My experience so far.....................

I have had times where my DM would try and pplan me on a load only to have the system kick it back out saying that I can not make it on time, based on 50mph. Then when I would get closer to getting mt then the system would see that I could now get the same pplan. It is the same with MAC 30. The system will only offer loads to a driver that it see that they can make it on time. Also keep in mind that lately the planners really do not plan loads anymore. It is the computer, the Micro Map, and that goes by trucks in the area, their hours and their PTA's.

 

That's funny.

I've often received pplans that assumed I could drive 60 through any area to make the pick up and delivery.
In fact it is normal to get a load assignment with adjusted times that leaves me with 60 minutes to drive 60 miles, from the exact time of dispatch.
That lame program that gives a trip plan is just as bad, if not worse.

I'll accept a plan with certain times, then the 'computer' shorts me much of that time when it sends the actual load assignment.
Sometimes on both ends.

I don't know who programmed those computers but they should be strung up, tarred and feathered and fired.
Then brain wiped and sent to a place that begins with an unknown letter of the alphabet.
