Hi Ms, well, being of skeptical nature, they probably say, "OK", but it still goes on your record somewhere way in the back, and then off to the Pentagon.
Oh, I'm sure it's on my "permanent record". Right there with being sent to the principal's office for shooting a spitball in fourth grade.
Just what everyone else has posted .Its not a big deal,unless your getting several a week. You may also have a tilt sensor that will trigger critical events. I use to get them with SNI trying to build up speed on one particular on ramp. Overspeed is another,if its setup to trigger a critical event. I have got those going down hills.I never even knew speed,or lean angles gave those. #### robot box!!
[QUOTE="semi" retired;4214288]Tilt sensor? Like those on the old pinball machines? I used to hate that, wasted quarter.[/QUOTE] High end pinball machine ...
If yer tilt sensor is going' off on a curved entrance ramp... yer headed fer a roll over. If ya haven't been there yet, count yerself lucky. If it happens more than once... you've got a problem.
I drove with one of those PITA things for awhile, several hard brakes indicate a driver follows too close, and the tilt sensor can be set off by hitting a big pot hole, as explained to me by a dispatcher I had. setting it off once in a while isn't a biggie, they are looking for repeat offenders,
I had 2 of these in a couple weeks, said I was gonna roll over doing a turn out of Truckstop and went through a pothole and one to make turn into an on ramp. I was driving a Volvo and a few weeks and a few phone calls to safety asking why I was making turns at 11-14mph that gave the event I knew it was just bs. Turns out the U bolts to the frame right behind sleeper cab were faulty one was broken and so the cab would lean a little extra on turns etc.. Still funny how Swift still wanted me to slow down , I told them 11-14 mph turn onto an on ramp and entering busy roads was slow enough. Sometimes in a parking lot I would take off and my drives weren't touching the pavement, I never saw the broken u bolt, it was broke on the inner side facing driveshaft.
It's not something you need to worry about. It'll be "points" on your Swift record but since you don't get these often it shouldn't be a big deal. Braking is better than rear ending someone and being seen as at fault. It's Swift way of observing things internally. After so long they will fall off your Swift record.
