[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1101645, member: 14668"] Why I [I]like[/I] Telematics: Had a customer on my route who lives out in the country on a gated estate. The gate is electric, with a code to enter that I have. He was having a bunch of work done to his place, landscaping and roof/gutter replacement etc so for a couple of weeks there were a lot of contractors and workers going in and out of there. One day, somebody backed a truck up to his garage when he wasnt home and stole about $3K worth of tools, air compressor, ladders, fishing poles and other easily pawnable items. It happened to be a day when I had a delivery there, and the customer wound up asking me whether or not I had been near the garage or seen anybody ripping him off. I dont [I]think[/I] he suspected me....but I still took comfort in the fact that, had my actions on that day been questioned, the Telematics report would have shown that (a) I parked about 100 ft away from the garage and (b) something like 45 [I]seconds[/I] elapsed between the time I parked, scanned pkg and made delivery and the time I started the car up again and drove away which was far less time than it would have taken a person to find all of the stolen items and get them loaded into a truck. From a liability standpoint and as a protection against false accusations, I like the peace of mind and transparency that Telematics provides. [/QUOTE]
