    Can anybody explain how a 420 mile load has a 195.52 dollar fsc but a 810 mile load has a 165.00 fsc.

    Please, Schneider math is worse than mine....

    Rant over...

    But I'm just talking FSC, that's a variable based on fuel prices not location....

    But I digress,

    Right, that is why I mentioned location. FSC for one load can be much different than another load based on the extreme differences in fuel prices in different locations.

    Fuel Surcharge is supposed to be based on the Department of Energy daily fuel average so location should be irrelevant.

    If it's .30 cpm mile it shouldn't matter where those miles are.

    But I digress, trying to figure how SNI calculates anything is like trying to figure out what came 1st, the Chicken or the Egg.

    Schneiders answer is the........ donkey....

    Has there been an update to the Qualcomm recently that now gives you a "Critical Event" for following too closely for a set amount of time? I got my first one about 2 weeks ago and had no idea what caused it as I didn't notice it until I stopped. Sent my dbl a message saying I had a critical event but had no idea when it happened or what caused it and never heard back. Since then I've racked up probably about 20 more... Apparently following behind slow moving vehicles for too long while waiting for a chance to move over and pass is now considered a critical event. I racked up 2 more today for waiting to pass slow vehicles and I never got within 120ft of them. Pretty much if your waiting to pass and the on guard is beeping, a citical event will be reported after like 15 seconds...

    Yea he drove right into the capital building in Sacramento, KTS is his son, but that put the kabootz on Sweet Simon. If the dude did that now, they'd probably shot him as a terrorist. Like two million in art work met Peterbilt radiator lol.

    Following distance will set off a driver alert critical event. At this time no alert will be sent to your dbl about it, and they can't see it, which is why you heard nothing back. They will only get an alert if your on guard detects a collision mitigation event and must brake to avoid it.
