Court: UPS wrong to bar deaf delivery drivers

Even small cars have blind spots. A child can easily hide below your rear window.

An aunt accidentaly killed a boy like that. It was a redlight with a slope (probably a good 20-30º), a homeless kid accidentally dropped something below the car and he went there to get it. She didn't see it, the green light turned on, the rear bumper hit his head and killed him.

We're not discussing the rear of the vehicle. At least I'm not. I'm talking the sides because you can't see out of the back of a delivery van anyway.

Hence, the need to be able to hear. One couldn't hear over a tractor but most delivery vehicles have gas engines.

Not the ones I've driven...

Here's an idea...Don't walk around the back of a delivery van with the motor running. Then you won't need to yell. :grinyes:
