Incident Date: 04-26-2023
Location: Chelmsford, MA, USA
The exit was backed up nearly 2 miles with traffic, as people entering and people exiting must merge into one lane. Your inpatient driver attempts to queue jump nearly the entire line of cars wanting to exit just so he can get ahead. While attempting to do so, the semi truck he was controlling came within shear inches of my left mirror, as he tries to squeeze in front of me. When he is unable to do so, the reckless driver falls in behind me and begins exhibiting signs of road rage; swerving to try and pass me or hit me while we are on a one lane exit that is elevated hundreds of feet above the ground. Lastly, he began tailgating me and trying to intimidate me while seemingly rummaging around the semi-truck’s cab for something. I WOULD NOT continue to employ this driver, as he is an eminent threat to public safety, and furthermore is a big liability to anyone who employs him.

This morning, about 7am this man blew through an active school zone doing about 40mph. He passed another semi actually doing the speed limit of 25mph. Then proceeded to get up to 70mph in a 55mph zone. This is reckless driving and due to this I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone concerned with safety because this man sure isn’t. I called the company number on this page to complain and spoke to a lady who was very nice. This evening, David Hensley called me and was extremely rude. Talking down to me and told me I was liar. Which I am not. He also acted like I got his number by nefarious means. He apparently doesn’t know how to use the internet. In conclusion, if you want an unsafe driver who doesn’t even understand the basics of the internet or busniess, David Hensley at C&D Trucking is for you. All other safety minded individuals look elsewhere.

The truck driver was following way too close to other vehicles and tailgating nearly every driver and was speeding above the flow of traffic. A single car could not even fit in front of how close he was tailgating others. We all know that is not enough room to safely stop if a brake check is done. I believe he had a co-driver present. I have video footage from my dash cams as well. This puts a bad rep on the rest of the cdl drivers and will create amniosity amongst the 4-wheelers.

The sight of semi-commercial trucks driving on the road is a common one, especially on highways and busy roads. These vehicles are a critical part of the economy, transporting goods and products to various destinations across the country. It is not uncommon to see dozens of these trucks on the road at any given time, especially during peak hours. While these trucks are essential for transporting goods, they can also be a source of concern for other road users. Their size and weight mean that they require more space to maneuver and stop, which can make it challenging for drivers to share the road with them safely. It is essential for all drivers to be aware of the presence of these vehicles on the road and to take the necessary precautions to drive safely around them. By sharing the road responsibly and safely, we can all help ensure that these vehicles can continue to do their job efficiently and without incident and most of the time professional truck drivers are responsible and safe and closely following all the road rules and regulations.
At the same time, there are also truck drivers who engage in reckless and unsafe driving practices, such as speeding, cutting drivers off, and driving aggressively. This kind of behavior can put other road users at risk and lead to accidents and injuries. It's important to report any unsafe driving behavior that you observe on the road to the relevant authorities. This can help ensure that unsafe drivers are held accountable for their actions and that they receive the necessary training and guidance to improve their driving practices. Ultimately, taking steps to promote safe driving practices on our highways and roads can help create a safer and more enjoyable driving experience for everyone. Dangerous truck drivers lead to fatal accidents and it is our mission to warn them about their recklessness, about how injured others could get, and make the drivers act more safely. Why Should You Report Dangerous Truck Drivers? The National Safety Council states that there are 2500-5000 fatal truck crashes per year, as well as around 100,000 injury crashes per year. There are many drivers that commit dangerous acts such as speeding, commiting dangerous turns, or appearing to be under the influence. There are 38.9 million registered trucks in the US (excluding government farm and government vehicles.) Many of these drivers could commit these acts and not have any sort of punishment, reporting them could get them off of the road or have other trained professionals teach them what they are allowed to do and what they are not allowed to do to make the road a safer environment allowing people to feel more comfortable driving near large trucks decreasing the persona that trucks cause accidents. The statistics on truck crashes and injuries highlights the importance of reporting unsafe truck drivers to authorities. By reporting these incidents, we can help prevent accidents and injuries caused by reckless truck drivers. It also ensures that these drivers are held accountable for their actions and receive proper training on how to drive safely on the roads. Reporting unsafe truck drivers can help create a safer environment for all road users and help reduce the perception that trucks are dangerous vehicles. It is important to take action to promote road safety and prevent accidents caused by unsafe driving behavior.
Reporting dangerous truck drivers is important for several reasons:
- Promoting safety: Dangerous truck drivers can pose a significant risk to other drivers on the road, as well as to pedestrians and cyclists. By reporting unsafe driving, you can help promote safety and prevent accidents.
- Preventing future incidents: Reporting dangerous truck drivers can help prevent future incidents. By alerting authorities to dangerous behavior, they can take action to investigate the driver and potentially prevent future incidents.
- Holding drivers accountable: Reporting dangerous truck drivers can help hold them accountable for their actions. Drivers who engage in reckless or unsafe behavior should not be allowed to continue driving without consequences.
- Protecting yourself: Reporting dangerous truck drivers can also help protect you and other drivers on the road. If you encounter a dangerous driver, it's important to report them to ensure that they are held accountable for their actions and to prevent them from causing harm in the future. Overall, reporting dangerous truck drivers is an important step in promoting safety on the roads and ensuring that drivers are held accountable for their actions.
