Swift, stop, swift, no.

Rule #1 concerning U turns in a truck: don't do it. Rule #2: If you do, ensure the road is 20' wider than your trailer.
NekkidSnek
As a trucker, fuck swift
thedarkcanuck
It's not the untrained drivers that gets me, its the companies willingness to mass produce so many drivers that aren't ready to hit the road

I'm so glad my rig only rolls in Canada so I never have to deal with these muppets

No trucks given.

I always wondered why the company I work for stopped using swift drivers... Now I know why
valiumkitty
Fucking gross. I lived in greeley CO. Big SWIFT plant there. They boil the blood on first Thursdays of the month. Smells like shit n pennies

Had to walk a swift driver through backing a trailer after watching him attempt it for a half hour.

#17 This driver had faith in his GPS for waaay longer than he should have.

SWIFT: Sure Wish I'd Finished Training. I teach that to every new driver I train, so they remember to be more careful around Swift trucks.
AHartMurmur
They advertise being swift, not being safe.
Drewpowers
Good point.
Tkeleth
But if they crash, that's a lot of additional time taken for delivery. lol
nirach
I.. Get some of these. Like, okay, kinda stupid, but understandable. How the fuck do you get to the middle of a field before you think oops?
ShdwRrw
Is this a common thing with only Swift drivers?
tippnasty
not only swift, but they are basically the university of phoenix of driving schools

How is it possible that one doesn't know exactly where their trailer tandems are? That's what the mirrors are for...

As the son of a former trucker, all the other truckers say that it stands for Slow Wagons In Fast Traffic.

Their overlord Taylor is unforgiving of delays

#17 and here we see a wild Swift truck in it's natural habitat
poronkusemania
Just wanted to get a closer look at the billboard.
misho
He's just heading for exit 310.

Is that company still in business? Oh, yes and look they're hiring: http://www.swifttrans.com/careers

Swift is the largest carrier in North America.
mithiwithi
Well, of course they are, they must have a high turnover rate. Also people keep leaving.
Freightshaker
90% and above turn over rates are not unusual in trucking.
pandarage1313
As,someone who,works in the industry they have a bad reputation for putting untrained drivers on the road
hearthstoneaccount3
On the bright side only a few more years until they can get rid of the drivers and migrate to autonomous trucks instead.
SquareHead27
All I can think of is Maximum Overdrive
Jessamthepuss
On the bright side is that AC/DC will be on the radio forever

There is a swift school in my town. "See What I Fucked Up Today" or "Sure Wish I Finished Training" get thrown around a lot.
Thorbane
I guess their training program is swift.
itinifni
Stop whining, I'm fucking trying!
Spidey209
That's what my teacher used to say about me. "He is trying. Very trying."

SWIFT: Sure we're insured for that
T4eTurtleC1ub
See what insurance fixes today is a good one.
LanieCakes
There used to be one in Lewiston, ID. Not sure if there's one there anymore. Swift drivers EVERYWHERE.
bradthegeek
Shit, watchout, I failed training.

OTR drivers don't need to dock up much

Having driven on nearly every single mile of I-10, can anyone tell me where #6 occurred?
JosephMcCovery
I have this feeling that it may be the TA in Slidell, LA.
DeafDesertRat
Having driven from Santa Monica to Jacksonville on the 10 several hundred times, that's in Slidell, LA.

I take it that SWIFT drivers are the retards of the trucking community.
Freightshaker
They're not looked upon favorably. There are other carriers that worry me more when they're next to me.

My wife sings: "I wish I was big like my Pa so I could drive for Willie Shaw, but I'm just a tiny runt so I have to drive for JB Hunt"

Old Dominion, Heartland (Heartless) Express, US (Useless) Express, 90% of the container drivers out there.
