Ryder Dedicated Transportation Solutions Review

This companies truck driver narrowly missed over 16 Firemen, EMS and LEO personnel at a motor vehicle crash.
On October 24, 2019 at approximately 11:45 pm, our 4 lane divided highway was marked and had emergency lights operating, cones out, portable speed bumps out, making the speed thru this zone around 5 mph. With one lane open on the west bound, outside lane, of a 3 car head on collision. With no traffic in that lane at that moment, a driver for Dedicated Transportation Solutions came through the wreck scene, ran over our portable speed bumps, blew over cones with speeds greater than 55 mph missing these personnel and family members, some by as few as 4 feet. The scene was loaded with 16 Firemen, EMT's and 6 Sheriff Deputies, NC Highway Patrolmen and 1 nearby town Policeman. This total does not include the parents of the victims who responded in terror about their children, only to get a vision of what we deal with daily on our wreck scenes. Within 1 minute, 2 law enforcement officers went after the subject and caught him about 2 miles from the scene. When confronted, he stated that he thought it was a construction zone. His license said he was from Georgia. When asked, "Does Georgia have construction zones with blue and red lights?", he replied "I thought it was a zone". Clearly, this driver was distracted, sleepy and also operating a truck with a severe air leak as it was heard while he was stopped by LEO.
There could have been numerous deaths that night, because of this persons ignorance. Clearly the company needs to do some policing. Only by the grace of GOD, no doubt and give HIM credit, were we spared that night from death and injury.

This will be recorded in the national system, recording near miss line of duty accidents/deaths for fire/ems/rescue workers.
We did contact the safety manager of this company and he stated he was narrowing down the driver and they would take action on this incident.

We were in habersham county at 5:50 pm on the 16th of may 2019. We were pulling away from a stop sign onto 365 northbound when your employee decided to get within a foot of my vehicle with my infant son and wife on board. We drive a full size suburban so getting up to 65 mph was not the issue. The issue was your employee not having the decency to us his brakes as to not try and intimidate another motorists. I own my own company and I would fire this man immediately for fear of causing a serious injury on your dollar. I will not remove this review until I have been spoken to by the owner of DTS. By the way his DOT # is 1219712.

I recruiter called me ask me if I have my own truck & trailer I said yes then ask me if I have my own plates I said no cause leased to a company & he just hang up I have no problem getting plates why he have to do that well that shows me how profetional they are I wouldn't work with people like that no questions ask he just cut the conversation. Not good so drivers becarefull with this people.

Such great professionalism and quality service! DTS is highly recommended!!!

Would give 0 stars if I could! Had a driver pull out in front of us while we were on the highway. Nobody was behind us for miles but he had to pull out right in front of us causing us to slam on our brakes and almost went into the back of his trailer. He also flipped us off as we passed him. Not just flipped us off but held his arm out the window waiving his middle finger at us. Looks like from past reviews, their drivers are complete morons and should not be on the road. Smh.

DTS is everything I need in a carrier. Best service provided and their drivers care

The MOST horrible and unreliable trucking service around!!!! The really should rename the company Disgraceful, Trucking Service!!

I work for this company as a driver and I have to say I really appreciate every one and everything they do for their employees. As far as some of the reviews posted, first allow me to apologise for any behavior that was less than professional, and secondly ask that not everyone that drives for this, or any other carrier, be grouped together and judged as a whole for the actions of a few. Unfortunately people make less than sensible decisions at times. And the reality is it doesn't matter what vehicle is being operated for they all can bring about a tragic consequence if driven in an unsafe manner.

I have known the DTS team for over 15 years. The team is very "Professional" but more importantly "Personable". Driver Safety and providing a Great Service to their customers is their number one priority. I have worked along side of this team for years and know what they stand for.... "Quality"!

As a Sr Director of Logistics, I have worked with DTS for over 7 Years. Everyone from the Owner to the Drivers always acted as if they were part of our company and truly interested in our combined success. It is not often a provider will consistently bring you savings ideas for your business. Down to earth, service orientated and even more important high integrity. If you need Dedicated...you should be calling these guys to bid. DTS also has some unique capabilities to track your loads truly real time and even when individual freight is delivered to a customer. Your business will matter to them vs just being a number to the big boys like JB Hunt etc.....
