John Meadows’s Expertise I started driving in 1978 for Viking Freight System based in Santa Clara California. Around 1984, I transferred to Seattle WA. I became a driver trainer and remained one for almost 20 years. I trained them in all aspects of driving. From the physical skills of driving, and the rather disturbing amount of paperwork we had. I also trained them on the DOT regulations of Hazardous Material Handling. That included matching the material to the paperwork, how to load it, making sure the paperwork was correct, & how and when to placard. I also gave Haz Mat meetings on rule changes. Being a trainer, I was also on the Safety Committees. That covered everything from safety concerns to building and yard repair. I also attended many Truck Driving Championships as a contestant. I quit being a trainer around 2004 and became a full -ime driver. I was still the person the drivers came to for information, both on paperwork procedures to Hazardous Material matters, mostly about paperwork and placarding. This continues to this day. We had been sold years earlier to FedEx Corp. They started re-branding our equipment and change our name to FedEx Freight. In 2008, I won the "President's Team" award for 25 years of safe driving. I received my own tractor, and parking space for both my tractor and personal car and a good sized monetary award. Currently, I still drive and I'm the number 1 seniority driver at the terminal. My duties include, but are not limited to, loading route trailers, using forklifts and whatever tools are needed, matching deliveries to the paperwork, routing myself and being as efficient as possible at customer's facilities, making pickups of both regular freight and Haz Mat. and keeping myself and others around me safe. I also have some experience in dispatching.
