    What this also means with the speed reading the way I think they're collecting it is NO PASSING or you're flagged.
    Especially no passing other trucks on two lane undivided highways which is 3/4 of the way to Whitehorse, even if they're bagging so badly on the hills you're in second gear behind them.

    It's really changing every aspect of how regular people move in their trucks.

    Why not get one to show your side in any case? Remember that with any company you are automatically guilty in any complaint because you drive the truck and are the professional driver. God I wish I had one in bc when I did grocery in the city. Every jerk would see the phone number on the side of the truck and have an axe to grind.
     
    Tam_Tam Thanks this.

    hahahaha I think we will get a gps unit. I think the corporate policy of "no more than 10% overspeed or corrective action will follow" is BECAUSE PeopleGet told the company there is a margin of error of 10%! My husband Steve thought of that today, and be danged if he just might have nailed the answer on that mystery.
    People may be getting reprimanded for no reason.

    I was seriously thinking of a magnet for the back of the trailer that says: "If this vehicle is causing long traffic back-ups, please call: xxx-xxxx" hahaha
    Because NOW we ARE! Like thirty car trains during work rush between Dawson Creek and Wonowon. Departure is at midnight so we're smack dab in that vicinity when people are trying to hustle. Think maybe we may park up for an hour or so to save heartache for the other traffic.

    Found a great new company and waiting for the interview. When things are set I think perhaps the fuses for the PeopleFret may just disappear during the 30 day notice period.

    Sounds like a job for a good pair of side cutters. :)
