[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 4219329, member: 77939"] Agree 100%. We actually had a mgt. struck by a shifter running a stop sign. Broke both his arms. Shifter still there, will say he does drive slower... The original question stands: what to do? My personal SOP is if I see a blatantly dangerous act on the yard or even on the road(by a UPS truck), I'll address it personally(I don't care what they or any Union thug thinks). Our yard speed limit is 10 mph, so it's pretty easy to speed. I'd say 95% of any vehicle on our yard is speeding. My experience has been: I have never seen any mgt. person address speeding unless there was a customer complaint or an accident(tickets issued). There is speeding and running stop signs 24/7 on our yard. Mechanics test drive vehicle repairs at way over 10mph, more like 40-50 mph. while running stop signs to get a good start. I get passed every night by a mileage feeder in a work zone. Every night. Speeding. I could go on and on. OK. While Integrity means well, I personally believe this behavior can only be corrected with peer interaction or severe disciplinary action by mgt. More interesting is the general apathy and positive support of this behavior. This behavior is SOP. Mgt. condones it, union condones it, employees embrace it=fatalities. Our yard is a wild west free for all, ignored by all. [/QUOTE]
