[QUOTE="soberups, post: 681051, member: 14668"] They do have the ability to take a GPS "picture" of the route you traveled the previous day. There is a colored line which represents your travel path that is superimposed over a Google Earth satellite photo. It shows everywhere that you stopped and everywhere that you backed up. There is also a printout of every backing event, with the vehicle speed and total distance backed; however, this information is often grossly inaccurate. Last week I was questioned about why I backed up a total of 111 feet at one stop. This was a physical impossibility; I backed into a driveway that is only 20 feet long, up to the loading door on a building that is only 90 feet long. Were the data accurate, I would have backed completely [I]through[/I] both walls of the building and out into a creek behind it. Such data is worthless for disciplinary purposes, but it does give the center manager an opportunity to spend lots and lots of time sitting behind a desk and drawing on maps with a highlighter pen.
