“A U.P.S. contractor?!” Unless there is inside information that U.P.S. and it’s shipments via Swift are directly involved in the probe, and subsequent raid it is somewhat odd to refer to Swift as a U.P.S. contractor. Swift is a long haul company employing over 21,000 drivers, with multiple “contracts” including Fed-Ex.Swift hauls considerably more tonnage throughout any given fiscal quarter than U.P.S. sees in two. How do you justify this description, other than opinion-leading? This is like saying ” Wal-Mart, a McDonalds customer…”

It says right in the linked news item “Swift Transportation dispatches more than 500 trucks per day, transporting mainly for the United Parcel Service.”
