Crazy idea I haven’t seen posted here, but hear me out:
Stop driving like a dick. Follow the rules of the road. Stop speeding. Stop swerving. Stop going over the lines at stop signs and traffic lights. ETC…
This will slow down the route by hours. That’s the only way that they’ll discontinue it, when they realize that it’s making the delivery routes slower.
and stop driving like a dick, you’re driving a fucking truck.
Meh, these systems are ripe for false positives, all it does is weed out riskier drivers, or provide incentive to encourage reduction in pay and benefits in order to mitigate said “risk.” These systems are cancerous.
You trust some POS computer over a human driver? I don’t. If the damn computer is so correct in its assessment, it should be driving. And, obviously, I know that’s coming, but it’s not here yet. It should be one, or the other, not a computer back-seat driver.
Usually they just flag events like really hard braking or other high-g events, speeding, travelling off-route if you pay for that module, and operating hours. At least that’s the easy to tattle stuff. They’re not smart enough to do anything like drive for you.
But some operators DO need to calm the fuck down and just obey the speed limit. These things usually let their manager know they’re shitty drivers before the police let them know they’re shitty drivers and they subsequently lose their DOT certification.

Have you driven a 26 wheeler in the city with people that don’t pay attention or even know the rules of the road?
It’s never the speeder at fault, it’s always those damn {politicians, cops, other drivers, cameras} who are wrong.
