Not impressed with these drivers. One took a turn a little tight at the J in Waco the other day, and crushed the front end of a tractor. How in the hell can that driver not see that he needed more room? How can they not pay more attention than they do, considering the massive ball and chain they're swinging?

They don't care.
He was doing close to 20 mph as he nosed into the spot. Way too fast. He hit the truck so hard, that it moved by box 1 1/2" off diagonal and my box is welded to the frame at four points. Thank God we weren't inside.
He was in a rush to get closer to the building to take a shower. That shower is going to cost JB Hunt a pretty penny

Can you go after lost wages?

Yes. Just a bunch of hoops they make you jump through. I have my attorney in the loop already and hopefully it won't come to that. Being a 3 billion dollar company ( revenues), they are self insured. We'll see how this all pans out.

Of course. Losing his home. So rental car and motels.

Going to be a bit more than just hotels and a rental car. Loss Of Use plays into this as well. I have a great friend that deals with trucking LOU claims on a daily basis. He's guiding me along here.

I was wondering the same thing last week in Houston, when a flat bed T/T was coming around a line of parked trucks to go into the fuel isle and took off the front of the last truck in the line. A flat bed driver side hit at the fuel isle, definitely not paying attention :confused:

Probably focused on where he was going, not aware of his surroundings.

He'll have to get back to you.

He's removing all the Green M&Ms out of the bowl.
