- Are “Ghost Co-Drivers" the newest issue brought into the trucking industry after the ELD mandate?
In this video, Ronen discusses an article on FreightWaves showing a leaked video of a "Ghost Co-Drivers being added to a truck driver’s ELD to skirt HOS rules.
What are the most common things that Truck Drivers OR Fleet Owners do to manipulate driver LOGS?
1. Add Ghost Co-Drivers
2. Deactivate them
3. Put driver on personal conveyance
4. Shortening time at shippers and receivers
5. Delete trips

To all the self righteous on here, power to you! Small companies can't do drop and hook so half of the work day is spent waiting. When eld came into to effect the company i was working for went under because they were only able to book 400 miles runs in fear of not being able to deliver on time because half of the clock was spent waiting. Drivers started quitting because the miles weren't enough and went to bigger companies that did drop and hook. These small companies are not trying to one up the bigger companies. They are trying to survive.
Great comment, thank you for sharing. Small carriers are absolutely trying to survive, and we wish them all the best and success to stay afloat during these tough times.
I completely agree with you that using ghost drivers isn’t right nor safe, but the same point you just made about ghosting giving an edge over larger companies, could be used to prove that new regulations give an edge to larger companies over small ones.
Bingo!
Great comment, thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
Im exposing alot in expedite industry as well on my channel happening within our sylectus system. I exposed one company couple days ago had huge response internally and thru views. Im trying finish another episode for tonight about 14 more. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
I wish they would just extend a 16 hour drive time to any dot number with less than 10 trucks. The big corporations keep their refs they lobbied for and the rest of us get to work. Or, make extended hours a privilege of having a higher safety record. Like if you’ve had 0 accidents for 500,000 miles, you get exempted from HOS rules.
Perfect answer
It should also be illegal and wrong for my rent to go up 25% in less than a year, for my car insurance and commercial insurance to go up, for a dozen eggs to cost $5, for a gallon of diesel to be over $5, Go to the supermarket and see that everything costs triple
As an owner operator for almost 2 years, 34 years old, single, without children, without pets, healthy, truck and trailer paid off and I have to work all week for the business to be profitable, Don't be Ridiculous thinking that with the rate at 1.8 or maybe 2$ per mile and sleeping 10 hours and resetting 34 you're going to be successful in this business at these shit rates
@ET transport I'm going to go to Canada to work with you and do everything right and make 2 thousand dollars a week and then when my truck breaks down you're going to fix it for free ❤
Spot on. When the ELD went into my truck, I lost 30% right off the top, and that is when rates were good and fuel was not great, but not $4+ a gallon either. I worked a small regional area, most trips were under 100 miles, the majority under 60. I just parked my truck, screw this, I am driving locally for a small carrier. With the current situation out here, I am doing better driving their truck.
Sounds like you should sell the truck and get a local job paying by the hour. I've been a local driver for over 25 years, paid by the hour, for every hour that I work. I live comfortable working around 50 hours per week. I don't worry about fuel prices or the truck breaking down.
@@michaelwright1602 I didn't comment but I have a dry van, I'm thinking of getting a flatbed or stepdeck and working with a company that offers me a good lease, in these times being an owner operator is a piece of shit
The problem is that after you are an owner operator it is a bit difficult to feel comfortable on a schedule as a company driver.
@@scottcpan68 As I said in the other comment after being an owner operator and basically doing what you want it's hard to say goodbye and join a company
@@Leo-lz8yk Not really that difficult, I have been doing it with my own truck locally for over two years now. Work simply dried up. And it is nice not having the stress in regards to purchasing fuel and any maintenance on the truck. No longer my problem. And not saying I will not take care of this companies truck, I will. And look for the best fuel prices when possible.
What really needs to change is the HOS restrictions. It really sucks getting within 50 to 100 miles of my destination and having to stop for ten hours because its 3pm, I'm wide awake but my HOS is up in the next 30 minutes.
