More free publicity for FedEx.

Pretty sad, the past two months I've seen more of these videos than ever before. Hopefully the driver was ok.

WTF?! Free publicity? I think snow and ice affects other truckers, as well. If your car skidded out on black ice should you be ridiculed for seeking attention?

Are you a cloistered nun or something? We consistently point-out FedEx fails here. Get a clue.

Keep up the good work, Fred loves you! Just don't get in an accident on I-95, US1, or Rte 114 up there in Peabody/Danvers, because it will be your fault, no matter what.

On another matter, here's a small idea of what FedEx feels about safety. Got to my truck yesterday, during Code 40, found a turn signal lamp out. Brought it to the mechanics attention. He came back and said he didn't have one, they won't let him keep any in stock! Bulbs for a W700, which we have about 30 of here. Manager wanted me to go on road with the truck anyways. I refused. Manager finally relented and gave me a spare sprinter. All about safety, but can't keep a single bulb on location.

I'm not surprised.

As bbsam once said, this company is dangerously cheap!
