    I just logged on from home and it works. You have to go to Swift University section. It looks same to me. Company drivers 62mph. O/O no mentor 68mph. O/O mentor 65mph.

    I went to University and saw nothing to click on for the speed thing. What does the link look like?

    And it appears that nothing has changed....

    This was posted to our Qualcoms on April 1(April fools, Swift gonna stay slow!), I looked for it just in case myself. Surely a joke, a cruel one at that.

    OK - I checked this out online. The "new" policy looks like the same old policy to me.
    In order to find this stuff on Swift University, do a search using the keyword "speed" and it should bring up 2 separate links. One is to the PDF file explaining the policy, the other link is for the video and quiz.
    I hope this helps!

    To find it go to swift university and type "speed" in the search box, its the second result.

    Yes, that was a tough one, all right.

    For those who haven't done it yet, you already know this stuff. I didn't see any revisions at all in there.

    My mentor already got a violation. One of his former students got one too. Funny thing is his student was at a shipper at the time of the violation!

    Memphis fleet got a message saying they are having problems with it right now. Whatever that means.

    68 is okay with me. If only 68 on my speedo actually meant 68. My real ground speed at 68 on the gauge is 66.
