Maybe you've gotten older and lost your touch.Even in manual mode it's not the same. I could go up Cabbage or Elk Mountain no chains in a regular 10 speed. Now I can't even go up in chains with these new automatics.

Stay away from other Trucks and packs.The majority of pileups,start, with following too close, Speeding, and too fast for conditions. Driving an automatic may account for part of cause, but the first 3 offenses are the biggest factors.

What we were told from safety was use the phrase "driver discretion". The term is supposed to cover you from a occurrence or repercussion in bad weather. Snow and ice storms. If that doesn't work at your center. Come to work and hook up. Roll the gate and get maybe a mile from terminal and floor it till your tires break traction. Then turn around and tell your dispatchers that you broke traction and don't feel safe. Both have worked for me.
Be professional when you do it though.
I've had a copy of this for years, thanks for putting this out again. I've used the part about reporting FDX to osha when they threatened with points, and handed management a copy of this.Your Rights Under the STAA: Refusing to Drive Under Bad Weather
