2019 Roadcheck is next week, June 4 – 6, and we sat down
with Jeff Swan, a risk advisor with HNI who retired from the Wisconsin State
Patrol with over 30 years of experience. Jeff talks inspections, encouragement,
and unbelievable stories from his days patrolling.
Jeff has given his fair share of Level 1 inspections – he
spent 34 years in the Wisconsin State Patrol as a trooper, then a sergeant, and
finally an investigator with the motor carrier enforcement unit.
Hear how his experience doling out tickets set him up to
become a risk advisor with HNI. He’s changed from maintaining order through
tickets to preventing disorder as a risk advisor.
Jeff shares how to keep an inspection “boring” – just the
way it should be. Because the only one who may enjoy an “exciting” inspection
is the officer getting a break from an otherwise mundane shift!
After three decades in the state patrol, you know Jeff’s got
stories. He’s seen some pretty odd things. Jeff shares a few tales from the
road, one including a pretty exotic tail – it wasn’t a puppy tail, that’s for
sure!