These carriers that typically do this, are the pop up companies that change DOT numbers every 6 months. Cameilion carriers as they are referred to. A carrier that FMCSA shuts down, then company pops up under a different name and Dot Number. Mainly from Jersey, California, Chicago area carriers
Chameleon Carriers are extremely dangerous. We recently did a video discussing this topic, feel free to check it out! ruclips.net/video/k04tu9NRds0/видео.html
ET out here burning every bridge that they cross😂😂😂,
The company I work for, if you run out of hours of service, would give you someone's else's login details to continue driving home. Of course, if you are willing to risk your CDL license. So far, I'm not aware that anybody got busted. I wish FMSCA would implement a portal for honest drivers to report this behavior.
Just that simple to add another driver to the log eh? That is so wrong and so dangerous!!
I want to say eld is good.
I'm 2nd generation trucker and my wife has cdl. I know what 3 shifts without stopping.
My dad had a stroke running 3 logs for 45 years and my uncle had issues too.
I eat sleep and run legal against my will.
I'm gonna live because of this however, so when I'm 65 I will be healthy and in my right mind.
Ronen, why not discuss the real problem, which is the hours of service. The main advantage as an independent owner operator or small company is our work ethic. The 'hos' rob us of that opportunity to put in that extra effort to get ahead. Changes that would allow more flexibility and nuance in the hours of service is what should be discussed
Help me understand why you can't get what u need to get done in 70hrs? I thought the main advantage of being independent was to gain the ability to work smarter not harder while making more $$.
@@JayS64 You cannot work around the clock, as in you cannot stop the clock, most of your 70 hours is wasted time not making money. You will call it cheating, but this is how we ran for many many years. You fudge the log book. But I am sure you will just call me a pill popping outlaw trucker breaking the law for fun and profit. So I will end it here.
if you need to work more than your 70 hours, then your business plan sucks !!! i'm an o/o with paper logs and i never mess with it.. man i go to sleep 😂
Exactly! That’s the only advantage compared to the big carriers. Just make it 14h service along with 14 hours driving time and get rid of the 34 hours reset.
@@TheDriller100 If I had an older truck where I could use paper logs, none of this would be an issue for me either, And I rarely ever worked a full 70. I would concentrate my freight to two to four days a week, and take two to four days off. Cannot do that with an ELD and make a decent profit.
It's drivers that are destroying the trucking industry ,half my driving years was before CDLs and drivers should know there limits but they do what they do then regulations take what a few did and screws it up for everyone
Unfortunately this is very true. Thank you for sharing.
Oh joy, solved my problem! Found a way for me to avoid my much needed rest.
A friend of mine worked for a company that used someone in the office as ghost driver for the name of a co driver when they wanted him to drive 1000 miles straight with out a 10 hour break. Larger companies get targeted more by the Dot because they have deeper pockets and where first to forced on Elog here in the United States.
Sounds like they had a whole system working to cheat the system!!!
Fmcsa better look into broker operations at least once in a while… we have DOT on our back all the time, but nobody cares what brokers are doing to this industry. Created an impression that they’re in the same boat 😆
Great comment, thanks for sharing!
There isn't enough $$ to risk my SAFETY /CDL/HAZMAT on the line
I can go get a new license next week in another name. Hazmat is a bit harder but why pull something that can blow up for an extra $100 bucks. Illegals can now get cdls no problem so you do you I will burn the extra hours
@@mike-sk2li just because its Hazmat doest mean its gonna blow up...and what the hell do illegals have to do with my comment or the vid...wtf are u talking about🤯
Exactly!!!
There's a company here in the U.S. that force the drivers to drive 19 hours and more. The name is LB Independent Corp. I quit cause that.
I think I've heard of them
Company doesn't force anything the driver wants to keep moving and goes along. A big difference
Snitch
Nobody force the drivers.Driverce want to drive more than they should.You might be preparing situation to court. You should explain how long you were driveng more than you should,and pay fine for that.
If someone force you on something,you should refuse that on first try to force you.
