[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1221910, member: 14668"] I have 2 pickups on a country road with no shoulder and nowhere to park. They are wineries, with long driveways, and they dont want me going up there unless I need to because I kick up a lot of dust and tear up their steep gravel driveways. So, they hang "yes" signs down by the road if they have anything going out. If there is no "yes" sign, I pull the DIAD out and stop complete the pickup as I drive by. It makes me show up on a report. I dont care. My other options are (a) to stop in the middle of the road, shut off engine, and stop complete, (b) back into the driveway, park, shut off engine, hit stop complete or (c) drive 6 miles to my next pickup and hit stop complete there...by which time I will be outside the +- 15 minute compliance window for the previous pickup. Option (a) isnt safe. Option (b) isnt particularly safe either and it will report on Telematics as an additional back. Option (c) will show both a GPS discrepancy[I] and a [/I]pickup completed outside the compliance time window to show on the on the report. [B]Since any action I take to keep my name from showing up on one report will [I]automatically[/I] cause it to appear on a different one[/B], I just quit worrying about the damn reports altogether and use my preferred method of pulling the DIAD with one hand and stop completing the pickup as I drive by.
