Keeping Drivers Safe During Civil Unrest:

Thank goodness that the riots and protests around the country are starting to diminish, however, we are working diligently to pass along to you any information and recommendations that we can to help keep you safe in these difficult times. 

• Please remember that “Avoidance is the key”.  Our shippers and consignees should be able to give us information on the civil unrest in their neighborhoods.  Therefore, we will not send you into any area that we feel is unsafe; if you do encounter any masses of people blocking the roadways, STOP, don’t drive any farther.  Do whatever is necessary to change direction and get out of the area.  If you are alert, you should be able to see these masses of people far enough in advance that you can act before being surrounded.

• If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to your Fleet Manager, Night Operations or Ken Cromwell, Chief Operating Officer, at 515-576-4141 Ext. 7141.
