[QUOTE="'Lord Brown's bidding', post: 1152442, member: 32753"] UPS instructs us to obey speed limits....but then fires this driver for doing so? We all know telematics monitors our speed-I have a feeling I am to be reminded of this in the days to come-and yet I know many drivers ride their governors on the way to their areas (mine's is set a little lower, and I cannot catch them). We get PCMs all the time on intersection observations, looking L-R-L when leaving the yard; they even found a bridge over the highway most of the hub takes to get to their routes to measure following distance on the highway, but we don't receive PCMs on speeding, nor should we. If your eyes are on the road (and your mind is there, too), and you are not going [I]ahead[/I] of the flow, overtaking vehicles all the time, you are just fine; statistically, you are safer than the person doing 55 (again, I know, counter-intuitive).
