That's not going to help if they don't change the criteria for speeding in people net.
Sweet, any info on when this is going to take place?

That PeopleNet feature makes me laugh...I was going 37mph in a 45 zone and it went off. Seems there's quite the delay from Earth to space. The 25mph zone was BEHIND me about a half a mile. I can't wait til they call me in on that one.

You must work somewhere else. Our PeopleNet just monitors if you go 68 or over.

The memo said the shops will be working on it over the next 90 days.
I have a Volvo with a Volvo engine. No passing gear for me. :-(
Mildew what term. are you out of ?
Should have put more exclamation marks at the end of the headline because it's worth it.
It's a long overdue quality of life change, driving a neutered truck will drive a man insane!!!

I do. We've had them about A month now.
So are they not turning the Volvo engines up,or are they just not giving the passing window to you?

No passing window on Volvos, maxxforce, ISM, or Paccar. Only ISX Cummins.
Turning all trucks up though. 65 pedal, 67 cruise.

City driver used up my 20 mile window. I didn't get to use it
I forsee this happening a lot. Everybody will complain and it will get taken away.
OK, i am from SLC, u guys back east get info much faster then here.Rob doesn't like us
Lol. It was on our peoplenet also. It just said, "get with your bossman to hear of the new changes coming about our equipment" they turned my truck up the next day. Just 1 mph but it's nice to pass these other ltl guys without being stuck in the hammer lane for 25 miles. Fred Ex and Southeastern drivers are some of the stingiest drivers I know. IMO, this extra speed is the biggest safety improvement they did for us so far. I think they need to get this passing speed fixed for each new login instead of every 580 miles.OK, i am from SLC, u guys back east get info much faster then here.Rob doesn't like us
Our peoplenet is much slower than before ,since we start doing p&d on it.A lot of messages you can only hear halfway and a lot of times we have a hard time logging in.They said it's because they are putting more terminals on board for p&d.I just think it is outdated slow system.But again, what do I know. I am just a truck driver
