We uncover the report showing the driver logged too many hours and how it went undetected until now. Some are calling him a holiday pea row. A pizza salesman in the midwest stands up and makes national headlines. We are tracking a storm system. Well let you know what that means for the chances of any holiday shower. Theyre on the road with you every day, the silver trucks belongsing to sysco foods hauling their goods to a restaurant near you. But tonight, the Worlds Largest food distributor is under scrutiny again. We originally broke the story about them storing foods in outdoor sheds. Our Investigative Reporter joins us. As we know, sisco is a 43 billion company. We have learned from former drivers and internal documents that sisco has been pushing some of its truck drovers to the brink as they log too many hours behind the wheel. I am reporting an accident. I got in an accident. Where on the bridge. Reporter youre listening to a sisco big rig driver calling 911 after he slammed into this stalled cash. Oh, my god, i really smashed it. Okay. So are you hurt . Yeah, im bleeding on my head. Reporter the crash looked so bad First Responders thought the worst. That had fatal written all over it. Reporter but the driver survived. Hes smashed into the back of the car. I remember, i guess you could say i remember hitting. I dont remember anything after that point. Reporter he says he woke up in the passenger seat. He says he suffered a torn acl and herniated disk in his back. I thought he was going to change lanes like all the other vehicles. But as he started getting closer and closer and the speed wasnt dropping, thats when i thought it was going to go into the bay. Reporter hes a former sisco big rig driver who asked us to disguise his face and voice because he still drives trucks in the bay area. He says this crash is an example of the potential dangers sisco trucks pose on the road. While the report crites driver inattention, it doesnt state whether the driver was fatigued. But this insider says the system is full of problems. He came forward after seeing our report exposing the companys hidden practice of storing raw meat and produce in unrefrigerated sheds. Cutting corners. Trying to get over on the system. Reporter he says sisco also tried to cut corners by maxing out drivers hours, pushing them to the limit and as we found out, over it. Its against the law. Reporter federal law says drivers can only work one 16 hour day a woke, but the Investigative Unit has discovered a trove of truck logs showing hundreds of violations of that law that have gone undetected. From april to october, records show dozens of drivers logged multiple 16 hour days in a week. It was the worst in august. That was the first month the company had to operate without its food sheds, shutting down those convenient pit stops led to more deliveries for drivers. In august, drivers had 98 big day violations, meaning 98 times where a driver logged more than 1 ho 16 hours a week. Those are not caught at terminal level. Reporter but those inspections are done once every two years . That is correct. Reporter the last inspection was more than a year ago. If theyre over hours it could create a hazard and concern to everybody out there. Reporter Paul Mcintyre says in between those inspections officers have to rely on Highway Patrol and surprise checks like this one to check driver hours. Good morning. Doing a paperwork check, let he get your drivers license and logbook. Reporter sisco has not been cited once in the past two years for driving over hours. According to the department of transportation. Sisco declined to be interviewed for this story but says federal safety data shows they have an exemplary record. It says the carriers not doing a good job of training that driver or their company. Thats a very serious issue we are concerned with as a department, making sure these drivers are not in excess of hours. Reporter now weve got gas spilled out there on the freeway. Weve got dot en route. Records show he was not driving over hours at the time of the crash. But he had logged six big day violations in the previous five months. Well see if they investigate that because its unsafe for everybody on the road. Reporter the chp says it is now investigating sisco San Francisco after learning of the violations we uncovered. In addition to chp, sisco remains under investigation by state and federal regulators. The company says it is extremely focused on safety. And siscos statement as well as our reports are on our website. How often does chp catch these violations to know this is happening . Reporter we uncovered quite a few. And we asked chp just that question. They say since january they have issued 85 citations for this violation. None of them have been for sisco. Hmm. Okay. Startling information. Thank you, vickie. If you have a tip for vickie or any one else, please give us a call or send us an email directly to the unit. It is up in the air whether those giant balloons will fly tomorrow during the parade. Forecasts show 15 to 22mileperhour winds with gusts as high as 40 miles. Balloons have been grounded before, once due to weather back in 1971. Organizers will make the call tomorrow. Even without the balloons, the parade will air at nbc bay area at 9 00. But theyve got the float, the acts, the singers. Theyve got al roker. And we have jeff ranieri. Even better.

Well get some partly cloudy skies in here and temperatures in the mid60s. Otherwise in San Francisco right now we have 56 degrees and breezy conditions. Maybe at 9 00 tomorrow, that 5a57 will be just perfect to watch the macys day parade. Temperatures in the 30s with winds that could gust as high as 30 miles per hour. Well be watching that closely. Okay. The thing that did push any kind of storm activity away is this area of High Pressure sitting right across the west. Over the next 24 hours, it looks to block any kind of storm activity. So this area of low pressure that we have been tracking will continue to move off towards the south. And it looks like at this point most of the rainfall will continue to head off towards the south and also offshore. So lets go ahead and get a look at that thanksgiving forecast. Heres what you can expect. The highest chance of maybe some showers and drizzle at the immediate coastline. The bottom line on this, only about a 40 chance for rainfall through the bay area as we head through thanksgiving. Lets get the forecast. Well start out with the cloud cover for the morning hours. Then by the afternoon, rays of Sunshine Building in. Morgan hill at 67. For the peninsula, temperatures in the 60s. 62 across the marina and the embarcadero at 64. And for the east bay and tri valley, you can see well have partly cloudy skies in santa rosa with 65. And the tri valley will have some of the warmest temperatures with potentially 67 in livermore. Now we do know we have that scrolling seven day at the bottom of your screen. We want to reenforce that pattern over the next three days. Friday, saturday, and sunday, in the south bay, not only sunnier, but warmer. By sunday, temperatures in the upper 60s. Youll also find across the peninsula, it will cool off a little bit on saturday. Well go back up through sunday. It definitely looks like sunday is going to be the best day for us, even in San Francisco, temperatures approaches 70 degrees by sunday. We could even have low 70s by sunday in the north bay and also for the trivalley. Temperatures right about 70 degrees. All in all, a pretty sweet forecast coming our way. And you can see in that is hen day, youre going to want to enjoy their friday, saturday and sunday, because by next wednesday and thursday, or next wednesday rather, we have some much cooler weather coming our way and maybe even a chance of shower. Did you say 70 degrees thanksgiving weekend . Wow. You like that, right . Youre like vanna white on that. Mr. Coming up how a pizza store manager became a holiday hero.
