BRITISH COLUMBIA

eDITOR’S nOTE: Well, we have survived another tourist season and once more we want to talk about road safety.

As fall turns into winter, the weather conditions play an important role in our approach to driving. We all need to be aware of the conditions presented by ice, snow, overall road conditions and most importantly, the unpredictable actions of other drivers around us. Just a reminder, there is only one person you can trust and that is you.

Next, we would like to emphasize the importance of the pre-trip inspection. In winter, inspection is even more crucial. We know it will take more time in the cold, but as you know, anything that is weak will break. It’s human nature to want to rush to get out of the cold; however the opposite should be the case. By discovering a weakness, you may prevent an on-the-road breakdown, which will put you ahead of the game and your competitors. Take your time and do your pre-trip inspection correctly.

We, at Driver’s Choice, would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated readers and hope you enjoy the many changes we have made in our publication to assist you in locating the perfect employment fit. We also want to extend our best wishes of the season to all. We hope 2013 treated you well and that 2014 is one of your best years.

Do you want a job with an established and respected company where you are treated like family with the utmost respect, honesty and support? Somewhere you can have a career and not just a job? Well, welcome to Marnor Group of Companies. My name is Darla Macey and I’m one of the recruiters with this exceptional group of transport companies. Marnor Group of Companies is comprised of Marnor Holdings Ltd., Road Rider Transport and Rite Way Freight Systems – which have been in successful operation for 33, 31, and 27 years respectively. Although each company is its own fully self-sufficient entity, the companies operate in Darla Macey tandem with their sister companies. This is a brilliant partnership of resources that allows us to be everything and anything our customers need every time, any time, and provides us with additional source pools for loads to ensure our owner/operators are as busy as they want to be and making good money for their time and efforts. To your advantage – and our customers’ - our connections and options are inexhaustible.

We provide freight transport service for truckload, less-than-truckload (LTL), oversize and specialized shipments throughout North America. We work hard for our reputation of reliability, competitive pricing, integrity, and exceeding expectations. This reputation has led to success and growth for Marnor Holdings Ltd., yet we remain committed to servicing each of our customers, as if our only - and our employees as family. This sets us apart from other freight transport companies and brokers which focus more on the bottom line and less on their own people and customers.

We are a forward-thinking employer that is always on the look-out for talented people – behind the wheel and inside our organization. If you are looking for work that will enrich your life with a supportive, respectful company that treats their staff like family, then our family of companies might be right for you. We consider ourselves lucky to have some of the best people in the industry and are happy to see they are happy enough to stay on year after year – many until retirement.

If you would like to discuss the opportunities available within Marnor Group of Companies, we invite you to call our recruitment department at 1-800-488-2985 ext 4 or drop us an e-mail at info@mhltransport.com.

Good Day. I would like to introduce myself. I’m Daryl Luzny the Western Canadian Recruiter for the TransX Group of Companies. I’m based out of the Road King in Calgary, my area of responsibility includes Alberta, Saskatchewan and South Eastern British Columbia. I have been involved in the transportation industry for the past 33 years. Prior to joining TransX, I was employed with Intercity Truck Lines, and Reimer Express after which, I joined the TransX Group in Alberta. This history gives me a unique understanding of the trucking industry.

TransX is a transportation industry leader, based out of Daryl Luzny Winnipeg. We offer our customers truck load and LTL services across Canada, hauling dry van and reefer freight. We have a terminal network across Canada from Montreal to Vancouver with additional locations in some U.S. cities. We pride ourselves on our industry leading standards.

Time for Hours of Service As a Public Safety Investigator for Alberta Transportation, I recently took the opportunity to participate in a commercial vehicle compliance check. It is customary to invite local and other provincial enforcement agencies who are involved in traffic safety to attend these checks. This gives everyone in attendance the opportunity to learn from each other, specifically how one person’s job duties can complement another’s. My particular task for this compliance check was to inspect daily logs.

The first logbook I checked belonged to a driver operating under the Canadian federal hours of service regulations. His logbook showed him on duty all day, with the exception of eight hours off duty from midnight to 8:00 a.m. When I asked how he managed to put on 400 km, while not showing any driving time, he said, “I was just operating locally...you know...within 160. I recorded when I started....at 8:00 a.m. ...and I’ll draw another line when I’m done for the day.”

His statement reveals a common misconception. Drivers operating under the federal Commercial Vehicle Drivers Hours of Service Regulation are granted an exemption from certain log reporting requirements of the regulation, such as completing the graph portion of a daily log, when operating within a 160 km radius of their home terminal. However, under this legislation, drivers must still record their time in each duty status, their elected cycle, the hour at which each duty status begins and ends, and the total number of hours spent in each status even if they do not complete the graph portion of a daily log.

In contrast, this driver’s logbook might have been acceptable if he was operating under the provincial Drivers’ Hours of Service Regulation within a 160 km radius. It does not require the same level of detail as the federal regulation does. It is important to understand how a regulation applies to you and your job. Both pieces of legislation were designed to prevent fatigue-related collisions. In Alberta, your employer has a legal responsibility to ensure you are properly trained in many areas, one of which is compliance to hours of service regulations. Ideally, your employer should have evaluated your knowledge prior to your first dispatch. If the evaluation showed you did not understand all of the requirements, then your employer should have provided further training for you. If you still have questions after your training, and people often do, you should ask your employer. If your employer is unsure of the answers, you can ask a representative of the government ministry responsible for the regulation under which you are operating your vehicle. For us, it is all about safety.

Integrity DRIVING SCHOOL

Winter driving tips Winter is here and it brings with it many challenges for professional truck drivers. No Matter what the weather conditions are, you the driver has the ultimate responsibility for the safe operation of your vehicle. Driving in winter demands a specific set of skills for all drivers.

When driving in winter weather conditions make sure you prepare yourself for the trip. Always carry roadside emergency kit, reflective vest, extra food and water extra pair of snow boots and warm clothing washer fluid, matches, fuel conditioner, fuel filters, methyl hydrate small propane blow torch, long tow chain and most importantly carry tire chains.

Make sure you know how to chain up before you go on a trip can save you from being stranded on side of the highway in a snowstorm trying to figure out how to put them on. Making good decisions and knowing when conditions are not safe, and when it’s time to get off the road is very important. Driving in bad weather, especially in snow and on ice, is risky due, poor visibility, poor traction and the increased unpredictability of other drivers on the road.

If you’re a new driver or a veteran and you require some training on how to chain up, or you want to better prepare yourself by taking a defensive driving training course, or any other training, contact us so we can empower you with the knowledge to ensure you are safe on the roads. Think professional, act professional and professional you will be.

Stay Safe this winter. Happy Holidays form all of us at Integrity Driving School
