    Well the whole bit about backing out the nut is to cause it to fail in a manner that looks more like a maintenance problem and not a driver problem. Even when stuff like that only happens on one cab, it’s not enough to point at a singular driver.

    And yeah all of that advice comes with the rider that “you may be unemployable” afterwards.

      Yeah I get that. But you aren’t clever and you aren’t the first one to think about that.

      We will catch you

        Eh, that’s never true. Some people will be caught. And the typical person who gets their CDL only works a few years before they realize the industry sucks for drivers and burnout.

          I’m not going to claim a 100% catch rate, because that’s impractical.

          But we absolutely do frequently fire drivers for tampering with their trackers. Theres about 15 layers of checks and balances preventing a driver from disconnecting or otherwise disabling it.
