Inspection Blitz-0 Inspections
Please turn in logs with every trip
envelope. Legally you are required
submit your logs to us within 13 days,
but we ask that you turn in logs with
every envelope.
June 2nd-4th was DOT’s annual
Inspection Blitz. Because of the
great job our drivers are doing
getting clean inspections and
avoiding violations, our scores are
good and not one single truck of
ours was even inspected.
Annual Reviews/Safety Bonus
All Drivers need to stop and see
Greg to complete your annual
review and receive your safety
bonus (after July 1st). All company
drivers and O/O must have this
complete by August 1st. If you are a
driver that does not come through
Salina on a regular basis, you will
need to contact Greg or your
dispatcher to make arrangements to
complete your review.
We have been seeing a lot of this
lately. We think we may be seeing
it happen more now because it is
harder to tell if the trailers tires
aren’t turning in our new automatic
trucks. Please take a little extra time
and make sure the tires are turning.
