    You make broad statements and hasty generalizations that don't always apply in every circumstance in the real world with DOT or police stops / checks. Don't assume authority.

    "...if you are involved in some type of accident, the D.O.T will check your phone, and even if all you doing is listening to goggle maps directions in the eyes of the law, 'you are on your phone while driving'. And you will be terminated."

    After you've been in the industry for 14 years, as you said, you should know better than to assume that law enforcement will emphatically check a driver's phone after being involved in some type of accident...the rest of your argument hinges on that precipitous assumption and isn't even worth commenting on.

    "I don't work at SAIA, but"...

    All I can visualize in my mind is Harry Lonsdale's response...

    I know you're not in, which means no one cares what you know.

    I am going with my experience, at the company's I worked at, nothing more nothing less.
    Are there company's that have those features activated? Yes, of course there are, none of the one's I have ever worked but I know they are out there..
    As far as the subject of cell phone map apps, I am going with what the safety dept say's at the company I currently am employed at, nothing more, nothing less.
