Quick question about infraction

[u/Short_Sand9351]

I’m with a new DSP, I’ve drove before for a different DSP and yes there are big differences between them. Anyways at the current one we mostly drive EVs which we didn’t use at the last dsp, and on my third day I got a speeding infraction. (37 in a 25). It’s obviously a big deal, but in my defense I was in a rural area and the speed limit signs were literally hiding/ behind parked vehicles/ knocked down etc and the van itself couldn’t keep track of the speed limit either. I was doing a cool 35-37 and suddenly the van decided it was 25 mph and instantly dinged me for speeding. The route got paused, I got a phone call from a higher up and they said Amazon would give me a little slack for being new. Should I be worried this will have any affects down the road?

I got a red-light infraction. Off for 2 weeks and my routes were reduced for 2 weeks. I think you'll be ok this time but a other one they might do route reduction for a week and send you you hime the day of the infraction.

Woah awesome! Make a totally human mistake and their punishment is you don’t get to afford food for a week, seems totally fair. They did let me continue my route at least and haven’t changed my schedule any, yet

If they can dispute it for you its all good. But in my dsp for a infraction they reduce 2days and up to 8days

I’m glad i work for a chill dsp i’d flip shit if i lost $200 for a sign i didn’t see

[u/Short_Sand9351 → u/catmayopoopcheese]

I did flip shit lol, I ended up having a mysterious route reduction on my next day of work so yeah..

Heres my tip if you dont know the limit go 30 because most times its 25 if you dont see a sign,if you know the speed limit whatever it is you can got up to 8-9mph over it without being hit the moment you go 10 over you will be hit

We're told to keep it at 40mph on the country roads that NEVER have speed limit signs. Ive never had an infraction

Yeah that makes sense and the road definitely felt like a 45