If you didn't, than you should pay fine
@@mike-sk2li exactly
I agree with all companies that using ghost drivers until FMCSA fix the rates that brokers keeps lowering. Brokers take up to 65% percent of the load. Can you talk about that also. 2 companies are making a ton of money on top of drivers. I see you are agree with this modern slavering system. Try to talk good about the system today won’t stop it from swallowing you up tomorrow for a little mistake you will make. 😂😂😂
I started driving in 😅1977, it😊s doe nothing but got worse. Brokers we're the probl😅em. I'm retired now and the last 😅11 years I drove log truck. And loved it. I😊 I've been at scales when a foreigner gets stopped, pretends he can't speak English and dot says get out of here. Not once but a dozen times. Wa, Nebraska, Iowa Illinois New York. I'm glad I'm retired now. My heart goes to you driver's that are still keeping America moving. Without trucks, America Stops!
I agree, truckers are at the heart of America! I hope you're enjoying your retirement!
We ought to just abolish logs altogether! Yeah, I’ll willingly log my time, but I want to drive as long as it’s safe for me and I have had sufficient sleep and exercise!
A buddy of mine who got me the job where I'm currently working at and leased onto, he left and started his own umbrella trucking Corp. Why I say umbrella? He's running three, possibly more, DOT numbers and running freight under ELD Rider. I at least heard him out since he offered me a job but when I had to take two drug tests for two separate companies, I caught on what they were gonna do to me and stayed where I'm currently at. Yeah I'm young and full of piss and vinegar, but considered a week after I backed out, one of their drivers fell asleep behind the wheel in Virginia and literally fell off the mountain and died on impact. And they use ELD Rider... It's adding up...
Was that. Over by fancy gap?
@@kevinkwiatkowski7197 yeah. It made the news.
@@HunterPBrown I know and have cautioned a few people in my casual social network about this exact issue. You will make money alright, but one little blink, and you in a casket the following week. So what's the point?
Glad you chose to stay where you're currently at. Your license and your LIFE is more important. Stay safe my friend!
Me as a driver want the law on hours to be followed, 70 hours is long enough
Nope.
@@bicyclenerd.9377What do you mean nope? You're willing to risk the lives of others, so you can make a few more $$$ by driving 18hrs a day?
@@wrbk19 Most of that 70 hours is wasted time, the clock does not stop, and you do not make money in the sleeper.
@@wrbk19 Oh BS. Many of us WORKED 18 hours a day safely. Spend 8 hours in the sleeper, sleeping. Go to shipper, spend more time resting in the sleeper, go drive, take a nap during rush hour parked in a truck stop or rest area, go drive some more. We were adults, we were able to manage our time and log book. We did not have to drive 80 mph every where we went. Folks like you, that cannot manage their own lives, always need to tell us folks that can, what we are doing wrong. Sorry, trucking is not a 9 - 5 desk job.
@wrbk small companies can ony do live loading/unloading so they spend 6 hours or more on each trip for that day waiting and thats on a good day. And good luck getting detention pay.
Salute sir. I am watching your video from Saudi Arabia. You are very good giving information for all drivers. Salute sir
Good video but the time from Toronto,Canada to Chicago,IL is an 8 hour drive at 64mph.Its 11 hours only if you are driving super slow at 47 mph.
This is why we need to change the laws most of the problems are with the shippers or receiving company.
Also a lot of owner operator drivers do this on their own, its not always dispatcher that force them to do that. FMCSA so far did nothing, they just started now, finally
So many loopholes for drivers to get away with this!
My good friend had major repairs to be made to his own truck, and took a job with Ivan out of Chicago... They did all of his logging for him in Russia or somewhere over there. He would wake up after taking his 3 hour nap and find he had driven 600 miles in that time. He made enough money to repair his truck and quit. They about killed him.
Ivan is from Bulgaria
Wow! Thanks for sharing!
Now I understand why my primary broker put me on as a driver for one load four years ago and still has me listed as a driver for the FMCSA Clearinghouse and has random drug tests on me even though I have my own authority.
They have probably been using me as a ghost driver for the last four years.
Report it
Wow. So the FMCSA doesn't seem to monitor or audit these companies to make sure they're following the law.
