I still have a bad taste in my mouth from having to plug a unit into the OBDII port of a company truck that I used to work for. All the sales guys had to do it and the thing would flag anything that it deemed to be unexceptionable driving habits. In my part of the world, highways are wide open with not much traffic and everything is a long ways away. If you want to get anything done, you have to put the coal to it at times. I was like hmm, this thing looks defective. It turns out 2 seconds in a microwave takes care of most undesirable electronics. My company was slow to react to about anything, so it took them 5 months to get me a new one.

Every Monday morning we had a company Teams meeting and the boss would start the meeting going over everyone's infractions for the previous week. Always set the tone for a great meeting.

My biggest problem was, I would get infractions for not having a seat belt on. I was like WTF, I always wear my seat belt. I tuned out I was getting nailed in hotel parking lots. I always buckled up just before I hit the main road, but was getting nailed in the fricken parking lot.

Fast forward, I was riding with my boss and saw what I called "the big brother 1000" fall out and hit the floor. It didn't have a real tight fit, so it was always working itself loose. He saw it happen so I chimed in with, that happens all the time with this POS. I would reach down and unplug it, if I knew I was going to have to pass on a two lane. A lot of times in order to pass a couple of big rigs, I would have to floor it to get by in time resulting in hitting a 100 plus for a brief moment. I did the same thing on long road trips. If I'm driving 500-600 miles a day with a few cars on the highway, I would get after it. Not crazy crazy, but always over the limit.

Bottom line, I'm not going to have a microscope voluntarily shoved up my ass if I don't have to.
