Why do drivers have this elitist attitude?

[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5170086, member: 77939"] Read my reply carefully.... Now, a teachable moment if you please.... With my receding respect..... Declined a trip to the hospital......wow. How do you know? Well....a great but pretty easy solution.....all loads must have load retainers(actually deployed)! See? Now, this is no GUARANTEE. Granted. But with load retainers being eliminated, odds of getting hurt are greatly increased. This is why the determination they are not required was a bad day for all UPS'ers. So, there was no discussion from anyone about what happened, fault(blame), prevention etc.? I can only assume, speculate based on what you've supplied. You did seem to laugh about it (lol) I believe). Here, the only discussion was "You've been instructed on how to open a door away from you.....". I would like to see the Hub made responsible for door opening safety. Your question is a good one that should be addressed on a National level. I will say, I've encountered(at work) many people like yourself. Who just seem to look the other way or yes, shrug. It is odd to me. How so many people could be so united in looking the other way from safety and security. I do wonder how you would have felt (if possible) if you would had been disfigured or medically retired? Or your Family? [/QUOTE]
