I intend on throwing my jacket over the camera.And can you imagine what it will be like when they put cameras in the truck's? I think that certainly is inevitable.

We had a courier ‘forced’ into retirement who went to work for Lone Star (regional company). They had cameras in the cab, so he would unplug it daily.I intend on throwing my jacket over the camera.
Pretty much.I've been out for over 5 years, looks like now you can't even scratch your ass without management knowing about it.
Complete control over you thanks to Fred.

He was ‘forced’ into unemployment shortly afterward.
Sometimes you can’t fix stupid.
Cool story. FedEx isn't my career. The cameras probably won't be installed while I'm still with the company and if they are installed during my final weeks or months, do you really think I'm going to give af who I offend by where I hang my outerwear? So you can be condescending all you like, but I don't think I'm the "stupid" one here since all of my eggs aren't in one basketWe had a courier ‘forced’ into retirement who went to work for Lone Star (regional company).

So I speed and am distracted which causes me to crash into a family.......Their lawyer gets onboard camera playback.yikes..that sounds expensive for fedexAnd can you imagine what it will be like when they put cameras in the truck's? I think that certainly is inevitable.
And by what criteria am I stupid other than your inability to respond to a well articulated point without name calling?Confucius say, if the shoe fits....
Yup. Upper management is too myopic to see past their own noses and they're never contested on it due to the scores of lifers who defend their every move and personally attack anyone who questions it.So I speed and am distracted which causes me to crash into a family.......Their lawyer gets onboard camera playback.yikes..that sounds expensive for fedex
The “stupid” referred to the subject of my story, but you seem hell bent on claiming it for yourself. SMHAnd by what criteria am I stupid other than your inability to respond to a well articulated point without name calling?
The point of the cameras is to fix driving behavior like that before you crash. That and provide evidence for your termination if your behavior doesn’t improve.So I speed and am distracted which causes me to crash into a family.......Their lawyer gets onboard camera playback.yikes..that sounds expensive for fedex
Right, but what the other guy was saying is that the lawyer isn't going to care about what the driver was doing. He'll use those as evidence to get a settlement out of the company.The point of the cameras is to fix driving behavior like that before you crash.

That’s a stupid argument. A company using more safety technology will not make settlements higher. It will prevent them from happening in the first place.Right, but what the other guy was saying is that the lawyer isn't going to care about what the driver was doing.

so no more accidents then? That’s it? A camera will discourage things like texting but it’s still not going to be able to mitigate human error and things like exhaustion. And when accidents inevitably still happen, the lawyer will be there to cash. Not sure how that’s stupidThat’s a stupid argument.

Seriously, are you 16? Your lack of knowledge is astounding. You really think a trucking company would be less liable without a documented safety program?Always have been surprised that Fedex always blame drivers even when not at fault and documents it...opens company to major liability issue by documenting and disciplining driver.Police says it a no fault accident..then Fedex says no it was our drivers fault...Subpoena..I testify in court that my manager disciplined me and put it in writing it was my fault..yikes

Cop on stand says I couldn’t determine fault. I get on stand and inform jury my boss documented me that it’s my fault and here is his report as to why I was at fault. Hmmm. Jury now decides.... this is civil court we talking about.some times multimillion dollar settlements.In court, your discipline doesn't mean squat. There is a determination made by a cop, and that's why they're going to go with.
And you guys claim Express drivers are intelligent.Cop on stand says I couldn’t determine fault.
