My Son just got terminated from CR England while in training he ran
off road his trainer even wanted the things CR England says they will do to work
for him so he could continue with their company this is the first company
that I have ever seen that does not hold the trainer partially
responsible for things that happen to trainees.


Post accident retraining. When C.R. England truck
drivers are involved in an accident, they receive additional training to
reduce future risk. Immediately after an accident, the driver is
dispatched to Salt Lake City for a competency assessment by the Safety
Retaining Manager including a full evaluation of the drivers risk
behaviors and hands-on training to correct poor performance. The
retraining process typically takes 24 hours to complete. On average, 25
drivers are terminated each month by not meeting suitable performance
standards set by the Safe Driving Department.

He was not gave this option after accident

Fatigue Management. Fatigue is the leading
contributor to critical crash accidents. The objective of our Fatigue
Management program is to prevent major accidents such as those caused by
failing to yield, leaving the highway, and inattention. From 12
midnight to 8 a.m., the Fatigue Manager monitors activity of hundreds of
trucks and identifies those who may not be fully alert. Our fatigue
policy, Drivers should not operate during 12 midnight and 6 a.m. unless
their load requires it is strictly enforced. The implementation of the
Fatigue Program has significantly reduced accidents during these risky
hours.

He drove all night every night while on truck

Red Flag Management. Our Red Flags system is
intended to identify risky truck drivers. Red flags are assigned to
drivers who leave the highway for an undetermined reason, receive moving
violations and/or call-in complaints, perform a rapid deceleration,
etc. Truck drivers who accumulate red flags receive progressive
discipline including additional training to correct the risky behavior.
If their behavior is not changed after training and discipline, Red
Flags are used to support disqualification and the dismissal of the
driver from the company.

He ran off road this did not happen

#2 General Comment

Hey Dad

AUTHOR: MartyMarsh - (United States of America)

 I wouldn't worry about CR England destroying his career because the whole united states knows what this company is about.When you have trainers that don't know a thing about trucks training then there is bound to be serious problems.The thing I didn't get was it sounded like you where trying to tell both sides,his and there's.I also didn't get why he ran off the road.But I can tell you after 39 years of driving any time a truck goes off the road it's the drivers fault,unless there is a pile of vehicles with him.I couldn't imagine anyone keeping him after that but that is not to say that someone else will not hire him.I would tell him to keep putting applications in with everyone,sooner or later someone will grab him.But just being new at trucking the dues are pretty heavy and if I had to do it over again I would blow my brains out first.

I wish you folks nothing but the best and God Bless.

Just to inform you. He was a trainer to a few of us after your son. We heard word he just got his trainer status removed because of all the crap he pulled. He was making his students stay up for 24+ hours then drive all night. Your son was not the only one treated the way he was. The trainer tried to blame your son.

A Trainer ????

AUTHOR: John - (U.S.A.)

Isn't it true that CRE will lease a truck to a 'newbie' and then allow that person to be a 'trainer' and collect extra money for doing so? Tell me I'm wrong here....please. This is absolutely crazy !!

Isn't a trainer supposed to be professionally trained in HOW to train drivers?? How does a newbie pull that off?? How can a trainer sleep in the cab while the student/assistant/helper drives an overnight shift? Isn't that a death wish??
