TIFANNI’S TRENDS

- Near Collision: Near Collisions are currently trending up by 33%.


- Other Concern: Drivers should be driving with both hands and avoiding distractions while driving. This is trending up by a whopping 300%.


- Driving Distracted: We are trending down in this category by 69%.


- Other Violation: This will be the video a driver receives if they are stopping past the white intersection line. We are no longer trending in this category.


- Cell Handheld Observed: Handheld observed is trending up by 50% currently. This one is such an easy fix. Let’s see if we can knock it off the list all together.




Safety Tip - From one of our Junction City Drivers.... Make sure you do not put yourself into crush or pinch points between the dock, the trailer or another driver backing in or pulling out of a parking spot at the terminals. Make sure to make eye contact with your fellow drivers if you're going to be walking around their equipment so that they understand that you are on the ground. Always wear your high visibility vests inside active terminals.

Healthy Tip

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Some healthy and simple breakfast ideas for truck drivers include oatmeal, fresh fruit, protein bars, or a mixture of different breakfast foods. Some OTR drivers suggest eating a larger breakfast, and then smaller portions throughout the rest of the day to stay healthy while avoiding hunger.

Tina Freeman

Congratulations!

Bryan Hornsby had another great DOT inspection and received $500.00.


Open Insurance Enrollment

Open enrollment is March 1. We will be emailing information out to all of you on our new insurance policy. We will be looking at a 0 deductible to eliminate the need for a secondary under Colonial. This will be a better plan for everyone.

We are still going to be with our current insurance Broker, Tim Williams.





Please be AWARE:

When pulling a trailer off the dock door, make sure the last thing you do is check that the trailer door is shut and sealed.


Policy for Excessive Trailer Height: Go into linehaul and if no help there, then call your manager ASAP. Please get pictures of them.


Cold Weather - Make sure you have everything and all essentials needed for cold weather.