Wow... Thank you for sharing.
Eastern European dispatchers/drivers/mechanics all around shady practices coming out in the open lol
They're the main culprits
Another problem staying awake for twenty two hours. This is absolutely stupid that someone would consider doing ths. Getting sleep is important for the drivers safety and for the motoring public using the same roadways as big trucks.
A good or smart driver whould tell that dispatcher that all he did was free up the truck for more hours. I, the driver, on the other hand, am done for my day. 10-11 hour shift is plenty unless there's drugs involved.
Yeah after about 10 hours the white line fever starts to get to me pretty bad, I trip plan pretty well so I usually don't have to max out my clock very often
Psh, try 15 hour driving times.
So I guess Rockstar, Monster, Red Bull are drugs? Lol...😂
Most of the megas are exempt from eld mandate. Funny that the crackdown will rain on the smaller companies :))
So not fair that the smaller companies are getting punished first before the big ones!
@@NorthAmerican-Trucking-News it's unfair that law enforcement goes after small guy when big companies are given absolute card Blanche while they were the one who were pushing more restrictions on HOS rules.
@@NorthAmerican-Trucking-News u a rat. Stay in Canada with that BS
This is a huge issue with the Croatian companies out of Chicago. The logs are in Belgrade, so good luck US DOT.
Hi Ronan, unrelated question: What type of watch r u wearing. If you can, please let me know where to get it.
Good work Ill also be exposing actual companies doing things in expedite freight.
Thanks for watching!
Whatever it's about time, the little guy can make a break. Now we need a way to get around all these taxes like them too.
A 34 hour reset on the weekend would work great but we are in logistics right so that’s never the case you’re usually resetting your HOS during business days. Which affects your bottom line severely. That officer pulling you over can be on an extra 8 hour shift because he got mandated meaning he’s 16 hours on a shift with a badge and a gun and the ability to charge you for whatever he deems necessary. Think about a doctor 24 hours working or a nurse. People work 16 hour shifts everyday they may not want to on certain occasions but they have to. So if you have to put hours of service you can and should have 16 hours of drive time and a mandatory 8 hours of no driving with no 34 hour reset . These giants (Trucking companies)get to make up all the rules and regulations while putting a stranglehold on small businesses. They have a monopoly on the industry and that’s illegal. I think this is class warfare and could even viewed as racist and discriminatory because it effects mostly minorities. Even the def system and the whole electric truck transition is discriminatory because again I (we) can’t afford it so it takes us out of certain markets like California for not being carb compliant this should be illegal because they are discriminating. Next is going to be if you can’t afford the car you’re not allowed to enter my city or state imagine not being able to visit your parents or family because you’re not allowed unless you comply same principle. CRAZY Right! Taking away main st so wall street could turn you into a Modern Day slave for more corporate profits and corrupt political support for these corporations while being given insider trading tips leaving you just over broke with no say on what you can and can’t do to help your small business succeed and leaving them with all the money and power so you have nothing!
ROWLAND TRANSPORT WANTS YOU TO DRIVE ON PERSONAL CONVENIENCE FOR THE LOAD! I called and complained but the woman on the other end wanted to know who I was instead of knowing what company was doing this! Unbelievable
In the future report company and give your name, this way it is official
@kevinkwiatkowski7197 But why can't they just investigate without compromising the driver? Karens call the police everyday for bs but get to remain anonymous.
Wow... Thank you for sharing!
Ghost driver?? O so mean all of the small foreign companies mainly out of the Chicago area - got it
And when the first driver get extremely Tired. Starts getting sheepy. Truck ends up in a Ditch and upside down 👇. ((QQ))
Stay away from these companies, simple as that!
