Well it's been confirmed today that one of the lads in one of the new vans has been pulled into the office and accused of speeding!.
They showed him a print out that gave road names and speeds of where he had been the previous day. He was accused of doing 38mph on a road that they know has a 30 limit :shock: .
I think that most of the lads will vote with their feet when they hear about this :x .

1) See my post regarding entrapment - unless he was informed of it being fitted, they can't make it stick (unless Plod caught him)
2) There are enough folk out there prepared to drive vans - it ain't much of a threat
3) If he was speeding - tough luck on him, he ought to be more careful :wink: If it was my name on the Operators lisence, I'd be asking a few pointed questions, too.
cheers

Exactly what they did to us.. we ran totally legally for a while..and it screwed them up a treat with late deliveries, health and safety issues being acted upon instead of being ignored, food hygene rules being enforced by us...but most of all the road speeds... we all drove steadily, no rapid acceleration, and at 37 mph...to be safe.. and slower in the rain..they soon got the message......

all our vehicles here are tracked live 24/7. everybody knows that vehicles are monitored and we also have very strict driver training & safety policies.
we also have the ability to monitor various vehicle functions eg door locks, windows, lights, wipers etc as well as live audio. as a general rule howver because of the data transmission problems almost all the time this is downloaded back at a base for automated analysis.
yes it stinks of big brother, but in the security industry sometimes real-time monitoring of vehicles is useful, otherwise the data is routinely junked unless we have other issues with a driver such as an accident or traffic conviction

We are not just van drivers, we are all Corgi Qualified Gas Fitters which are in short supply at the moment.
