would have fallen back on J.B. Hunt and her charges would be dismissed on account that no reasonable person in her position would have known the property was stolen. This is called “mens rea” or in layman terms a guilty mind.
This doesn’t mean that her case cannot be dismissed. It’s a good chance that with proper representation, she could prove insufficient evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to support a guilty verdict.
Lastly, she clearly has suffered emotional distress which could be brought up in civil litigation particularly if it is proven that J.B. Hunt should have known that the trailer was reported stolen and they had a duty to make sure that that trailer was not to be used but failed to do so. I’m sure J.B. Hunt will put up a defense for this.
No part of my analysis of this situation should be taken as legal advice. I’m not a licensed attorney and do not hold myself out to be a licensed attorney. My analysis is based purely on my opinion of what I learned in law school. Please seek the advice of a licensed attorney.
Why isn't the company where she picked up the trailer from being charged? It seems, that she was setup.
They could've taken the license off of the trailer. And verified it was a customer's dedicated account trailer. And then taken that trailer to the terminal. And handled with JB Hunt management. That was BS. I've seen drivers drive through a scale without a license plate. I hope she got the righteous justice from all of this. SMH. Sighhhhh.
Oh I cant see no justice here at all! Why is this taking even more than one day in court??? WTH! JB HUNT OWES HER!!!
Same thing Hertz car rentals did and do.
As a retired police officer and in the latter part of my career a patrol supervisor, I find a lot wrong with this. I also hold a CDL-A and have driven OTR and local. Now I drive a bus part-time. My first question is why the officer stopped this driver? Was there a lookout broadcast for stolen trailers? What reason did they have to check the plates on this truck? Next, did the plates match the trailer? That is a big question, it could have only been a stolen plate. Did the officer contact their supervisor for guidance? Did the officers understand the BOL document? I cannot see any justification for arresting this driver no matter what state it occurred in. This woman needs a good lawyer. I wish her well and hope she continues trucking, with some company other than J.B. Hunt. And before anyone replies with hate mail about cops and tickets. I got in trouble often for not writing enough of them. It took 3 chiefs retiring before I ever got promoted. If I wrote a ticket it was well deserved. And there is no way I would have allowed the arrest of this driver on my watch.
Lots of PDs have automated plate scanners. They flag tags that have problems. That's almost certainly why they stopped this truck. The issue is that this was a local PD making a stop on a CMV. And not understanding that to the driver, the BOL is all they have, and all they should need. If the BOL matched the trailer, this should have been a ticket at worst. But, the cop probably did not understand that. And no one has been willing to step up and make this right.
If JB is not steeping up and providing her with legal council to prove her innocence, then she needs to get a good lawyer on her own and sue the pants off all parties involved. This story should make national news. And JB drivers need to step up and boycott them. Cause any of those 26k drivers could find themselves in situation next time around. Unfortunately this is our legal system now, guilty until proven innocent. The govt is completely out of control, unbelievable.
They want her to come back to work and get her to forego any lawsuit against them in one of the 99 signatures requested..
Get a lawyer and file a BIG lawsuit against JB Hunt.
I tell any and all truckers to not work for JB Hunt, my experience with hunt was I pick up a tractor check my permits it had 1 missing permit for Oregon fuel tax permit, I call and told the manager it was missing they said not to worry because I wasn't going through Oregon well my first load for them was in Oregon I got pulled in the weigh station and ended up getting A $435 ticket.
The company could have called ahead and gotten the permit in advance of reaching the scale, this stuff is handled over the internet...
@@stephendrake8145 they could have and should have but they didn't I called many times to get this done and they didn't do anything until after I got the ticket.
Why if you knew you had a missing permit for a state that you then were dispatched to.,…why would you proceed? This has nothing to do with Hunt by your own common sense. Permits Link (tied to your unit #) probably had the permit available online (acceptable to DOT) but if not…sounds like you don’t have a lot of common sense.
She needs to sue jb hunt! And the police officers that arrested her!!
So many questions. Who reported the trailer stolen? Did the VIN and the plate number match on the registration during the pre-trip inspection? Any carrier with hundreds of trailers has issues keeping track of them, possibly more if they’re leasing trailers. You have to protect your CDL from their mismanagement. It’s easy to get rushed in this industry, but it only takes one incident to severely impact your driving record and earning potential.
She definitely gonna get paid. I think she just gotta settle those criminal charges first before she can raise a civil suit
JB Hunt stole the trailer. They should have already cleared this up for her. This is some evil sh*t from Hunt.
Law enforcement arrest someone who is working to provide for her family no harm to the public and end up like a criminal, girl get a lawyer and suit them both and retired early. As a trucker for the last 25 years I never saw something like this 😡 FJBH
They want to destroy the middle class, and us truck drivers are a majority of the middle class. Get rid of these federal agencies, fmcsa to the epa, to the fbi.
Few years ago I got pulled over in Arkansas because my company reported loaded trailer I’m attached to is being stolen. It was terrifying moment but I have learned lesson to never move equipment without written permission from registered owner/company.
Great work you do for the Trucking Community! 👍🏽
I would have been calling my attorney warp speed. She didn't do anything and this is BS police work. 😡
ILL SUE THE HECK OUT OF THEM AND IM SURE SHE NEEDS COUNSELING 😉 LOST WAGES , PUBLIC EMBARRASSMENT, EMOTIONAL DISSTRESS ETC‼️
PLEASE, don't get hire or hauled for JB Hunt. Something similar happens to me
This girl needs to get an attorney a long time ago. And needs to sue Jb Hunt!!
This has happened to me! 09SEP23 in Garden City GA. The tanker I was pulling, which was leased was reported stolen 01SEP23 from Kansas City KS. I went through the same process only difference is they conducted a felony stop on me. I was booked and had to be bonded out. I have no criminal history not even a speeding ticket on my record. It took 6 months and a ton of record for the prosecutor to dismiss the case. Leasing companies use law enforcement as their repo agencies instead of going through the civil process. My heart goes out to her, I know the trauma this has caused.
How embarrassing humiliating. My heart goes out to this girl caught up in this situation.
Don't give up! Keep your chin up ! We need drivers like you out here that love the job .
Why not cite and release? They usually only lodge when language barrier, no ID, anything that questions their ability to show up for court. There must be a more serious back story to this.
Jb Hunt is probably like you should’ve done your pre-trip. Double check that the trailer is owned and paid for lol I’m sure they’ll have some way to spin it on the driver.
As usual.
Lol
Now you have to call the police to make sure the trailers not stolen. This place is so wicked America!!!!
I had a similar encounter... Same company's... The driver was actually transporting the trailer as a load out... One thing after another... Bottom line they tried to report the trailer as stolen even with all the documentation and evidence at check out... When I was done with them... Their accusation turned into apologies and more payment for the driver it was Diplomacy or lawsuit to protect out drivers. There system is flaud and they know it. You've got to know your rights.
JB HUNT sending their own PEOPLES to JAIL. BAD ON JB HUNT!!! JB HUNT, they suck, SUCK IT, JB HUNT!!! I hope she calls on a good lawyer peoples!!!
If the company is going to be responsible. Why are you arrested her???
You'd think the officer would let her contact her work to iron out the issue with them. So ridiculous.
This is really weird, as a JB Hunt driver, you can't even attach to a trailer without letting them know what trailer number you have. Many times there's issues with the trailer and they will say "you're not good to roll, call roadside and see what's going on" that can go for anything including tags and registration. So it doesn't make sense because this trailer would've been flagged an issue.
This lady needs the charges dropped they should be on jbh she needs her record expunged !