Hello! I have a completely different view of that situation.Maybe, instead of blaming some tricky eld companys in manipulation, we should look about idea itself of those HOS? Absolutely not serving any safety and I , as a working OTR driver, just fuming how stupid those FMCA rules are.Loading , unloading, weather , breakdowns and other millions every day things that intervene in real life of truck drivers making those HOS rule not making any good for the sake of safety on the road. I don't understand how any dispatcher may force me to go for load whatever this load is if I am dad tired , I m going to refuse this load,period. If company will try to press me, by the way knowing that they force to do illegal thing, I am just going to leave that company right away.I am a adult person and responsible for my mind and body and if I want really sleep am going to be sleep whatever any dispatcher going to tell me....Most ridicuolus part of all those rules that fmcsa trying to fit those 11/14/10 structure in real life! There are not enough parking, that's another story,so, if 60 or 90 minutes before my clock up, i am actually not so driving but getting off at every truck stops and trying to find parkig,so, how "smart" those burocrats fmcsa enacting HOS rules before making sure that at least first what they should do provide enough parking spaces not only on the midwest but also on east coast. I can't make any extra stops to take nap because I m going to lose my precious shift hours. How it make me safer driver? How those people can't understand that simple idea that all people are different and so their bodys are. Somebody need more hours to sleep, somebody less..... Why, I am adult responsible person can't make a decision about more convinient time when to drive and when to call it for the day? another issue is a weather, particularly in winter time. Let's imagine, you slept for 6.5 or 7 hours and you feel great, rejuvenaited and ready to hit the roads, and, after checking the weather you just learned that snow storm is approaching area where you are now, so, common sense tells that you shoulddrive away from this area as soon as possible,right? but you actually can't because you have to wait when those 10 hours will expire on logbook ,so, where is the safety and common sense here? Another example, very often, 10 hours rest break expirw on time when your body still sleeping, let's say, 2 a.m. So, my shift starts and I have to drive but I still sleep in my mind and body.How that's situation makes me more safe driver? I can go on and on and on with multiple examples how those rules will interfere with REAL LIFI AND BIOLOGICAL HOURS OF REALTRUCK DRIVERS. Why are people who gor a power to make a decision don;t understand such a simple concept? At the end I can conclude that probably it was idea to defend company drivers from abuse from dispatchers and managers but in reality, it become very burocratic and unflexible rules wich only makes things worse. Drivers now have to speed more because they know if they not making in their HOS hours , they going to be late for appointments and they speeding and speeding. I see so many lunatick truck drivers when they speeding in really dangerous road conditions. I think, it;s just my humble opinion, that HOS rules should be NOT MANDATORY BUT RATHER SERVE AS AN ADVISORY . If truck driver discuss working conditions with recruiter it should serve as a guideline for him, just that, but it should NOT BE MANDATORY!! After all, this is a free country.... just unbelivable how people who was born here don't get up an arm against it.......
We are working on putting a video discussing HOS rule!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write your thoughts and share this with us. Stay tuned for the video!
I just got fired for refusing to do ghost logs
I know for a fact a company in Amarillo TX that did this n not sure how they getting away with editing driver's logs
Do you hire fresh grads? Im struggling to get in. Everyone asks for 3 months experience. I live in SoCal 92562. I don’t mind OTR
I have a list of them and once I left they will give false reviews to a new employer I try to apply...im going through it now. ..
Sorry to hear your going through this... Wishing you all the best.
If they want to pursue the case, since it is federal crime, they can do something because the owner of Lion Eight is US person living in Serbia.
27 years on the road,
been there, done that
This guy is correct in explaining how companies cheat they're logs, but he is wrong saying that only small companies do that, I worked for a large company 350+ trucks and they were editing the logs, now I work for a small company, only 6 units and we run legal, no ghost drivers
That's really good to know. We might create a follow up video to this one as we have learned a lot from you guys in the comments!
Yepper!!! Their not the only ones
00:00 Ghost drivers are fake drivers used by smaller trucking companies to bypass regulations.
- Dispatchers often edit the driver's logs on the ELD system to cover up hours of service violations.
-This is a serious violation of regulations and can lead to drivers leaving their companies.
01:20 Educational videos on flatbeds available on the channel.
- How to strap loads.
- How to secure coils.
-How to use Conestoga flatbeds.
