What company drivers are the best/worst?

What company vehicles do you see that you feel the safest driving around/ the ones you feel on edge when you see? Just curious.

I'm not sure what company it is, but the worst drivers have the black cat tails hanging from the mirrors.

I thought they were scrunchies

Pam guys drive with their eyes closed it seems like….

Swear to God. Every time I see one of their trucks up ahead it ruins my day. Definitely over exaggerating a bit there but what a pain in the fucking ass they are every fucking time.

In Canada, it's a tossup between Denali, RIG and New Way Trucking, now that Lightspeed no longer exists.

Worst is Western Express, Prime Inc, Amazon, FedEx. Ive had more encounters with these poorly trained dumbasses than any other.
Also, LTL drivers in construction zones. They all qualify for it because not a damned one of those idiots slow for the speed limits. Had a SAIA genius come flying around me in a 55 mph zone before a cz lane closure just for me to have to pass him again when we got to the other side. I cant stand these line haulers. Dangerous drivers.

FedEx doubles drivers seem to always drive like shit.
DepressedDragonBorn@reddit
You can count on FedEx to stay on that left lane forever. Put a timer on one once while he tried to pass the truck in front of me, and he stayed on that lane for almost twenty minutes, shit was funny.
Although honestly should have just let the guy pass and be over with him.

Freight or Ground?
CrashingTiger@reddit
yes.

Worst : OD, Estes, Saia, NFI, JB Hunt.
Best: Prime, Swift, UPS, TForce, Smith.
I'm mainly talking about highway driving. These are the worst that I usually see doing stupid stuff and also the best ones I see that are just chilling and cruising and not bothering anyone.
AroundGoesThe18@reddit
Prime as best is laughable. Ive avoided three of their drivers doing stupid shit in the last few months - sent the videos into their safety departments each time. Pulling out into travel lanes from a dead stop on the shoulder of i-80, running stop signs, damaging trailers at a warehouse and trying to flee...those guys are morons
KristaA3@reddit
You're list is kind of ridiculous but I do agree with Estes and jbcunt
Chillimaniac@reddit
Did you swap out your best and worst there?
nick_soccer10@reddit
Tforce is absolutely one of the worst…
Charlie_Hustler@reddit
Nope. The worst ones are the ones I usually see doing stupid stuff such as cutting others off, hogging the middle lane on 3 lane roads, and matching speeds with other trucks on 2 lane roads.
The megas aren't all that bad on the highways. Usually just see them cruising in the right lane just chilling. They aren't ever really doing anything wrong most times. I can't say much about them away from highway driving but I'm only really talking about how I see them on the highways. They are chill.
Chillimaniac@reddit
Interesting. Cus I agree with swift. I actually rarely see em doing fully stupid stuff. But then you got prime on there and I hate seeing one coming down the road. Your first 3 of the worst I don’t have a problem with but job hunt always in the way it feels. Interesting how we see em differently
Charlie_Hustler@reddit
Every once in a while I'll see a Prime doing something weird or stupid but for most other Primes I see on the road. Alot of them are just chilling in the right lane cruising doing 65 not really bothering anyone.

Any time I see a Wegmans driver, they're going the speed limit. 👍
TwoToadsKick@reddit
Everyone is the worst, but me. I'm the best.
CrashingTiger@reddit
I think for now, Western Express has taken the title from Swift for the absolute worst, but most of these chameleon carriers pulling Amazon trailers are terrible.
Scotts-@reddit
Best: Walmart, ABF, OD, Saia
Bad: half of the rest
Worst: the other half
Absolute bottom: Prime, Amazon, any intermodel
Majority of drivers have no sense of respect either for themselves or other drivers. Its this fuck you mentality and an ego that should be left at home everytime you get behind the wheel.
overpaidlazytrucker@reddit
Amazon and any white truck with no markings
AgapeAnus@reddit
Fedex, JB Hunt, Welfare Express, Prime. I've seen all of them do completely idiotic shit nobody should be doing.
As for best, I've yet to see a Crete or Walmart driver do anything dumb. I'm sure it's happened it just didn't happen in front of me.

Worst: Dot, Super Ego and Western Flyer
Best: Nussbaum, Roehl and Raider
cleanc3r3alkillr@reddit
Worst: Super Ego, I swear you have to have a super ego to drive like they do. Just jerks and bullies on the highway and in the truck stops. I’ve never seen one have patience of yield the right of way.
Best: I’m biased but probably Roehl. Always professional, never causing problems, you almost never even notice them and that’s a good sign.
TruckerBiscuit@reddit
Western Express are IMO the worst of the worst.
No outfit stands out as reliably good across all drivers. When I start to think an outfit is quality I encounter someone doing stupid shit.
