Borderline Blues

A commercial truck owned by the same company connected to a previous incident in Iowa where a pickup truck killed two people and injured another was found to have multiple safety violations during a recent inspection in Cass County, Iowa. The Cass County Sheriff's Office conducted a level 1 inspection on the truck, revealing 11 violations, including a defective brake, tire issues, and load securement problems. The truck was deemed unsafe to operate and was taken off the road. The company operating the truck, Schrier Companies, is the same one involved in the earlier Iowa incident. The previous incident involved a Ford F-150 pickup truck driven by an employee of Schrier Companies. That employee was allegedly intoxicated at the time of the collision with a golf cart carrying four people, resulting in two fatalities and one injury. The employee faces criminal charges related to the incident. The recent inspection and discovery of safety violations raise concerns about the company's overall safety practices and adherence to regulations for commercial vehicles. While authorities have not explicitly linked the violations to the previous fatal incident, they do highlight a potential pattern of negligence within the company's operations. The investigation is ongoing, and further scrutiny of Schrier Companies' fleet and safety protocols is expected. find the original article here: https://www.yahoo.com/news/truck-found-multiple-violations-near-185826479.html
