New qualcomm program that knows exactly what you're doing.

So does most of this company.

 

I was glad to get away from that beep on the qualcomm if you went over speed. Now you will have messages coming up saying to slow down. Now that's a little bit too much.

 

"OH, it knows when you are speeding
it knows when you are late....

It knows if you've been bad or good
so......."

Ah, forget it.....

 

I wonder what qc says is the appropriate speed limit in a parking lot?? lol

 

Yeah ours beep if you go over 70mph and for o/o's their qc ping is set to 120mph

 

Nah, that's when the stability warning beeps for doing donuts in the lot.

 

Some companies use it and some don't. Everyone is right that it has been around for years. It is why your dispatcher can get a call about where the load is and tell them where you are. The more you use, the more it costs for the company so not everyone uses all the features. 20 years ago my dispatcher at swift called me over and asked me to look at something. He said "you know the fastest route from LA to Phoenix?" I said "of course, right up the interstate". He said "then why do you think this guy is in Las Vegas right now?"

 

it's not a new qualcomm program. it's been around since day one with werner. 1998 or somewhere around that time.

 

A few years ago I was in the office of where I worked when one of the puters beeped and opened a window. Turns out the driver of trk123 just went 20 over on a downhill and the Q/C warned despatch in real time. They called that driver in to safety for a bad BAD driver.

 

Yep, wouldn't be surprised if Ray and the boys in Lahood make it mandatory that every speeding violation is sent in electronically to them so it can be assessed against a company and driver in the almighty CSA clearing house.
