Common Sense would much more effective, save more lives, and be much more cost efficient.
We cannot and will not be able to engineer out all accidents and or incidents. We must hold
people accountable for their driving actions no matter the equipment. Posted speed limits are
set for a reason, they are to be followed, we again cannot prevent or engineer our human
error. There is no set point A to B in any driving situation as there is always another driver,
obstacle, or event that creates the situation. If it is to windy don't drive over 35 mph, if you are
drunk don't get behind the wheel, if you are tired don't drive, use my common sense approach,
be responsible for your actions and don't try to over engineering everything, not all can be
truck drivers, not all can be pilots, not all can drive a car, don't over think this. Save the
trucking fleet several million dollars and come up with deceleration devices for posted speed
limits and make the company responsible for the actions as well as the driver. We must simply
stop the LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY we have been living with. If you are going to drive a truck,
be the best truck driver you can be! ACCOUNTABILITY,ACCOUNTABILITY. I am an automotive
service tech. by trade, overengineering is not the answer it is the rot of all evil, lack of
communicaiton!!!!!
