Every camera company is a bad company.

I've seen these cameras see a speed limit sign that is on a service road right near the interstate and it records that speed limit n not even the one the actual driver was on, like the service Rd being 45 mph and the interstate being 70 mph.... So take your cameras n shuuvve them where the sun don't shine

 

Once again, that's where common sense prevails. They record the incident *and* video footage for "coaching." If your safety department doesn't take one look at the video clip to see the service road vs interstate conundrum and hit "delete," they are worthless.

 

I have had "Collision Warning" because the camera picked up an overpass that I was about to go under. Also I got "dinged" for following too close because some idiot for BigM almost took my front bumper off when he passed me and just came right back over inches away from me.

 

Agree, but unfortunately in this microwave everything insta something world we live in. Most "supervisors" don't bother. They see a video pop up. Briefly at all glance at it while their on the phone with baby momma or daddy and move it on down the line to whoever does the reprimanding. Instead of actually looking at the footage, or the circumstances and using the 3 brain cells they have left after hours of tiktok consumption to comprehend what would have triggered the camera- WHICH by the way only operates off of predetermined perameters. It has no logic system. The If- Then is only hard data. Not adaptable.

 

Well he fired so bye bye

 

Yeah!! ^^what he said^^

 

You mean the ad that I update every 6 months or so? Like most, our fleet's drivers are aging (average age here is 67). I'm closing in on 50, and I am one of the youngest guys running around here aside from the shop helpers. People retire, get sick, pass away. The most common reasons people leave here are, in order: Illness (self or family), retirement, termination (usually safety-related), take a local position in their home town, and sadly, death. Of those, the terminations are mostly new-hires that think they can be cowboys in our trucks, diving to the inside lane from the on-ramp for no reason, speeding unnecessarily, or driving recklessly in construction zones.

We did have a guy quit last year after only 6 days... couldn't handle going from an unlimited truck to one with a limiter. We had one leave to try out tanker. We had a gal leave when she got the "Ed Rooney" call about her son leading her down the primrose path (skipping school while she was gone, she'll be back once he graduates).

Out of 10 applications, I reject 9 of them. The pickin's are slim out there, that's why the "almost constant Help Wanted ad" is on here. I have hired a grand total of 3 from that ad over the course of 2 years... two of them are still with us today, one left to care for his wife when she was diagnosed with stage IV cancer. We won't hire just anyone.

 

how big is the company? what type of hauling do?
