Those might be better options for you. Look at it this way; trucking is perhaps one of the sue-happiest industries out there. There are entire law firms that do nothing except sue trucking companies. Often, when a truck is involved in an accident, even if the truck driver is not at fault, the trucking company will get sued for millions, and very often have to offer a large settlement or risk losing in court. When drivers with a clean MVR and no tickets are a dime a dozen, would you take the risk of hiring you? No way in hell you’d get in one of my trucks.
