In the beginning when there was a issue with the trailer paperwork wonder how long that would have taken for the driver to resolve without the CEO at hand. Not sure it would have taken longer but I would bet it would. Would have been much more interesting had they matched him with a driver that was not as necktie friendly. Now that would be great!!

[@Layitdwn]

Knight Transportation I wonder how y'all gone treat me when I come in September

[@KnightTransportation1]

We look forward to seeing you in September. Are you currently in school?

[@shawnpa]

It's encouraging to see a CEO went this far to learn what drivers do and what it's like to live in a truck.

[@gdub454]

Nice to see a CEO of a trucking company get "out and about" and see what your typical driver deals with on a day in day out basis..kudos to Dave Jackson for doing this..

[@SaltyDawg-wu5kr]

BEING A PILOT I GIVE YOU DRIVERS A LOT OF CREDIT. FOR MAN HANDLING YOUR RIGS ACROSS OUR COUNTRY. AMERICA ROLLS ON BIG RIGS.I WISH ALL OF YOU SAFE TRIPS. MAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE A TAIL WIND AND BLUE SKIES. 👍🇺🇸

CNT 2C56 I thought that was a great quote also. I actually rewound the video to go back and hear it again. Very cool message in that quote.

[@TheReedPark]

I need to start lighting more candles. Cursing hasnt worked any.

[@jamespalmer4945]

It just baffles the mind all these management members reached their position in the company without ever being a driver. My god it’s a trucking company

[@KnightTransportation1]

Why does that baffle you?

[@jamespalmer4945]

Knight Transportation ! I guess Cuase that’s how it was done in the old days. Company’s would premote within its own. Meaning the driver would get the first opportunity at a Dispach job . Kinda like paying your dues so to say

[@loadedtrucker447]

Knight Transportation huh....no reply Knight??

[@michaeltemmen1223]

It should be baffle any trucking company that would put people that high up with no experience in the field to which they’re going to run/manage/operate.

[@andrewbencomo765]

That’s majorly of all transportation companies. They hire college grads who manage the bottom line, they don’t get payed to drive nor do they even want too. Ex military with logistic supply training get the management jobs. They don’t want a drivers mentality in management because they would advocate too much for the driver!

[@LAPGOCHINSTRUCTOR]

Why don't you laminate a copy of the trailer files so they won't get damaged

[@stevegrandy3426]

I have spent 24 years behind the wheel here in Canada ( Ontario ) and I must say that there is a divide between company and brokers and until that divide is removed and all are treated equally there won't be kindness .

[@SumguyinTX]

Good stuff, I have been a driver a dispatcher a regional dispatch manager and am now a terminal manger for an industrial gases company. The most important thing we as managers can do is connect with the drivers. They need to know we care about them and understand the sacrifices they make daily to provide for their families. I hope that this is still your corporate philosophy, keep those fine ladies and gentlemen rolling down the road safely.

[@nwscrew63]

Allan raises a valid point, even over here in Australia, how can we be veiwed as professionals drivers when we cannot even speak to one and other in a professional manner on the CB without the profaities and abuse.

Do truck drivers still use CB's the people I know who drive trucks use cell phones and head set now.

I got my own short range I have written off on tax which helps me out but F me some of the crap that goes on... R2 channel is filled with absolute children polluting the airways with absolute garbage.

[@69adrummer]

I love this little series you guys have done. I'd love to see some kid getting mouthy with this guy then be like...oh by the way, I'm the CEO....woah man, sorry bro! haha

[@trwhite1266]

I'm not a driver, but I've recently grown interested in the field (there's been drivers throughout my family, and I recently lost an uncle that drove his entire life OTR), and I really appreciate how the issue with the trailer registration wasn't glossed over. It wasn't ignored, and it took very little time to actually rectify. Very impressive.

[@johnbante5594]

A very poor attempt at company propaganda.....drivers should be paid by the hour!!!! PERIOD!

[@55fiddy5]

But you take soooo many breaks! Lol! Ha Ha!

[@jager6855]

Yep I'm a local driver now paid by the hour overtime after 40 hours. OTR verses local driver pay I was leaving $100 a day on the table and never home. Dave CEO talks the same rhetoric all trucking companies talk of OTR bonus. Never going back to OTR unless paid by the hour. Allen is the most professional driver I have ever seen. I worked for the airlines for 25 years most of the pilots where not as professional as Allen including me! Allen is a true inspiration to me on my last few working years driving truck.

[@a007x3]

Yeah work for JB hunt they pay 25 an hour 😂

[@ellenal]

I love what Allen said "you can curse the darkness or light a candle" - what a great philosophy!

[@KnightTransportation1]

Allen is incredibly wise. We are grateful to have him on our team. Thank you for watching

[@aday4161]

That's an old jewish proverb.

[@locsipocsi1]

Dave I'm 24 years old and was born 6 months before my father decided to become a truck driver. I grew up for the first 10 years not seeing my father for 1 or 2 months and seeing him for a day or 2 and then back again to 1 or 2 months.then when i was 10 my father became an Owner Op and then the finances become nicer but harder at the same time. the point of my speech is that i have missed a lot of time with my father and it is very hard now that I am older and i see the Dangers of the road I can only say one thing. I pray that every night my father stops at a truck stop and is able to sleep. I am glad that your trip was very nice with Allen but not everyday is so tame and nice.

[@MrPjcrews]

The next time Dave hits the road, it should be in the winter and for 30 days straight during the holidays and experience the mandatory shutdowns, 34 hour resets and low amount of hours available on the clock to continue running. Either way, like that the Big Cheese hit the road to kinda get an idea of what goes on. Loved that the original plans got scrapped. Something that happens all the time.

