    When I did orientation last week he said that they are currently testing two EOBR's and anyone who wanted to be a test truck was welcome to participate.
    Qualcom @ $800.00 was one and I forget the name of the other but it only costs $100.00. Each would have a small monthly fee like Prepass. They are free to use as a test truck and I think I remember him saying that he expected them to be mandatory by the end of 2014. Now I don't know if he meant mandatory at Mercer or for everyone on the road. Maybe this is the reason for the big recruiting push?

    I don't think that is the reason for the big recruiting push.

    I am not sure what Mercer's csa score is for driver logs, but if it is getting high then maybe they will have no choice but to make eobrs mandatory.

    The only area they are deficient in is HOS and only by 4.1 %.

    It's all his. I'm not sure what flavor he has, but it looks like blueberry. Not a very refreshing flavor.
