Trucking Taxes: Records Show and Safety Rules

trucking taxes: The IRS and others who say the company owes them money have often found no assets available to garnish, according to CTV. The company and its driver insist they know nothing about how dozens of immigrants became packed inside the trailer of its 18-wheeler, which was found parked in the searing heat outside a San Antonio Walmart over the weekend. Pyle Transportation Inc. failed to pay federal employment and trucking taxes for years, faced lawsuits from Iowa labour regulators over unpaid wages owed to drivers and has been ordered to pay major penalties for violations of federal safety rules, records show. Ten of those passengers died and more than 15 others were hospitalized with extreme dehydration, with one passenger telling investigators people were taking turns breathing from a hole inside the trailer. I'm absolutely sorry it happened. Pyle Transportation owner Brian Pyle denied knowledge of any human smuggling and expressed shock and bewilderment over how so many people could have been crammed into a trailer that had his name on it.
