You will be explaining yourself in the office next day, "So why did you back XXX feet?"
I've backed distances like that. Never been questioned on it.

Backing is the flavor of the month here.
Next month the flavor will be something else.

I think telematics knows when we're backing up regardless of which gear we're in. It knows which way the wheels are moving.
Nope.
We have been "encouraged" to drift or coast as much as possible to avoid a back if it's "not needed". I have 4 1/2 years safe driving, not because I have made my backing goals or numbers, but because I work safe and avoid all that little crap. I back no more than necessary to complete my route.
Telematics show when the wheels move not on the transmission.Don't forget to back it up in neutral, so you don't show up on telematics.

If was being ojs-ed I would walk it if that message came up in the broad. If the sup said to drive it, I would say that's not what I'm suppust to do and you shouldn't be talking only observing. Then the ride get's thrown out when he says do it any way. The proof is in telematics. If not a ojs then drive that sheet.
This guy runs a car repair service out of his house on the side. Gets a lot of heavy automotive parts and I am there 2-3 times a week. Many times in the winter, I don't attempt the driveway because of ice or snow and will leave his parcels by the mailbox.I would put in a Dr bag. Leave it by the mailbox. That is what management is telling us to do in our center. To avoid backing. No customer service anymore. They said they will handle any complaints. Do what they preach. Make them make the choices
No we have been thru this a few times on here. If u coast in neutral it will not count as a backing occurrence.
A nice perk of being satellited is that management doesn't get telematics on our vehicles. If I have 90 stops a day, I probably back up on 70+ of them an an average day. Am sure that this would set off some kind of alarm in the sups office.Nice easy slope on that there hill. Drive all the way and and coast back down the hill to turn around at mailbox. Noone would be the wiser. Unless, of course, if they wondered why your DIAD gps did not jive with the telematics.
You need to be consistent and do the job the same whether you are being supervised or not. As you say, "the proof is in the Telematics" and if Telematics shows you driving up the same driveways that you walked off during an OJS then you are going to have some serious explaining to do and any reasonable argument that you might have been able to make about your dispatch or time allowance being unrealistic just got tossed in the crapper. If you jerk them around they will jerk you around even worse.