[@55fiddy5]

Then get off the road? Maybe?

[@ronbutcher9412]

After seeing two episodes of this series, I have a profound respect for long haul drivers.

Yeah. He is a incredible driver.

[@AndreaLeon1963]

Every week, should pick one the executives and get down to basis, like warehouse jobs, drivers, mechanic and janitorial...If you are not capable of doing these jobs, you shouldn't be CEO or Boss or Manager, because you don't understand your employees, and what the do for the company. Just that simple. Forgot to mention, that week of " aha moment" with the same pay and benefits. I re-assured you, companies will take a second look and will improve tremendously. Good Luck!!

[@Michael-gi3dk]

As a driver myself, I honestly enjoyed this video. What I believe stood out and I agree with is an attitude of professionalism

[@CCRider5312]

When I Trucked for years the going joke on the CB was: QUESTION: Where do you hide your money from a JB Hunt driver? ANSWER: Under a Bar Of Soap. 😂

[@glenwest4159]

What a great informative video. I'm looking forward to many more. Seems Dave Jackson has Alots of respect for his drivers and other employees. This is what a great company is all about. One thing I do find is alot of management of other companies doesn't know what some of the other employees do. I think before you get a Mangerment job you have to work your way up the ladder. You will have more respect for your employees.

[@chilidog1]

This was absolutely Fantabulous!!! Good on you Dave Jackson for getting out there with a driver and seeing a little of how it goes. To all the negative responders.... calm down. Dave didn't HAVE to do this, especially in his position, but he did, and that is the important part. How many out there can say they have had this pleasure? I think this was pretty awesome, and this here for me personally is the part of my reasons for wanting to join the Knight family. I'm truly hoping to make this a reality come April 2020 after I get everything in order with my current job, and at home. Kudos to you also Allen Reeder for being a pretty awesome Professional Truck Driver and Thank you for keeping America moving. Thanks to ALL Truckers out there for all you do. God Bless.

[@georgesmart239]

Add up what you made for the day and then divide it for an hourly rate. Most of the time you make the same or more working at WalMart and you go home every night. Pay for truck drivers should be no less than $20 hour. You have to really enjoy traveling and have the mental ability to stay away from home for long periods.

[@thrawn-ys9hf]

Damn working at walmart is the good life if they make more then me at .62/cpm which is $24.80 per hour on a 70 hr work week.

I've been a driver and a manager and I really appreciate your video. All companies should make as many employees as they can ride with the drivers day or night. It changes the drivers and managers forever. Thanks Knight.

[@KnightTransportation1]

We couldn't agree more! Have a great day Joe

[@jimsmith8628]

If my calculations are right, Million only drove about 300 miles each day for 2 days. Is that by choice, or is it that hard to get miles? I know that he said that he is semi retired, two weeks on two off. But those two on, wouldn't he want more miles. And, the unloading and loading in LA, was about three hours. That along with the 30 break cut into his 11 hours driving, by at least 30 minutes. Is this common?

[@the1streich339]

This driver is a weirdo.

[@sylliboiswag5349]

I only watched the first 10 minutes and could tell that that guy doesn't pre-trip his truck everyday lol. If he did it would have been a habit by now to turn the lights on right away so you don't have to go back in the truck and do it and if you did it every day your body would be so used to it that you wouldn't break a sweat even in Arizona

[@charterphotographer]

Loved the video, but I think I've never laughed so hard. first I heard the CEO, sounds like a nice guy, say as he's watching you face time with your grand kids, "isn't it nice that modern technology allow you to stay in touch with family while away from them on the road.", then the pro says "Yeah, it really is. " but what I heard in my mind was. "isn't it nice that when you're gone so much, you never see your kids, but at least you can face time with them." Then what made me laugh hysterically is when the CEO said something like. "Isn't it nice to be able to look out and see the wonderful country we life in, I mean, what a beautiful view!". and the pro driver said something like. "Yeah, it's very theaaputic when I think about my second divorce." as if to say, living on the road away from home will cause you to loose not one but two wives. sorry, I drove back in the day before we even had cell phones and GPS's, and I'm sure it cost me my first marriage. so I guess my mind put that all together... great video. really. *smile*

[@tomduguid8441]

Hi I know it's an old post , so unsure if you will even read this. But my question to the CEO would be, If you think that a CDL Driver is a Skilled Worker , then why not push to get the Legislation change to Skilled Worker Status ? I am a Truck Driver in the United Kingdom and we have the same problem here. Also it helps with getting Work in Other Countries . My eldest son lives in KC Kansas and i often think how cool it would be to go visit him for a few months and get a Temp Driving Job even driving Straight Truck . I can Drive anywhere in Europe With my License , Only USA i am not .

[@khaliifr3696]

Watched few KZbin videos from this company and as I’m working on getting my CDL, this made me interested in this company.

[@jparker12004]

This CEO still does not have a full understanding of what it means to drive over the road and be out away from home for a minimum of 4 weeks. He needs to get his CDL Class A and spend a month driving all over the USA. The average miles a OTR driver should be capable of doing is around 10,000 miles. I drove for Knight my first three years, then realized that there are other Trucking companies that pay more and have newer rigs. Example of this is Andrus out of St George UT.

[@neilhjelmeland1340]

Ok, so who is the guy at 23:23, named "Cheeseburger"? I know it's a big world but not too many people with that nickname. I was stationed in the Army in Germany around 1986 with a guy we called Cheesburger. Could he be the same person??

Why do you feel a CEO would need to drive a truck to understand how to run a company? The driver is very important but it takes a team of people to make sure stuff gets where it needs to be. Getting a cdl I don't think would be the best use of his time - trucker steve.
