After UPS purchased Overnite, UPS started really pouring on safety measures.

It didn't take long to learn one of the reasons UPS was keeping safety at the forefront of everyday activities.
Is if any employee messes up & has a crash,or an injury it is always the employees fault.
They were well informed on how to be safe,so their error caused the negative action.
