[QUOTE="Exec32, post: 3868935, member: 56206"] Fedex is trying to have it both ways under the contractor model. They allow you to use their DOT authority but you are not directly regulated by the Dept of Transportation. You are not employed by X. This is a loophole that will leave you liable for wage violations when one of your employees decides to sue you. If you want to conform to the regulations you will have to get your own authority, or fedex will establish you are an employee. Interpretation of the regulation takes careful consideration of all regulations, not just the clauses that you assume to protect you. Drivers can sue you for overtime violations. Look at case law, you will be disappointed. Your simple understanding, or lack of, makes it clear why you are a ground contractor. Keep maki g those BOAT LOADS of cash...hahahaha [/QUOTE]
