Whistleblower says pressures on Amazon drivers to make fast deliveries create dangerous conditions

Amazon says it’s investigating, but a whistleblower says pressures on drivers to make fast deliveries create dangerous conditions. “My brother's life is just, now, a cross on the side of the road that people pass,” said Aliesha Harman. The morning of June 11, Hearn clocked in at an Amazon facility in Forney and left with a truck full of packages to deliver. Like most Amazon drivers, he didn’t actually work for Amazon. His employer was a third-party delivery company called Triumph Logistics. “From the moment that my brother got on the road that day, there were red flags,” Harman said. Just after noon, Hearn was pulled over in Van, Texas, for reckless driving. It was the first of several times he would be pulled over that day. Hearn had gone days without his PTSD medicine and was having a mental episode. Since he appeared sober, he was sent on his way. STORY: https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/loc...
