[QUOTE="tworavens, post: 581397, member: 22946"] Absolutely. Area trace is one of the Flavors of the Month, it is supposed to be 85% or better. The reasoning goes something like this: EDD is the optimal drive path (no left turns, even!) so if you deviate from EDD you are (a) adding miles, and (b) adding time to your day. If they wanted to they could try to make this a case of stealing time. When Area Trace was our flavor of the month I followed EDD 100%. It added 10% to my miles and a half hour or more to my day, so my boss lets me do it the way I want now.:teethy:. With telematics now they can look at my trace on the map, and I defy them to show me a more efficient path. I still ODS the center to get permission to go off area for any reason (misloads and such) so they cannot try to ding me for that. [/QUOTE]
