Because it's a major change. It's contrary to previous training. I've learned to ask twice and end with "you sure about this?" Because, if something happens and they ask"were your 4 ways on.....?"

The drivers beat it into mgmts heads to NOT use 4-ways unless backing or stopped because it's awfully hard to communicate ones intentions using turn signals if they're all going at once. Also if they're used all the time then nothing stands out when a situation changes.
That being said our yard is still a wild west show with accidents waiting to happen.

Our yard is good except for the feeders. They don't abide by speed limits, stop signs, or even parking. They park in the oddest and most outrageous spots.

Well said. When I went to feeders(out of pkg car), I mentioned that fact also(about using direction signals for direction changes)! All to no avail. I thought maybe a flashing beacon like the shifters....but they have their flashers and beacon on!...............On a side note some of the rail yards require all flashers on and the shifters there don't follow ANY kind of road rules at all! Most dangerous and a tragedy waiting. About the wild west show......it is flat out amazing to me that mgt. is so willing to look the other way in the name of production. Although you see the same willingness throughout the hub.

How would you suggest we park a vehicle ranging in length from 35 feet to 110 feet long?

It's where they park without the trailer connected.
Yeah, I just got my card out of my lunch bag to check that. It probably should say to actually use them. Something else for some safety wonk to address.
