Interesting, we don't get many ME folks through ours. Lots of the Russians/Eastern Europeans though. Our primary consolidator is in Chicagoland and they hire the cheapest carriers then can get to run the loads down.
I had this Russian trucker for one of the big companies get his truck so jambed up in our back lot I had to move it with a BIG forklift.
This is after I told him to get out of the truck. I could not undo what he did. I no longer have a cdl but I used to drive them on occasion, not as an occupation though.
There are two ways to get in to our property. The right way is easy as pie, turn left or right depending which way you were traveling on the highway, then a left turn at the first stop light you see MAYBE 1/8 mile after the first turn. Thats our street and we're on the right about 1/2 a mile up. There also multiple big ass signs that say "GO THAT WAY DUMBASS".
But there is also a back way in, and for some reason a lot of GPS like to take people in that way. It's longer, more twisty, and at the end you have to make a right turn that's basically looks like |\. It's next to impossible to do it in a big rig, we've got guys working here that wont do it in their pickups. We used to get at least four jackasses a week ignoring our directions and signs and going in the back way and trying to make that turn. Which, since the turn direction also takes them uphill, results in instant stuck in ditch and blocking road. And a state trooper that is a might tired of getting this call writing the biggest tickets he can think of. And a big tow bill. For awhile the wrecker company actually had a sign up IN THE TREES so the stuck truckers could see it from their cab when they got stuck

That's whittled down to 2-3 a month, mainly because the two carriers that did it most often finally got their act together after five years or so. It was always fun when their dispatch called to bitch about the monkey fornicated spot to put a DC, to which we kindly pointed out the signs telling their drivers exactly which way to go, plus our automated phone directions if they call the line.
Then of course, there are the nekkid truck drivers.
