[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 340602, member: 6408"] DOT clearly states that a driver will not be disciplined for refusing to drive unsafe equipment. BUT, the catch is...was it really unsafe or perceived (by him) to be unsafe? To me, [B]ANYTHING [/B]wrong with the brakes is unsafe. Did he go to the shop and have it dianosed? Did the shop refuse to fix it? That still does not mean the driver has to take this equip. There is a DOT 800 number I have to report management forcing or disciplining drivers for unsafe equipment. Will dig it up if some on here want it. [/QUOTE]
