Fresh Direct truck out of control — Brooklynian

Fresh Direct truck out of control

edited November -1 in Prospect Heights
Yesterday on Eastern Parkway and Underhill I saw a Fresh Direct truck somehow switch out of gear and go maybe 20 feet or so down Eastern Parkway sans driver. It side swiped one parked car and came to rest on the back of another. Did anyone else see it?

    A good argument could be made that it is safer for all of us when these trucks do not have drivers.

    Do you know if they put a note on the cars that were damaged. I know I would be pissed if someone hit my car without leaving me a note.

    Thank goodness you were not in that truck's way Isa :)

    hmmmmmm. whats worse, fresh direct delivery men who are convicted felons or delivery men who do not understand the use of a parking brake and smash cars.

    Last year in midtown I chased down a fresh direct truck who was driving with his back doors open, normally I would have just followed and waited for goodies to fall out the back but I was on a date and wanted her to think I had some morals and stuff.

    screw the morals :p. she probably think you were street smart and a nice provider if you waited for the stuff to fall out ;).

    good lord, what the hell does this mean!?!?!?!?

    I think it's probably established that I think a lot of the posters on this board complain about 900% more than any normal human should, but good crap, are you suggesting that convicted felons are in-line with the mentally absent? Do you think that they can't or shouldnt hold DRIVING jobs???

    That is correct, and for the record I keep my complaints to a minimum.

    Yeah, he didn't drive away. One of the car owners was there when it happened and she seemed to take it well. The other I don't know, I just stuck around long enough to see the look on the driver's face when he came out of the building to find his truck moved all Christine like. Comedy gold.

    God, I hate Fresh Direct. One evening I walked out of my apartment and there was a FD truck delivering to one of my neighbors. As soon as it pulled away, a diffeent truck came around the corner and stopped to make a delivery 5 doors down from the first! So, it's not only some of the drivers who are incompitant.

    FreshDirect truck damges my Jeep while making a 3 maybe 4 point turn on my street. The rubber part of the bumper on the rear corner of the truck hit my rear hatch so hard that it left a huge ding. My Jeep is 2 month old, by the time I heard the car alarm and got out of the apartment he left. Asshole just left.

    But he comes every Thursday morning so I cam wait, I live here.

    Can you guess what I am doing now, Police Report...
