After driving Tractor/trailer for a number of years, I decided to buy my own. I signed a contract with a company under the following terms. They had the right to do an initial inspection of my tractor and annual inspections to follow. I had to display their decal, and no other company markings. I had a minimum amount of time the truck was to be able to move freight and could only move freight provided by them. I was required to provide non-trucking liability and my own physical damage and workers comp, but was able to buy it through a group they administered. They conducted DMV, drug tests etc. so on and so forth
This is standard owner-operator agreement. How is this not a scam but Ground is??
