[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 440116, member: 11425"] In defense of an earlier post I made: remember, I was [I]trained[/I] to leave the tractor running while doing the final inspection after putting together a set. The training I received was from a [I]manager[/I]. He said it was the only time you were allowed to have the keys in the ignition and tractor running while you were out of the cab. I agree that one should normally always remove the keys. I was just stating how things are done in my neck of the woods. I guess I am feeling a little defensive because I don't want anyone to think I am unsafe. I am simply working as directed and deferring to UPS' judgement as to whether their training is safe or not. In my former building they post idle times too. And speeds around 80? I have yet to drive a UPS tractor that can get past 68 on level ground. Not that I ever went that fast :wink2:. [/QUOTE]
