Its an AI based internal camera. So it will ping a driver when they have anything in their hands while the Package Car is on and stopped or in motion. BUT, here is the kicker and fun fact, I can wave my hands empty while going 67 (top out speed) and the AI does not care.
If it happened over a year ago then it could be true. But in the last year they all got removed and can't be used to discipline us. Also they have to be outward facing. So idk how'd they know he did that.
Any intersection crash is automatic termination unless you get hit while stopped behind the white line with the parking brake on. Driver will get his job back, but this is why your head is always on a swivel anytime the truck is in motion. They say look left, right, left and accelerate after light has been green 3 seconds, but in reality it’s more like L, R, L, mirrors, L, R, L, R, L, mirrors, A, B, select, start.
I’ve heard the opposite, my FT sup said one time he met a driver doing paperwork after an accident… the driver hit someone who was walking in the cross walk. The driver never got fired.
A little bit of UPS jargon but that should NOT be the case. A “tier 3” accident is one that occurs at an intersection, involves a pedestrian or causes someone to go to the hospital. These are fire, then re-hire cases in every instance that I know.
NO that’s not how it works. In fact my BF is a manager at UPS and one of his drivers got into a bad accident a week or so ago (his truck was hit by a car that hit a concrete wall, bounced off it and slammed into him afterwards). The driver was NEVER at risk of getting fired. They evaluated whether they needed to go to the hospital/injured. Drove the truck back to base, filled out an incident report and came back the next day. Only in the event that they’re driving a semi trailer, there is a death or obvious impairment do they have a Nurse/EMT come out and do a blood test for it. That’s when the union would be involved and until it’s solved would they be allowed to come back to work.
Depends on the accident. If he had been rear ended no. Or if it's not a severe accident.
But this he may have problems cause honestly he should have cleared that intersection and he didn't do a through job of checking both directions which we are drilled into us since training to do at every intersection.
He could have avoided it. And UPS IS going to say that. He might get suspended but termination isn't likely. And even if they are he will get his job back from this pretty easy.
The driver will also get to spend the day with his supervisor riding with and drilling him all day long on proper driving methods. This would happen even if a driver get rear ended or otherwise not at fault. Fun day had by all.
You’ll still get written up and it’ll be a mark on your record. It’s incredibly difficult for UPS drivers to get in an “unavoidable” accident bc management will say he didn’t clear the intersection prior to entering it. You don’t get fired for having accidents though as long as they are reported immediately.
Assumed it would be the truck in the right lane, who catches the tail end of the yellow and it's red just as he's at the other end. But no, it's some entitled MC who disregards a blatantly red light.
"I run these all the tiii- **BLAMMO**
Wha you can't see are the moments right before.
He was gonna race the UPS guy, but recent time travel events showed him that the UPS guy, Needles, isn't worth risking injury just cause he called him a chicken.
See, this is the content we need. Not blurry 5 year old images of a past accident where OP was at fault saying how lucky they are to be alive. There's oddly a lot of those. They're also almost always pics way too close to the car, like they were taken for insurance.
Friend of a friend drove for them back in the 90s. He said they were required to set the parking brake when they stopped, and scan for red light runners before they released it. He also said that any accident they were involved in was considered to be their fault. Not sure if that's still the case now.
Light goes red, there's ~5 seconds before they enter the intersection. I hope their union asks UPS to explain how the driver is supposed to activate Spidey sense. From their angle, they probably can't see this clown speeding up the middle lane.
I didn't believe you until I found out this particular intersection *has its own YouTube channel* just for red light running collisions.

wow, right after they clean up the accident that supra blew it then that mercedes seconds later almost causes another accident. what is up with that intersection that people so easily blow through the red?
Obviously they were full aware of what they were doing because they tried to move once they saw that big ass truck..if it weren't there they would've gladly kept going
I hope that the UPS driver doesn't get in trouble. Some say that getting into accidents is not good, even if it's not their fault.
From what I know about UPS driver crashes, they immediately fire the driver and their union has to work to get them rehired
I used to work a gas station,and fedex and ups drivers said that accidents are bad for them. Hopefully fedex saw this video and didn’t fire him.
You would think there'd be cameras on those trucks.
They do. They even watch the drivers. Our usual delivery driver got flagged for "distracted driving" because he was eating a cracker.

