Last week we got to see the first tforce freight KW tractor at our barn . The driver said it had cameras facing both ways and dispatchers were coaching them every morning of the footage . The dispatcher said the driver was going to fast down a hill and should have stayed on the brakes ...

The dispatcher has no experience, you should never ride your brakes.
The correct advice is take the hill a slow speed and stay in a low gear.

We the unwilling
Lead by the unknowing
Have done so much with so little for so long
We are now qualified to do anything with nothing

Not sure how that fits into this conversation, but it made me think of the current state of things.

One of our road drivers had a lane violation and the camera took a picture and in the reflection of the windshield he had his phone in his hand! Coaching sessions for everyone!

Probably took a pic with inward facing camera and claimed the reflection pic to get around the agreement. Wonder how they will dodge lawsuits with female drivers in a sleeper cab changing clothes?
