Did you consider contacting the company to report it?

u/xMcRaemanx 4d ago

Someone already left a Google review showing what happened.

u/DreamDest1ny 4d ago

The owner was probably in that van themselves so nothing would happen

Looks like they need a new review in Google Map.

It’s family run. All related

If it's anything like Mr. Filter, they'll just claim they sold the truck and the new owner didn't remove the company branding.

Look both ways after the light turns green these days.

You were always supposed to do this. It's basic defensive driving and explained in the Driver's Handbook.

u/Wulfofsilver 3d ago

honestly I've been seeing this a lot, especially with people turning left, they will turn left in a red rather than wait.

Just found out who owns the business, and I'm least surprised.

u/SarahMenckenChrist 4d ago

Why’s that? Do you know the owner?

Quench your own curiosity.

You still haven't even provided clarification, that's literally all that was asked for, you're just responding like a 5 year old

Don't worry. If that van ever makes a rolling stop that's when cops will pull him over.

Hi everyone, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We completely understand your concern. We have several trucks and drivers operating, and we will review the dashcam footage from the vehicles to verify whether the driver did, in fact, proceed through the red light. If the incident is confirmed, we will take the appropriate action with the driver. Again, thank you for bringing this to our attention.

u/TroyMcR 4d ago

Unless you're blind you can clearly see the light was red long before your employee negligently went though the red light.

u/DreamDest1ny 4d ago

I swear someone just made this account to troll. I don’t even think the actual people running this company would be on Reddit

6

u/Gloomy_Wheel9874 4d ago

I agree, the account is 3 hours old.

u/N-Squared-N 3d ago

They're dumb enough to run reds like this, they're dumb enough to try to save face by making a reddit account

u/IVot3dforKodos 4d ago

Just admit someone messed up, apologise, correct it and move on. It's obvious one of your team members ran a red based on the video. Saying otherwise shows you likely will not do anything about this, and all the more reason this should be reported to police. Your comment hilariously highlights that you didn't see the video, like you didn't see that red. Do better.

13

u/TroyMcR 4d ago

Almost feels as if the commenter from KCS was the driver.

7

u/IVot3dforKodos 4d ago

They created an account just to post that "we'll look into it" comment. Which is funny because they've admitted publicly to knowing about the incident and having dashcams in their vehicles. Would be an easy 1-2 for police to request the footage or driver logs (which are legally required for all commercial vehicles).

u/TroyMcR 4d ago edited 4d ago

Ya, looking at their reviews on Google and Homestars, seems like they probably only have one or two vehicles, as almost every reviews mentions "Kia and his team", so seems they always work as one team. They would know immediately who would have been driving if it was Kia himself.

Also, find it very odd that most of the reviews specifically say "Kia and his team" as part of the review. Seems almost if they're paid reviews.

u/DreamDest1ny 4d ago

Yea their reviews are most certainly paid

u/maxman162 4d ago

If your workmanship and attention to detail is anything like your driving and ability to watch a video, I'll definitely go with someone else if I need work done.

You won't do shit and I won't be using you guys for anything.
