Idiots. They knew what weather was coming and should never have been on the road. I feel the same when I see semis scattered all over the highway in the Ct hills when heavy snowfall is coming down.
Some of their bosses are not very sympathetic to them not getting the loads delivered on time. Drivers are at the bottom of the food chain, and some seem to be treated slightly better than slaves.
I’m sure at the end of the day their bosses would be happier with an upright and/or straight rig. At the end of the day the drivers are responsible for their rig and its load. Only they can decide what conditions are safe to drive in
Unfortunately, the company has to cover their rear in print, but the real world experience often differs. I remember calling my boss on a bad weather day, and he reluctantly agreed with my choice not togo out that day. His response was something like ok, but I am on the road with a new hire.
