Teamsters upset about United Road Services and Accurate Auto Carrier

Here is a quote from Teamsters for a Democratic Union:

In Detroit, United Road Service has been spotted hauling Fords. Reportedly Accurate Auto Carrier will get a piece of that action, also. Other nonunion rigs have been seen at a few other locations.

I think they are beginning to realize that this strike has weakened their position. They will work hard to make sure they keep all of PTS work in the union.

United Road Services is a corporate carhauling venture
