Rob Rosenthal:

Do trucking companies sometimes push their drivers to unsafe limits for hours or miles? Let's ask Utah lawyer Kevin Swanson for this AskTheLawyers™ Quick Question.

Kevin Swenson:

Trucking companies push drivers as hard as they can. They want more miles; they want them faster; they want more deliveries. So they push them extremely hard. We've had cases where a driver will say, “I didn't think I could make it that quick.” And the company will say, “Get there and find a new job.” So they are pushed hard. It's a tough job, and that makes it a lot tougher for them.
