Just read a horrible story on Surrey Leader.com. They ran an article about a a truckdrivingschools called South West Driving Academy Ltd. The article states that the owner has just been sentenced to serve 15 months under house arrest for supplying letters to students that were fake. The letters helped the students to qualify to drive large trucks in B.C.
We wrote an article not to long ago that discussed why is so important to choose and decide carefully when picking truck driving schools. This just made me realize we needed to revisit that article often for the new comers to the trucking industry. Here is a link to that old article: truckdrivingschoolsblog truckdrivingschools
Here is a quote from the authorities mentioned in this article “A forensic test of several letters supposedly from authorities in the
Punjab showed that many were printed on a type of paper that is only
sold in North America, and many from different states had identical
logos and signatures.
As well, authorities in one
Punjab city also confirmed to the B.C. investigators that six of the
letters purporting to be from their office were all fakes.”
This is was a serious issue. The complete article written by Dan Ferguson of the Surrey North Delta Leader can be found at http://www.bclocalnews.com/surrey_area/surreyleader/breaking_news/48192277.html
