    Dangers of road rage and technology

    A woman in Florida was being tailgated by an aggressive driver in a pick up, so she decided to take out her cell to get the incident on video.   When the road rager decided to pass her he gave her the bird and then lost control of his vehicle then crashed into a ditch taking out a light pole in the process.  Talk about instant gratification, but the woman filming the whole incident could have just as easily been the one who lost control and crashed.  Remember that two wrongs do not make a right.

    As professional drivers, we see road rage directed at us and other drivers frequently.  We need to remember that we are professional drivers, and should act accordingly.  Neither the driver in the video below is a professional driver, and it shows.  If another driver is tailgating you or has harsh words for your mother its better to ignore them than to get back at them.  Do not pull out your phone and start making a YouTube video while driving.  The risks of causing an accident do not out weigh the benefits of getting 4 million views on YouTube in one day.  Remember the bigger picture and please drive safe.

    North Dakota Oil Field Truck Drivers

    This is a great piece from the New York Times chronicling the life of a female truck driver in the oil fields of North Dakota. What a hard life for her? The things we do to make it in America today.
    Thank god for the trucking and oil industries. They are replacing the manufacturing economy that we used to know. The difficulty of the work is comparable. At least we still have the opportunity to hustle and break our backs for a decent living.

    Let Your Next Driver Find You

    Let Your Next Driver Find You

    Safety as a Service is proud to announce a new feature that is being offered through your existing subscription.
    Our sister companies and websites have done a great job of creating a database of CDL Drivers; the database has grown to 5000 drivers and seems to be increasing in leaps and bounds everyday.
    This growing database and the number of carriers looking for drivers made us wonder: How could we help both sets of our customers?

    Our Decision
    1. Get all of the drivers that we know to fill out a Driver Profile.
    2. Get all of the carriers that we know to send us a Job Profile when they are looking for drivers.
    The response from drivers has been overwhelming.

    Here is what you need to do:
    1. Send us a Job Profile and we will cross examine your requirements against the Driver Profile.
    2. We will send the driver an email with your details when we find a match.
    3. We will then let the driver know if you are interested by filling out an employment application on SafetyasaService.com.
    4. The driver's full application will be delivered to your SafetyasaService.com portal.
    5. The two of you meet and decide on the outcome from there.
    The Cost
    Two pre-approved, scrutinized applications per month are included in your subscription. We will charge a fee for each application after the first two.

    The Disclaimer
    We will do our best to present applications that meet your qualifications. You will still need to use your vetting skills, as you would with any driver; however, we think this service will help you cut through the junk applications that you receive from the newspaper or Craigslist.

    Imagine the Possibilities.
    You will only receive applications from a driver that:
    1. Knows how much you pay.
    2. Meets the basic requirements.
    3. Came looking for you.
    The only thing left to do is to contact the driver, do your background check, and close the deal.
    Contact us for more information. Your SafetyasaService.com portal will have more information for you.
    We hope the service proves beneficial to both parties. I sent this email to our customers. Unsubscribe below if our offers do not interest you (I hate junk mail too.)
