Company Overview
Swift Transportation is the truckload half of Knight-Swift, based in Phoenix, and one of the largest truckload carriers in North America. The FMCSA lists Swift Transportation Company of Arizona LLC with 12,940 power units and 12,883 drivers on its August 2025 filing. It runs dry van, refrigerated, flatbed, dedicated and intermodal freight from terminals across the country, and it operates its own driver training academies, which is why it has always been one of the most-searched names among drivers who need a second chance. At that scale the safety numbers are large but the rates are ordinary: 22,361 inspections in the current window, drivers out of service 263 times, about 1.2 percent, vehicles 3,038 times, about 14 percent, and 794 recordable crashes over two years. Both out-of-service rates are below the national average. Swift is on this list from driver reports over several years. Because it is so large, the answer depends on the terminal, the division and the year, and it has moved back and forth. The questions to ask the recruiter are precise ones: does Swift currently hire drivers who have completed the SAP evaluation and passed the return-to-duty test, how much time since the violation do they require, and will they accept the follow-up testing plan from your SAP. Drivers on this directory can record what they were told, and two confirmations turn this listing into a confirmed one.
SAP Friendly — Driver-reported
Swift Transportation is on this list because drivers have been hired here after a Clearinghouse violation. Hiring policy moves with the freight and insurance markets, so confirm with the recruiter when you call.
