I looked in the new batch of tractors and they have this front end collision avoidance system thing mounted below the stereo. Is this just one that beeps at you when too close or is it the full job that brakes?
Yep,they just give it to another sucker if you refuse to pull.lolI learned that little secret when I was at Con-job, dispatch got really mad when you refused to pull a trailer because it was overweight... Safety always my ass...
It warn's you.But,it will stop the TractorI looked in the new batch of tractors and they have this front end collision avoidance system thing mounted below the stereo. Is this just one that beeps at you when too close or is it the full job that brakes?

That happens here all the time, refuse to bring a 53' into some residential and they'll find an idiot fresh out of school willing to show you up but they can't because they tear the top of the trailer off.
We watched the video, not all that interesting. System is going to do what the system is going to do. Didn't see anyway a driver could do something to void a warranty.This month's Safety Video is on the Avoidance System in the new equipment.Also,we got new 2018's rolling into our term.Was at Freightliner yesterday.Seen at least 8 twin axles and bunch of single axle daycabs.Everyone Suppose to watch video and sign off on training.Because Freightliner will void warranty if driver's have not been trained before driving

Haven't seen any.I had heard that they would be ordering more KW.I want to know where the KDubs are!!
We got about 30 2018's here in PHX over the last few weeks, guess we are keeping about 16 of them and the rest are being sent out other places. They will replace all of our colombias and some of the 2009 cascadias. I hopped in one to check it out the other day, the seats are very comfortable... prob because it hasn't had a bunch of 300+ pounders crushing the life out of it. The Blu also looks nice integrated into the dash.
Can reboot by just holding the home key down and holding it on the newest one.No need to reset from the side button.When holding down it will make crazy noise.Just hold it down till it resetsWe've got some '17s with the integrated Blu... looks really cool and professionally done but they forgot that sometimes we have to reboot these things and with it in the dash we can't do it ourselves anymore.

Not sure if it still will work.Please try it and let me know.Like I said it use to make clicking noise till it shutdown.Oh ok, thanks. I didn't know that, thought the only way to reboot the new ones was that little button on the side.
Well I guess this will be the first monthly safety video in my near 4 year employment with OD that I will watch! We just get a printout and a paper to sign,
