LLVs are wonderful Warm in the summer, cool in the winter, and wet when it rains.
Just another day in the Post Office!
death traps!
The wiring is exposed, the windshield leak almost as bad as a screen door, fuel lines clog, the damn LLV’s stay in a constant state of disrepair. If I were the NALC officer in this town, I’d be filing a safety grievance big time and demanding complete replacement of the fleet much sooner than their eight to nine year projections, which is bullshit because once that contract is awarded, a factory can churn out vehicles by the dozens on a daily basis, maybe more.
Article 14 of the NALC/USPS contract states that management must adhere to all safety regulations and immediately remove threats to bodily harm. They are not doing it, instead wasting money on high tech shit like GPS scanners that doesn’t work. A grievance like this would have to go to national for an interpretive binding resolution that I doubt the NALC headquarters gives a rat’s ass about, but it will at least show we are sick of driving death traps. I encourage branches all over the country to file safety grievances on LLV’s. Flood the damn system until Headquarters takes up the fight.
Looks like they need to start having fire extinguishers on board.
I brought that idea up yrs. ago and that’s a no cuz OSHA would mandate yearly training say 15 min. on how to use them and when you multiply that by # of people who use them u run into large financial cost. Of course we used to watch a 10-20 min safety video once per month but that ended at least 7 yrs ago. They make the HCR’s carry them.
