ya ya .... i will turn the microphone over to @turdferguson for further commentbbsam: You talk as if you're being victimized by the fleet safety record yet you are still with fleet coverage. So if it isn't bad enough to go some place else for coverage it's a nonissue.
I stay with them because they are competitively priced. How is that being a victim?bbsam: You talk as if you're being victimized by the fleet safety record yet you are still with fleet coverage. So if it isn't bad enough to go some place else for coverage it's a nonissue.
Do you understand that there are two different insurance policies being discussed?bbsam: You talk as if you're being victimized by the fleet safety record yet you are still with fleet coverage. So if it isn't bad enough to go some place else for coverage it's a nonissue.
I've found better truck coverage than Protective too. Saving a fair amount.I stay with them because they are competitively priced. How is that being a victim?
We moved to a different w/c provider because we got a much better rate. How is that being a victim?
Crying? No. Happy to be elsewhere.bbsam: Of course I know that you have two seperate insurers but you were the one crying about the fleet safety record but you continue to subscibe to the fleet insurance. So either stay with Protective and keep your mouth shut or go someplace else.
If not, maybe you should take your own advice and "keep your mouth shut".bbsam: Of course I know that you have two seperate insurers but you were the one crying about the fleet safety record but you continue to subscibe to the fleet insurance.

Seems your reading comprehension is lacking.You're just upset about the fact that you got caught in a direct contradiction, condemning those who had wrecks because of their potential negative impact but still staying with the same insurer even though the door is wide open for you to pursue better terms elsewhere.
Damn dude. Line haul as an atrocious record.That's good for bbsam. But how about Ivan and Boris, who have killed a couple of OTR drivers during the past few years, or anyone dba FedEx Ground who has a poor safety record? Is this how Fred culls the herd? Do these people have to sell-off and lose their butts, hoping someone new takes over?
I've been a home delivery driver for 3 yrs. I got pulled over by a state trooper for truck inspection. The truck had a cracked windshield - passenger side Got written up. Then I got chewed out by the P and D man (or whatever Ex calls them now), for lowering their FMCSA score. I told him to friend' ex I don't own the truck and the contractor knew about it. How much of this is for poorly maintained trucks? Inspection tickets, and just putting warm bodies that can get approved loose on the public. Disgraceful!
Actually I was pointing out that a lot of money can be saved by shopping around and in this case having a good safety record plays into it...something you seem loathe to acknowledge.bbsam: All you were seeking to do is to call attention to your safety record. Just another " hey, look at me". The cold hard fact is that as long as you remain in Protective fleet insurance plan all you can do or be expected to do is to try to achieve the best record possible. You can't do anything about what the others are doing.as well as the fact that the future of the fleet insurance program is in someone else's hands and if the outcome is an unfavorable one a lot of contractors both IC and ISP both single route and multi route will be left with only a handful of potentially very expensive options.