02:37 Truck drivers manipulate logs to cover up ghost drivers
-The edited logs are checked in the ELD system by auditors
-There should be a detailed folder for the reason behind any edited log
-A safety manager signature is required for every edit made to a driver's log
-Manipulating logs makes it easy to pull up a ghost driver
04:04 ELD Rider software allowed ghost drivers to be added, extending driving time.
-Driver contacted company in Serbia to add ghost co-driver.
-Adding ghost driver requires only full name and driver's license.
-Video reviewed by Freightway's shows alert sent to engine control module when representative logs driver off to edit logs
05:31 Trucking companies are manipulating electronic logging devices (ELDs) to gain a competitive edge.
-Some drivers are referred to as 'ghost drivers' and can turn off their ELDs.
-Smaller trucking companies are getting away with this, which is unfair to larger companies and needs to be cracked down upon.
06:53 Truck drivers should not risk violating regulations for a few more hours of work.
-Violating regulations can lead to legal consequences and serious accidents.
-FMCSA needs to do a better job of regulating ELD systems and ensuring they come from North American companies
08:13 FMCSA needs to remove all ELD devices that do not meet Federal requirements from the registry
-ELD providers that do not meet Federal requirements are being banned from the registry
-FMCSA has removed five devices from the registry this year
-Too many ELD devices and back offices are not in North America
-Shady logging devices should not be allowed on the list
-People who create faulty software should be held accountable
09:40 Back doors in ELD devices pose a grave risk
-Companies from all over the world sell ELD devices with back doors, which are used to manipulate driver logs
-We must control and regulate the companies that provide ELD services to prevent such incidents
Thank you for the re-cap!! Really appreciate your comment!!
@@NorthAmerican-Trucking-News u a rat
I worked for lioneights front trucking company and assisted with alot of r&d for the eld rider devices. It's a shit show.
Back in the day, drivers would just keep two log books, one would always have available drive time.
I worked for a very shady company. The driver manager would insist on logging out of the tablet and continue driving to make schedules. Food distribution to stores. As with any tip snitch or complaint I've tried to do with the fmcsa. They want evidence, phone calls screenshots or something tangible. They won't even look it it without that. Last company I worked for, we used PC everyday. Not hour or two. Many 10 hour resets done on PC. Same thing. They ain't interested. An adult will expose all that but the 3+ years I worked there, never had one.
How come when you talk about the officer. You said he will look at this. And it showed you with a female officer?
1st the owner of wiener (werner) is the president of ata american trucker assoc. Who is currently pushing for speed limiters. Why to give megacarriers the edge. Personnaly I think logbooks should be kept by people getting paid by the hour. Drivers have the upper hand when enough is enough. In a sense logbooks limit how much you can earn. It's never about so called safety. Does anybody remember 8/10/15 rule? 8 hours rest, 10 hours drive 15 total to work the dock. Yea what I thought. Of course back in those days you could split the 8, if you got busted it was because you didn't do it right.
You get a snart DOT officer, and you don't have all the answers you will get busted. Plus the insurance risk, isn't worth it. Im a small carrier and I don't mess around.
It's simple just always say no. You will not over drive your daily hours.when it's time to take your 10 hour break you will do just that. And the company will have to reschedule loads drop or pick up. Because if you have an accident DOT is going after the driver who's holding the steering wheel he's not going after the person sitting in the office who told you to do such a stupid thing. companies and everyone thought it was good to change HOS and have ELD so now they must live with the daily out come.🤬😡🤬😡
I can't believe that DOT officers cant build a case based on average speeds and distance travelled. If a ghost driver is used, there has to be some record of how he/she travelled to the rendezvous point and from the drop off point. I know there's probably some fourth and fifth amendment limitations, but the system as it is, is a joke.
I personally think that there should be no hours of service restrictions, but all operations should be logged and statistical analysis on the fleet should flag unsafe behaviors during regular audits. Maybe even have the stats published publicly so that everyone can see who runs their drivers hard.
I agree with the no HOS idea. Put a box on me, record everything, analyze it for safety. I promise I won't do anything stupid.

