    Which Expediter Will Be the First to Use Driver Cams?

    I could see possibly employees with minimal training. The parameters for a actual employee are much different than a independent contractor. Just a hypothetical, what happens if a driver sneezes or yawns? Shut the truck down, go get a physical, and since you yawned, you are now on the sidelines...

    Which Expediter Will Be the First to Use Driver Cams?

    All the more reason that I would oppose driver facing cameras. She is listing all the reasons they might be used against you verses a benefit to the driver. Keep in mind, the very people that are looking at a recording, are probably the least qualified to look at it. So who is looking at it? The...

    Tithing Your 10%? You're Getting Played

    I guess it is to some extent. Although I am mindful that most churches need some form of income to keep the doors open. You would think though that they would at least give a plastic Jesus for the donation.

    Gays can now marry..

    Not because they ruled in favor of same sex marriages, but how they did it. It is hard telling on how they would rule on something like that.

    Gays can now marry..

    The only real argument I could see is if they demand every church marry them. I could see some problems there.

    Don't need a camera for that. Speed can be taken right off the ECM. As a secondary verification on something like that, a investigation usually can determine vehicle speeds based on numerous factors.

    Taking offense at flags

    With all the problems that exist today, I can't believe we are wasting time on flags. Too many other problems to focus on.

    Guns save lives

    I agree with what you are saying or even maybe a year ago. With a change in the makeup of the court, now I'm not so sure.

    Which Expediter Will Be the First to Use Driver Cams?

    Can't argue with Phil's premise, but it is all about the dollar. Training of any form is more expensive than the camera.

    Guns save lives

    Nope. Can't go by that. Seen how Obamacare went through the court today. It isn't what something actually says, it is how they want to interpret it.

    That would be the risk that carriers aren't likely to take unless there is a surplus of drivers and trucks. If hypothetically Panther decided to do this, I would have no issue having the trucks pulled by the end of the week. Too many other carriers want our fleets services.

    Welfare reform

    To some degree they did and continue even now. The other side with regards to manufacturing changed a lot due to a global economy. Lot of foreign competition for a lot of things and unions basically priced themselves out of the market.

    Welfare reform

    Welfare reform

    Well you know when you throw money at it, the problem gets worse. You know this because we never had these problems at the level they are now 20 years ago, and very little got thrown at it then.
