Summary: A truck driver opposes the mandate for Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) systems, citing personal experience where the device malfunctioned and nearly caused a crash. The commenter argues that the government should focus on improving driver education, enforcing existing laws, and requiring better communication tools like CB radios instead of adding more regulations.
I have driven a truck with one of those junk devices and it almost made me crash 3 times so I disconected it drove for another month and quit the company, The truck I had was a brand new 2015 Cascadia with a damn automatic in it too which you can also shove it you know where!!!
Instead of makeing EAB manditory in trucks why dont you make it manditory that all trucks have a CB in them and make it manditory that ALL DRIVERS CAN SPEAK AND READ FLUENT ENGLISH just like the pilots that fly have to and they have to have radios too!!
These huge companys are hireing friggen IDIOTS today, I see it every day they're driveing with there feet up on the dash (with the cruise on im sure) or playing with there damn phone or they are just plain FN STUPID!! Theres just plain out right no more common sence out here any more and that goes for the 4 wheelers as well, which on another note these driver ED classes being tought need to be updated to more training and stricker rules to them about driveing near or around trucks and LEARN HOW TO FN MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY!!! I dont care if its a car or a truck already on the highway they dont have to do a damn thing!! The one mergeing does!!
On another note we have to go through DOT checks here and there in every state, ya outa check out some of them damn 4 wheelers too, rideing around in the pourin rain and no lights on (which most states have a law on that) But NOT ENFORCED, same as the MOVE OVER LAW, today 7/12/23 I blew a trailer tire on I79 in PA, I pulled to the side far enough so I didnt get stuck but they had some extra room to change the tire, while they wher changeing the tire I was watching traffic and a bunch of vehicles did NOT MOVE OVER INCLUDEING A PA STATE TROOPER!!!!
YOU ALREADY HAVE WAY TO MANY REGS ON US, ITS TIME TO START EDUCATEING PEOPLE AGAIN NOT JUST GIVE THEM A CRACKER JACKS BOX WITH A LICENCE!!!!!
