Biggest Pet Peeve

 My biggest pet peeve is when you see a horrible driver in a company car.  It's the worst form of marketing.  Hello - wake up - you're turning away business by having a bad driver behind your company car.  All AZ drivers - beware of Terra Rosa Landscaping trucks.  They are horrible drivers!  THey swerve in and out of traffic w/ trailers, speed (and I'm usually going 10 over - so they're really speeding!), and will ride your ass when the left lane is completely open.  Please boycott this company and find someone else if your looking for landscapers!

Have you ever called the company?  Most companies take these types of calls very seriously - IF you are polite, serious and can provide essential details such as the place and time of the incident along with the truck's Unit number.  Most companies can find out immediately who is driving Truck "#121" but not who is driving the "ABC-123" license plate.

 I agree, you can always report the vehicle to the company... but word of mouth is very powerful.  Thanks for bringing this up.  I will certainly pass over this company who is not courteous to other drivers.  (Be sure to let the managers of the company know that)

I've tried to report these things to companies, but they want my life history or they won't even mention it to the driver.  They don't have to FIRE the driver based on my word, but couldn't they at least mention that someone didn't appreciate their driving?
