    I agree with you completely. That's why I disabled mine, no more problems. Yes, it can be disabled.

    Last I heard he was at the truck stop waiting on a load(4 weeks +). Maybe he's working for Schneider until IRT finds him a load.

    I'm not a fan of OnGuard. There are situations where OnGuard acts inappropriately. However as much as I think we'd be better off without it I can't argue with the numbers. Dropping the speed on company trucks to 60 MPH is the only other thing is the last 25 years with a similar impact on DOT reportable accidents (read rear end accidents and rollovers). Even if the technology isn't perfect, from a legal perspective the company is better with it.

    It's real simple and the company already knows a couple of the ways drivers defeat OnGuard. If you're an IC then it's your choice. If you're a company driver and get caught it's your @##.
