Stop DAC Reporting Abuse

[peetee1000]

You call this a "free country"? The very nature of this slanderess and illegal reporting of a driver should be totally banned. This is big bucks trucking companies in bed with this fucking government. What happened to our labor laws? If their going to make a report on a person than that said person should be the first to get it after termination of employment. The coward trucking co. wouldn't like that because drivers would be in their face right off the bat. This is destroying peoples' lives!

They are running under the name "Hire Rite" now...Probably the same tactic Miswestern Distribution out of Fort Scott, KS used decades ago...They lost their insurance so folded shop and moved across the line to Missouri...Introducing PRIME, INC. Different name, different company, SAME PLAYERS AND SAME ZERO DOWN TRUCKS THAT YOU WILL NEVER OWN.

dac reports aree a bunch of lies..they are invading our privacy kind of like our lousy government

[MRSTONE969]

As an aspiring truck driver...this info is the biggest strike i've heard so far against truck driving. It's actually unbelievable. Any trucking company, I don't care how reputable they are, has a big strike against it if they participate in this DAC shit!

[Sarasdad91]

I think people need to file a class action lawsuit against DAC and many trucking compnaies. I think they have a great case. Once they win, and they should, that should put an end to this bullshit forever.

Any driver who feels that they are a victim of these civil rights violations should contact the American Civil Liberties Union(ACLU).

[alltvisanimated]

@alltvisanimated Trucking companies should not be allowed to have sole discretion to determin the preventability of accidents. This violates the drivers individual Constitutional right to due proccess. Also, drivers should not be forced by employers or potential employer to confess or endorse any document containing allegations involving an alleged accident unless that driver has been fully convicted of such behavior.

[alltvisanimated]

NEVER SIGN ANY NEGATIVE STATEMENT OR CONFESS TO ANYTHING THAT YOUR EMPLOYER TELLS YOU THAT YOU MUST SIGN! EVEN IF YOU THINK THAT YOU MIGHT BE GUILTY! DENY EVERYTHING! YOU HAVE RIGHTS PROTECTED UNDER THE FIRST, FIFTH AND FOURTEEN AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION! THE CANNOT FORCE YOU TO CONFESS TO THEIR POINT OF VIEW! IF YOU SIGN IT THEN THEY CAN SAY THAT IT IS TRUE AND PUT IT ON YOUR DAC REPORT BECAUSE YOU CONFESSED!

[alltvisanimated]

IF THEY TELL YOU THAT YOU WILL BE FIRED IF YOU DO NOT SIGN, THEN WRITE IN THIS STATEMENT AND SIGN IT EXACTLY AS FOLLOWS: UNDER DURESS, INTIMIDATION AND COERSION SIGNED:xYOUR xNAME. DOING THIS VOIDS THE LEGALITY OF ANY CONTRACT AND THEY CANNOT USE IT AS EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU. ALSO MAKE SURE THAT YOU SIGN YOUR ANNUAL REVIEW THE SAME WAY BECAUSE AN ANNUAL REVIEW IS REALLY AN ANNUAL CONFESSION.

I got a company I worked with for a year and a half. They report it as two jobs only report the first two months (1 job) and last month (2 jobs) I worked there. I have check stubs, logbooks, and DOT inspections that prove I worked there 18 months.

They reported me as quit under dispatch, log violations, company policy violation, and in notes please call company.

I refused to work over 70 hr rule and have disputed report. I filed with FTC and nothing. DAC needs a class action

[truthabouttrucking]

Yes, there should be a Class Action.We're in the process of investigating the best road to take for this horrific problem

[NJKatwoman]

Thank you for making sure that I saw this, truthabouttrucking! I tried to sign the petition, but every time I click "submit", it goes to a white screen and that's it. I don't know if my signature ever got added. DAC and USIS, (now HireRight)

need to be sued out of business.

C.R.England i was leaseing a truck from them and i was out on the road for 6weeks and got home time and was home for 3day the 3day about 3:30am they came and got my truck with all my shit in it and wont give it back and they put abandonment on my DAC and that bull shit.

[truthabouttrucking]

This is exactly why we should all pull together and at least TRY to STOP DAC REPORTING ABUSE. Too many stories like yours ... too many drivers .... 2010 will be the year we push forward with this cause .... everyone's help is needed .... good luck to you - Allen

[bastian1926]

Dieselducy, I can relate to your comment. I used to be a trucker and back in 2003, I was fired from KAT inc, for refusing to run illegally for their IBP meat loads. Then when I did, they put penalty points against me which still would have gotten me fired. Makes no sense. This could be on my DAC, and it probably isn't fair.

[greenbeld]

the DAC report (many times) is "slander" plain and simple . employers can put anything they want on there . for the individual it is time consuming, and near impossible to correct your own. such a dis service to the many hard working people trying to exist in this troubled industry..

[truthabouttrucking]

Just one more way to keep the professional driver "under control" ....NUFF SAID!

[dieselducy]

THE DAC REPORT IS THE ULTIMATE FRAUD!!

[ZEROEVILDARKCOOL]

l FULLY SUPPORT YOUR CAUSE AND/OR STRUGGLE

[dieselducy]

Continued. Yes I took a few photos, BUT the REAL reason they got rid of me is because i would not run illegal like the rest of the "company sucks" that continue to work there. I try to run safe and legal and in turn get fired for a "company policy" violation. and it is on my dac. DAC REPORT ABUSE NEEDS TO STOP. if you do anything really bad, it will show up on your MVR report!!! All the DAC report is is a way to blackball drivers. I am signing the petition.

[truthabouttrucking]

Yes, it does need to stop, but it won't unless we get the 3.5 million drivers to come on board and help! Thank you for your comments!!!

Pass this video around to as many as possible and get them to sign the petition. If everyone passed this URL on to their mailing list something would be done.

Not just a few....but all drivers need to come together on this. Again, thanks for your comments.

[dieselducy]

The DAC report is the ULTIMATE "good ol' boy" network amongst the carriers! carriers can literally blackball a driver for no reason!!! look at Marten, one of the WORST truckload carriers ever! They put BS on my dac and after that it was hard for me to get a job. They put "dismissed, company policy violation" even though i NEVER violated a company policy.

[truthabouttrucking]

Yes, I know...pretty awful. That's why we need to pass this info around. A lot of people don't know about it.

[alirain44]

Even when you submit your side to 'dac' they don't always put it on there. So a person ends up being doubly screwed.

[truthabouttrucking]

Thank you for your comments and support. We need to get this info out there to the 3.5 million CDL drivers. Please pass this around. Please help us help drivers! There's power in numbers.

[radiomancb]

Great Job! Allen, you have hit the nail on the head! Let's STOP DAC FROM SCREWING DRIVERS OVER!

[gameover340]

now that 's just wrong

[truthabouttrucking]

Thanks for supporting this!