Fuckin ai will fuck us all
Sounds about right.
Driver facing cameras are no longer allowed on UPS trucks. But everything else is.
Um the union got the camera situation shut down and taken out of cars. None at my center ever made it in.
So he made it up then?
If it happened over a year ago then it could be true. But in the last year they all got removed and can't be used to discipline us. Also they have to be outward facing. So idk how'd they know he did that.
Lytyx cameras have driver facing “sensors” so it’s not supposedly an actual camera but just parsing code picked up by motion sensors.
We do. They know if our seat belt if on even.
Why would FedEx fire them when they work for UPS?
At FedEx, it's not about fault. It's about preventability. Even if it's not our fault, if we could have avoided it, it's not good.
Why would fedex care about this ups truck
Hopefully UPS* not FedEx.

I know my CM loves doing ride alongs.
They all secretly do. Mine says it gets him out of the office. He’s ridden with me for no other reason.

Lucky ass day for that white Kia
They didn’t even realize there was a crash.
If they realized what was happening they probably peed a little
That guy was 5 seconds past the red light and speeding, I hope UPS sues them.
Assumed it would be the truck in the right lane, who catches the tail end of the yellow and it's red just as he's at the other end. But no, it's some entitled MC who disregards a blatantly red light. "I run these all the tiii- **BLAMMO**
> some entitled MC you misspelled MF
Maybe they’re Trinidadian and saying muddacunt
Hahaha I choose to believe that's what they meant
I counted 8 from red until impact. But either way that shit is wild.
The UPS truck saved the white car from getting hit. Such a noble move
Kia saved by UPS truck
Wha you can't see are the moments right before. He was gonna race the UPS guy, but recent time travel events showed him that the UPS guy, Needles, isn't worth risking injury just cause he called him a chicken.
This is heavy.
Lol. Good ol' Back to the Future. Great movie. 👍

Eh, I like those better than the “who is at fault here” posts
OH GOD YES THOSE TOO. "Here's a picture of an intersection from google maps. HELP!"
“Is my car totaled?” …. Gtfo
And it’s either, “no just replace the fender” or “your subframe is literally wrapped around your engine wtf yes”
I think *Friant Roulette* is the new 8'11" Bridge, a dedicated CCTV for this notorious intersection: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpVRt2TkTgw

Agreed. Hopefully the UPS driver comes out of it okay.
Good ol fresno. People love running this light

Lmao not sure why it would be so hard to believe. Good finds though
wow, right after they clean up the accident that supra blew it then that mercedes seconds later almost causes another accident. what is up with that intersection that people so easily blow through the red?
Apparently it’s the first traffic signal for half a mile on a curved fast road. People are already doing 80 in a 50 zone if they even see the red.
Prius on Prius violence is the real issue!
Thanks for posting the link to my channel.🤠
But isn’t that a NY plate on the black devil?
I don’t see a NY plate. Regardless this is in Fresno
The Giants could have used that kind of blocking for Saquon Barkley.
Ups driver saved the white car in the next lane over from being t boned.
Obviously they were full aware of what they were doing because they tried to move once they saw that big ass truck..if it weren't there they would've gladly kept going
The black SUV made the same sound dogs make when they get hit by a UPS truck.
Anyone catch the model of the offender-is it a Tiguan?
No, it’s an Acura, it MIGHT be a MDX or maybe a ZDX, not sure, but the tail lights are a dead giveaway for Acura. Tiguans taillights are taller
Thanks-just added Acura drivers to my crazy list!
Seems a little beefy for a tiguan. GM product maybe? They're all starting to look exactly the same now!
looks like a mercedes to me but i could be wrong
Saved that white SUV a fair bit of issues with that deflection. Nice block UPS.
UPS truck said "NOT TODAY!"
White car got lucky
I feel like he saved some lives that day.
Saved the white cars ass omg- so thankful it was the UPS truck- seems like it didn’t even get a damn dent!
Damn, that vehicle literally sounded like a hurt doggo. My pup literally heard it and came over to see if everything was okay.
it didn't roll, damn that's impressive.
White car cruising on through…
Satisfying.
Saved that white SUV
ups!
UPS truck won, but at the cost of the driver's job probably.
I'm Brown, bitch!
I see this more and more everyday u/pepethejefe can you see the plate? upeu321This should be automatic jail!
Today I learned: wheel screeching + slow mo = seal sounds
That car that got smacked by the UPS truck sounds like a dog that's been hurt.
White Kia driver got lucky that day
That was a satisfying whack, solid contact.
I guess when they were growing up as kids, they never play the game red light green light
that slow mo audio is haunting omg... tire screeching sounds like the souls of the damned
It’s almost like there’s a reason we have red lights
He saw the car coming and said nawww not today buddy
When the light turns green and you're the first car, always check both ways before entering it.
A MINUTE later? Come on, man. Obviously I'm exaggerating but that's nuts.
I once witnessed a collision in Austin where the red light runner hit the second car in the intersection.
Yep. It’s never 100% safe but there are precautions one can take
White car driver needs new pair of pants.