FMCSA knows about this and they are not doing anything about it
how do they invoice/pay the hours without it showing or do they get their hours trimmed to compensate for a normal looking weekly total? If so then where is the financial incentive beyond blackmail?
They use 1099 n cover it up
I’m an o/o/carrier. I would never, in a million years, mess with my ELD. My registration # and USDOT/FMCSA # are my lifeline. I though drive time could never be edited on an ELD? I have hear of drivers from other companies run (before Canada mandate) 3-4 log books and recently talked with one that said if he had hours left in his cycle, dispatch were ‘giving’ the hours to other drivers. Crazy.
I had my log changed because I had moved my truck thinking I had my 10 reset done. It turns out I moved at 9:56 out of 10 so I called logs and he edited my log I still had to sit another hour and half but it saved me from doing another 10 hour break 20 minutes from my home. Theirs a place for it but advancing a load under a ghost driver will prob ruin your company.
@@whyme15able interesting. My Canadian ELD company (I drive both countries) said they could never change a drive status. I have two times stated my day (on duty, not driving) on the minute after 8/10 hour reset, both times they could fix it because I had not moved to drive and hit 5 miles/h or 8km/h.
A simple magnetic can mess up the system.

I think it is funny that you say the big companies wouldn't do this when they are the reason it is law afford to pay off members of Congress
You are for the big companies it seem, speak about how small companies are doing this because it's hard to make a decent living and they're trying to keep their families feed
I love ❤️ my ghost 👻 driver
Ghost 👻 driver is AUTONOMOUS trucking 😂they have been doing before these new companies started
Canadian and American companies/ppl dont do that? Why only Serbia? Every company that got "rich" did some stuff... ;)
The main problem is in reality they're hurting everyone the risking everyone's life and also doing this increasing capacity which drive down rates .you guys don't want to admit it but the ELD is the best thing ever happen and the reason I say that decrease capacity and drove up rates everything's is about supply and demand and all these guys who want to run like they used to all they'd be doing is running for class and not making nearest as much money
Snitches just snitches🤦♂️🤦♂️
K&B does this
i pass my az licence looking for job
Garage drivers held up in traffic and shippers speak of that yhinky it's a office job let them come drive the trucks themselves. 😊
alot of dirty kompanyz & all driverz juzt accept IT .
ELDs are not good and not safe. Those things force me to drive tired a lot of times. I know its bad but im glad companies did this. I worked for a company who did this and if i was tired i could stop and get a nap them keep driving and make my deliveries on time. Big companies have enough money to lobby and try to pass rules to get the small guys out of business
Creating 2 driver Id for logging..
Well we should get paid like airplane pilots then not realizing miles is money in the trucking industry everything is going up but a drivers pay
Well since u feel small carriers shouldn't have edge u must also believe large shouldn't either u make small carriers seem bad fmcsa should not let large carriers be self insured letting them bypass safety compliance that large don't
LOL you sound too familiar with how it works
If you ever rode outlaw. You understand why a ghost driver makes no sense to begin with. If you are going to break the rules. 😂 you will be fined/sentenced to the max regardless. So why waste the extra effort to fake being legal. 😂if you gonne run with the coyotes, then you better just roll ya pants up, tie ya hair, toss the shirt, toss the shoes. And run like the devil chasin you 😂ghost driver. Yeah, at the point of thinking of or seeing a ghost river 😂that means it's time to PARK that rig big dog. 😂 ghost drivers. 😂if you ever earned your outlaw badge, you know that not even a ghost could keep up with a real outlaw 😂.... don't shoot the messenger, okay
Do you think a small company has 3000 trucks?
Come on man, you know better.
That’s right agreed
Do away with all rules made after 1970 let drivers make a decent profit. To many rules.
Most of these crashes are new rookie drivers that are driving legal that can’t drive!!
We all know who that company was 😅
Who was it
@@SerbKing1389 anyone driving knows the ego a company has to push owner ops right now 😅 lease purchase. He mentioned the country 🧐
@Rick Boucher I know, but there's atleast like 10 Big Serbian companies in Chicago with many more smaller ones
