[QUOTE="White Line, post: 1281468, member: 52233"] "Independent" ha ha ha you are a funny guy MrFedEx, I completely agree with you, look you are trucker and I am a trucker, and we both know that the only true independents are the guys that have their own truck and trailer, run their own authority (DOT#),broker their own loads, handle their own plates and IFTAs,do their own fuel taxes, and purchase any necessary permits among other things, now I don't know how the P&D contractors look at it, but from a linehaul point of view the contractor model is no more than a glorified lease on, I mean really that's all it is, it's our truck yes, but we run their chosen color 'white', their FedEx logos, we get our plates and IFTA through them (they also handle the fuel tax not us), and it's their freight so they are the broker, it's really no different than if you took your own truck to C.R. England, Swift, Werner, Greatwide or who ever else does lease ons, yeah the truck is yours, but if you run under their authority and fly their flag that's being a lease on not a independent, as far as the state knowing about the problem, I will have to follow up on that one, I can't say wether the driver explained the con gear issues to the NHP officer or not.
