I drove for Swift Trans from May 2010 to Oct 2010.I was out of the Atlanta Term.I got good miles during summer then freight fell off sharply in October which is normal they paid me poorly $0.28 cents per mile.I had to stay out a month and a half to make any desent money they almost never got me home on time.They have a good rider program only $30.00 per month my wife went with me.The truck they ishued me was a 2006 Volvo with 425,000 miles on it and was very nasty inside It took me the first 3 days I had it to clean it and i still could not get the carpet clean it was matted with nasty goo.My first DM was Falisha she is a developmental DM she was rude and never there for me when i had a problem like the volvo they gave me had an non working pre pass and I finaly after 3 weeks of paying out of pocket at tolls witch is very expensive in a 18 wheeler $160.00 in tolls in one day in the north east I called permits in phoenix my self which they said is the DM's resposibility.then 2 months later I got a reguler DM Sue Clips she was more help full but she to treated me like a little kid and yelled at me all the time.I always got very poor directions.none of this made me quit I finally desided to quit when they kept writing me up for over speeds first for going 64 MPH then they said I went 66 MPH for three hours straght the trucks are governed at 62 MPH and trust me thats all they got the only way to go faster is down hill but where in the USA can you find a down hill slop that is long enough to allow you to reach 66 MPh for 3 hours straght on the third right up for over speeds they fire you I would not give Swift the chance to fire me and trash my DAC so I turned in my truck and quit.The truth about Swift there A** holes they dont pay well they talk to you like your a teenager they dont respect there drivers they dont clean out there trucks most of there trucks are old Volvos they will run you to death the miles were good they are very nit picky and they will nit pick you to death dont ever drive for this company if you can avoid it Thanks for reading god bless truckers :)
