Just thought I would give an update on my personal situation.
Like I said in previous post on Knight Transportation it took me a long time to finally get out!
I was considered for a position with UPS Freight a few years ago and was waiting for the call....Well I finally got the call so it got me out of the vortex of Knight Transportation.
Now I want you all to know how they have tried to screw me over since resigning.
They put (4) accidents on my DAC report! Never had a single accident in my entire driving career, not to mention never having one while at Knight.
Just another way for Knight to screw you over! That's what happens when you deal with a company run by religious freaks....i.e. (MORMONS)
It took alot of explaining and research on UPS's part. but I got the approval and was welcomed aboard with open arms. Wow! how good it feels to be appreciated again. I lost that feeling with Knight years ago.
To anyone even pondering the idea of pursuing employment with Knight Transportation, please send me an email at [email protected] before you decide. I will be glad to give you an honest evaluation of why you should reconsider.

Do you really expect people to believe that someone stole your user name and password and files a complaint that Knight messed up your DAC report? Do you think the world is stupid? You must be trying to smooth them over so you can get you job back.
People like you give the good truckers in the world a bad name. Do us all a favor and get a job in a warehouse and leave the highways to the professionals.

I just want to make something perfectly clear! I stand by my original letter of apology and want to know that after I wrote those derrogatory statements and then contacted by Brett Sant, he was nothing but professional in the way he handled my situation. He took the time to listen to any issues I had with the company. He also left me know the ones I was wrong about, but he also took full responsibility of and problems where Knight was wrong. Brett is a real standup guy, and Knight can be glad they have him on their team.
As far as the post "Taking back my apology", This was NOT written by me and it is totally false! Someone I know that didn't like me when I was the Safety Director is who I think got on here and posted that comment. He knew I eventually wanted to come back to Knight and this was his way of making sure it wouldn't happen.
So in closing, please read the "Letter of apology" and disregard the "Taking back my apology" that was not written by me.
I have contacted the administrators of the site to let them know what happened, but their policy is to NOT remove any information once it is posted.

I really thought I was wronged by being fired from Knight Transportation back in Augusr of 2009.
They put some really bad information on my DAC report because they wanted to make sure I never got a job in the trucking industry again.
I "ate crow" because I was literally forced to come on here and apologize to Brett Sant and the rest of the management of Knight Transportation to make them look good.
Well. I take it ALL BACK! You are crooks! You are not worthy of a good truck driver to go to work for.
All the promises you made me just to take back all the bad things I said.... Bullshit!
I stans on my origional statements.....Knight Transportation is a piece of s**t company! I wouldn't come back to work for them for a million bucks! And I truly mean that.
Kevin Knight, Brett Sant, Aaron Knight and the rest of you.....Eat s**t! and Die!

To Knight Transportation and Brett Sant, VP of Safety:
I deeply regret and apologize for the terrible things I have said about Knight Transportation. I felt wronged and decided to air my feelings in this public forum which was not only wrong but very unprofessional.
After being contacted by you Brett, I truly felt that you were very sincere in trying to fix the problems I was having. I want to thank you for continuing working with me to rectify this situation.
Again, I sincerely apologize for any derrogatory comments I made toward Knight Transportation in any way. I wish I could take it back but unfortunately I can't. All I can do is say I am sorry.
Sincerely,
Tony Hippensteel
