why do drivers stand for governed trucks?

What about if your employer didn't offer those bonuses? Would you still care then? And don't say yes to prove me wrong.

 

I never owned a truck a truck, and I'm big time on saving fuel. Just saying !

 

I also don't own and have never owned a truck and I don't waste fuel "just because". Eventually the bottom line might affect me some day.

 

15 mph faster in a 10 hour day equates to me as a 150 miles further then the slower driver, but I will agree with the steering wheel holders unleashed........scary thought.

 

Agree with that.Some of these drivers today do not need anything over 65mph.
I have had several different triple digit trucks and it is a whole other animal at 80+ mph as far as handling and keeping things under control.
I find 75 mph in a 70 zone a very comfortable speed and a sweet spot for my truck.
As far as fuel i still average 6.8 to 7.0.
If i run 65 i may get 7.2 so not a huge difference.

 

LIAR!!!! You can't get those kind of numbers running that fast! Everyone knows that all trucks are the same and you have to run 60 mph to get fuel mileage!

 

You know thinking about that--it must be TRUE--why else would a truck going up a hill in the right lane--kinda slow--look out his mirror see ME in the left lane--and figure--we'll we r all the same so he wont ever catch me? and then pull out in front of me @60mph?

 

Your mistake is thinking those type of drivers use mirrors and reasoning simultaneously.

 

Freight hauler logic!

 

Govern Trucks sux and unsafe over all. Yes they haave some safety factor but unsafe ones also. Pros and cons in everything.

Have I driven Govern truck Yes, Did I like it? No, DO I think they safer? No, Would I drive one again? Pending
