I had a solid green light and an idiot turned left in front of me and I clipped him, second time and idiot didn’t yield coming off the freeway and cut across all the lanes, I was in the far left lane and he went directly in front of me and I rear ended him, he said it was my fault but the camera showed the true story. Both deemed non-preventable but if no cameras I think the second one would have been judged my fault due to no witnesses...the camera never lies.
As far as Fedex trying to fire senior drivers to hire and pay newbie drivers less, that’s some water cooler gossip if I’ve ever heard it lol...yeah let’s fire experienced drivers so the new guys can tear up all our new equipment to “save money”. I’ve worked at 3 different terminals in my career so far and have never seen or heard of anything like this going on.
All our “new drivers” have damaged more equipment in 1 year than all our senior drivers have in 20 years.
One new Driver is already on the fence to be fired because he has had too many accidents in less than 12 months. Deservedly so if he messes up again in the next year, he’s gone.
Lol some guys are paranoid is all I can say. I haven’t seen anything like that in my time at FedEx, ever. And I mean Fedex targeting drivers at top pay, it’s just not true. Show me some kind of proof it’s happening other than scuttlebut of he said she said. We have paranoid drivers at my terminal also and they are still working there, year after year after year...and they still think Fedex is out to get them. LOL is all I can say, lol.
