    That is one of the positive aspects of the qualcomm , peoplenet and other eobr's ; you can see the max speed driven and you would have been exonerated in 5 seconds .

    Well ,I should say it's positive unless you're doing 100mph down the hills out west !!

    Its only positive if the person in charge is smart enough to use the technology and not have me come in to the New Jersey terminal to waste my time. Also if your truck is governed at 55 mph they wouldn't need such technology to verify such stupidity from 4 wheelers. Being on east coast and flat land its impossible to make a truck do 70 mph governed at 55 mph no matter how positive I think lol

    lol, unless it's a 2013 or older cascadia . You can turn on and off the key while keeping the pedal floored and have no governor at all for passing the crowd .

    It literally takes 5 seconds to see if you were really doing 70 and they all have very user friendly gui's so you could have probably fought that. Its probably better off that you left anyway

    I was told I could have fought it and won. But my thinking was if the company hires people as dumb as this I I would be better off going to another company

    They still try to call me to work for them to do local and intermodal runs for them (closest terminal they have is 25 minutes from my house in Ayer,MA). I always tell them no thanks.

    Almost did one of their Walmart vendor accounts. But I would of had to take a .03 pay cut(but 2,500 mls per wk min) & go to E. Gate Ca 1151 miles away for orientation for a local job? Sounded like bait & switch to me.
     
    MidwestResident and drvrtech77 Thank this.

    Some of their accounts are good, others are horrible. Most of you guys wouldn't understand what one was. Most of you are cry babies that want to be treated like royalty. Like only you could drive that truck to it's destination. Thank you driver, you're the greatest!

    Grow up.
