    I did not, I just clicked back and it went back to the loads list. Reading that section 8, it does not appear that doing ELD share is a must.

    I also told every broker who tried pushing Project 44, that I don't agree with that and nobody bothered me anymore

    I ran a brokered load for TQL recently. They asked me to use Four Kites tracking app while under the load.

    After the 2nd text from TQL's tracking team, I deleted the app and just communicated the progress of the load via text.

    Why ask a carrier to use a tracking app while under their load and still call and text them for progress updates.

    I haven't gotten anything like that from Uber. They already have their app on your phone which tracks your exact location within a few feet, so what the heck do they need ELD access for? It's probably to track your location when you're not on an Uber load and they sell your location data to other brokerages to solicit you. That's BS. If they send it to me I'm out. I get enough spam calls already.
     
    alds Thanks this.
