As I was on the phone with my husband on 8/21/20 @ 1:40pm, he is telling me how a truck driver was tailgating him, as my husband is in a 4 door Ford Focus, which is no match of a large truck. This was on W/B 114 from TMS through NWISD area. The guy was driving recklessly, & doing speeds of 88 in a 70, 80 in a 60, 70 in a 60 and 65 in a 45mph area. Also making VERY UNSAFE lane changes. My husband was fearing for his safety & of all the other cars that this careless driver was putting in jeopardy. I called the company & the man answered in Spanish. I asked if someone spoke English, he said no. I said that I want to report of a driver who is driving VERY, VERY UNSAFE. Oh, then all of a sudden, I got his attention & he understood every word I said. I gave the truck #69 as the one who is putting so many peoples lives at risk. My husband was going to also call the Troopers to report this driver. Originally, I was not intending to write a review about this, because the person I spoke with said he will take the driver off the road & thanked me for calling. But, after seeing the reviews about the careless drivers, I felt compelled to write this review. I am going to see if reporting to TXDOT and/or USDOT will get someone's attention & put this company and drivers on notice.

10/2/19 6:45 AM South out of Decatur on 287 truck number 81 doing 80+ mph and riding left lane continuously. Troopers need to patrol this area. These rock haulers are getting out of control. Getting rock somewhere fast is just not that important. Definitely not worth someone getting hurt over.

At 10 AM 10/9/19 on 380 W. 10 miles outside of Denton truck number 88 ran a red light and left me coming into an intersection with a solid red light. I slammed on brakes and was able to stop. However, I stopped out in the intersection and it was lawbreaking and very scary. He never hit brakes if there was a caution light and it appears he just ran right through the red. I was in a midsize SUV and the truck totally blocked my view in the inside lane. No, I was not following too closely. Not only should he have stopped with a caution but then his brake lights would have been a signal to me. The speed limit in that area is 60 mph. I don’t think he was speeding, but me going 60 to 0 with one second notice deems that person a careless driver!! As well as changing lanes without signals. I had the unfortunate experience of being in the same traffic for a number of miles and observed and was effected by their disregard and even lawless behavior. If I could I would give zero stars. It only gets one to be able to post. There could potentially have been a horrible accident in that intersection!
