    Those good ole boys in NC can't drive. I've always said, most people in NC drive like a bunch of #### yankees...those kind of numbers back that statement up. That must have happened after the Propaganda boss recorded last weeks message because he said we had a pretty good week accident wise.

    Just another driver distraction device. They add more distracting crap with sound effects in the cab of the truck to make your interior sound like a video arcade, but oh dear god... don't touch your phone more than once to adjust a map, or even think about using the Peoplenet app to display the company directions to a customer(because it goes into safe mode so you can't use it while driving, even for the directions). I foresee the crash crap being tied into the camera so that when it goes beep, the camera records your driving. And then after so many beeps (even if it's a malfunction), safety will call and coach you on how to do your job.

    Or worse you get an AI camera that constantly scores your attention levels and constantly provides coaching input to someone who makes your handler seem competent.

    Man if that happens your thread’s going to soar on TTR :D

    I don’t have to pay attention,the truck will warn me if I’m drifting into another lane.
    I don’t have to check my mirrors,the truck will alert me if someone is on my side.

    If/when that happens, others will have to keep it going because I will be long gone.

    Let's hope they know what they are doing. Got in contact with the permit department and was told no permit needed for me to enter Maryland with beer..which I doubt, but if they don't want to issue me one then so be it.

    After my beer travels through Washington DC, and Baltimore I have a medical pick up in PA. First time picking up which I believe to be a trailer full of vaccines headed out West.

    Well scratch that, more like a trailer full of pills unless the Walmart DC I'm heading with it will be doing some major vaccine work.
     
    Bumper Thanks this.
