Riiight. The seatbelt would have solved everything. Kind of like a helmet allows motorcyclists to walk away from every crash, unscathed.Because you don't wear your seatbelt?
Disciplinary action already....in cab cameras.

Wow, this is the first I’m hearing of this. Are the cameras inward facing into the cab? Are they only going to be viewed by mgmt if there is an issue on road or they can pop them up anytime and snoop on you?

Yes

Not my point. If any of us got t-boned on the driver's side at high speed, doors closed, seat belt on -- it's not going to be pretty. Of course. That's not a reason to be lax about wearing the belt. In many circumstances it's more important than a biker's "brain bucket"

I don’t know this, but this isn’t the first time I’ve seen FedEx drivers riding dirty. Seems common as if the company doesn’t enforce things.

Lot's of folks drive without seatbelts....including UPS'ers.
So, how do you know they don't"enforce" things?

What UPSers are driving around without their seatbelts in their package cars, or feeders? My cousin in California works for FedEx ground for a contractor, safety is pretty lax depending on the contractor.

They get caught pretty quick with telematics. If they keep it buckled all day and sit on it, that would be evident. If they never buckle it, that would be evident.

Maybe once. It’s not a general practice because we have sensors and you really can’t get away with it even if you wanted to. Are you saying they are?. We had a case at panel this winter or some dumb driver,
Had buckled his seatbelt and sat on top of it management followed him he does not have a job anymore. Same goes for the bulkhead door that that driver had in that video open. You can get away with anything once and that’s about it at UPS.

I don’t know what the point he’s trying to make is other than to be his general disagreeable self. Lol

Asking a question like his really makes you wonder if the guy ever actually worked for ups.

I get asked sometimes why I moved 6 feet without a seatbelt much less drive around without it all day. Sorry boss I guess I didn’t get it clicked

I don’t know what your point is.
Lots of people do indeed drive without their seatbelts, such as the guy in the video.
I said it seems like they don’t because I’ve seen quite a bit of their drivers riding without seatbelts.
I’m not even gonna go there with UPS’ers and their seatbelt usage.
My hub takes that very seriously.

Well, point is folks drive without their seatbelt....including UPS'ers....evidenced by terminations.
"Seems" could be applied to UPS also.....as people keep getting fired for it.
Not hard to believe this happens at Fed Ex too. Terminations....

Deranged lunatic
The thing with building cameras is they do not single out any one person. You'd have to crop and cut the video in hysterical fashion to form harassment of a single employee. Inward facing cameras on the other hand are literally formatted like selfies. The ability to single out and harass one driver is built into the recording format.
