This is how their drivers' drive. Ride your bumper so all you see is a grill and head lights, and then pass you when you were doing the speed limit!!!! There is no reason for a truck and trailer to go more than the posted speed limit of 55 mph. Yes I called the safety line, I really hope they did something because this driver continued to drive to close to the wide load car the came up after speeding passed me.

Answered all questions I had. Was treated not like an employee but as a family member. Everyone I have encountered has been very nice and helpful. It's been a great 2 weeks at this point for me and I'm looking forward to many yrs with Fab

Never worked for them but watched one of their trucks run a stop sign getting off the bypass. Then rode peoples tails and luckily I was able to move when he got behind me because he had time to slow down for a yellow light but ran the red light seconds after it turned. Very dangerous.

This morning on 355 around 3:45 am on my way too work, one of your drivers was tailing gating me in the center lane, I was doing the speed limit 60mph. When the lanes opened more near army trail ,the driver went around me and went into my lane with no signal. Then the driver slowed down. Then I move out of the center lane too avoid these games this driver was doing. Trailer # 6656 last part of trailer plate 723. The driver has issues.
