Knight Transportation was founded in 1990 in Phoenix, Arizona, by four cousins; brothers Kevin and Keith Knight and their cousins, brothers Randy and Gary Knight. The company began by transporting general goods between Phoenix, Arizona, and Los Angeles, California. The company had less than 5 trucks and only one service station in Phoenix.
Today, Knight Transportation is one of the largest transportation companies in the US. The fleet includes more than 4,000 tractors, and 8,700 trailers, including dry, refrigerated, and brokerage, as well as 4,400 employees. The company is publicly traded on the NYSE under the ticker symbol: KNX.
In early 2017, Knight Transportation announced that it was acquiring their main competitor, Swift Transportation, in an all-stock transaction. Knight Transportation had more than $5.1 billion in annual revenue in 2016

I kind of doubt that knight corporate office could care less about any complaints or concerns on here because as I see knight they are really not focused on public safety or any kind of public relations, you know I presently drive for knight, this is my third time back, wth is wrong with me, this time back has been my worst experience ever
Maintenance on the trucks Is very poor, to get your truck fixed , you have to threaten to quit, there is little to no customer service support
Basically if your a driver with knight your probably more than likely driving a truck that is unsafe and a danger to you and the general public, knights equipment and a good majority of there drivers are a danger to the general public
If they took Breyer care of there drivers and there trucks it could be a good company
VERY UNSAFE AND VERY UNPROFESSIONAL COMPANY, no driver support, if you work for knight as a driver, you are on your own

I am a former knight driver and have still not received my last check or two. I still get emails about come back to knight for this or that. I cant even get paid so why would i come back. BBB will be called and this issue reported for your lakeland yard. Unacceptable.
Maria Brown says
