[QUOTE="FracusBrown, post: 801177, member: 29360"] Lets not get all mushy. Safety is important because it drives cost and keeps uncle Sam from instituting regulations that would cost a lot of money. There is huge legal liability involved with installing a starter disable system. The first time someone is killed or seriously injured due to the installation of the non-manufacturer approved starter disable system the company is on the hook for big dollars It's cot virtually noting to leave the responsibility up to the operator and doesn;t assume liability for their failure to follow clearly established policy. Telematics helps drive compliance and production without assuming liability. Unfortunately it is a highly unreliable system. It has the same effect as a surveillance camera or a traffic light camera. Just knowing it is there causes people to comply, even if it doesn't work 50% of the time. There are somewhere around 15% with data reporting errors daily based upon the reports I see. A far as cost savings, the information is manipulated by the group touting it's success. Put up the facts, not the propaganda. Don't forget to take into consideration the cost of installing and maintaining the system. The potential savings and improvements is not the same as actual savings and improvements. How 99.9 percent of anything can be reported by a system that has less than 90% reporting at any given time is a good example of how the facts are manipulated. [/QUOTE]
