Hi Derrick!
Yes, everything is working great! The only problem I was having
was that I kept bumping the knob, but I figured out a way to take
care of that. I got myself a tube of silicone, and after I set the
knob, I squirt some silicone RTV under the corner of the knob and
let it dry. Now it doesnt move and if I have to I can just peel it
out, reset it, and squeeze a little more in there.
The safety pass pro is great! Before, I couldn't stand being
without it. Now, it's the best tool on the truck!
In doing the math, just by bringing the truck to the speed limit
(3mph for me) thats 30 extra miles in a 10 hour shift. It pays for
itself in 10 days. For me, the first time I actually used it, I
had a load that was preloaded. The trailer had issues and made me
run behind. If I had to run at the governors set speed, I never
would have made it. Having the safety pass, I was able to run at
the speed limit, get to my drop, get rid of that stupid trailer
and get another load. So, it actually paid for itself on the first
use :)
Thanks for everything! Keep up the good work, your a lifesaver!
I'll be sure to recommend you to others. - USA

Thank you for your e-mail. I had your
device installed by my mecanic (in my home shop). He thinks this
device is a brillant invention (of course, so do I). On my 07
Kenworth, I have spare
toggle switches with hydro. I bought a cig lighter plug,
wired it to a spare switch, pre set the device to around 103 kph and
siliconed the adjust knob so it would not move. It is installed in
the dash. Out of sight, out of mind.
The switch is right at my finger tips-easy off, easy on and
it shuts off with the key.I ve checked for heat build up and the
inside of the dash is vented good. It took me a couple of days to
learn how to use it and when to use it and I can honestly say it
helps me get up those rolling hills of ky and tn much easier. Thanks
for your interest Derrick I ll keep you up dated on how im doing. -

Ok
Derrick, It's time to get busy and come up with a SafetyPassPro for
automatics. I bought one from you about four years ago and what a
blessing it's been. Now I'm in a 2010 Peterbilt with a fully
automatic Cummins
engine & can't use my SafetyPass anymore! Talk about close
calls! Too many too count and only in a couple of weeks.
Come on, times are a changin' and I need to get
goin'. I know you can do it! But hurry. I'm in a totally
different world of professional driving without the advantage of my
SafetyPassPro! - USA

06/22/09
Hey Derrick,
Thanks for the reply. After dishing out some money getting some RCA
extensions, I got the device to reach the cab. However, my device
still didn't work.
As I crawled under the truck to get the type of transmission my
truck has I looked around in depseration hoping I had perhaps gotten
the wrong sensor. Would you believe that I had the device plugged
into the front drive axle? Wow! I noticed the transmission directly
under the cab and hooked up to that.
The length is perfect I didn't need any extensions and most of all I
am up to speed!
Thanks very much man. Its time to get home early enough to chase my
wife around the house!
I apologize for being a goof.
Take care. - USA

hi derrick, thanks for the
xmas card all the best to you and your family .......thanks
to you we were able to have a xmas on time this year- my wife and
i drive .approx. 8400 km a week. We have stretches where for 1-2
hours you don't have any traffic etc. The device is easy to fit
and once its tuned its just so simple. Fuel is a 100 litres more
-that's acceptable. There is very little fatigue as all senses are
aware. Once again thanks. - AUS

I just wanted to
say thanks for creating such a fine product. This unit is what
I`ve been looking for and it works perfectly. Thank you, thank
you, and thank you so very much, peace. - USA

11/20/08
Just wanted to
let you know just how impressed I am with Safety Pass Pro. I've
been using it for about 6 months now and It was the best money I
ever spent! No problems rounding up all those slow ass cars that
sit about 10 Kms under the limit now! It's made my job far less
stressfull and can really wake you up if your tired and want a
burst for a while. I can't thank you enough. It took about 5 mins
to install and It works great! - AUS

Since the introduction of
speed limiters in Aus the number of drivers falling asleep
at the wheel and crashing has leapt into the stratosphere. That
combined with the fact that these regulations have driven many of
the real ‘pro operators’ out of the industry and seen them
replaced with inexperienced goons makes our hi-ways more dangerous
than ever!
On that note,
I must thank you for your device saving my life recently.
Literally. I was involved in a dangerous situation (caused by a
car) which resulted in a multi vehicle fatality. Thanks to the
safety pass pro I was able to pass the trucks involved and witness
the whole thing in my rear view mirror!
The driver of the truck that I
passed seconds before was sadly killed in the collision. That
would have been me, making the device the best money I ever spent.
That was a big shock to me and has only strengthened my resolve to
rely on my own instincts rather than regulations to keep it safe.
I don’t consider myself a ‘cowboy’ but I want to drive the truck,
not just steer it and hope for the best. - AUS

HEY DERRICK, THX 4 THE INFO,U HAVE A GREAT PRODUCT,HAPPY

hi, just a quick note to say
everything is working good and the unit makes the job more
enjoyable and fun like it used to be. - USA
|
08/18/08
Thanks for a great product that
works and is well made. It saves me between one and two hours per
day by just staying close to the
speed limit.
When a company turns down a
truck so low that you dread going to work, its time to find a new
line of work or do something about it. I have more than twenty five years driving
experience with over three
million miles and no accidents. After turning down the
truck, my close calls more than doubled.
Turning down a truck
looks good on paper, but it creates more problems than it solves.
For any drivers still thinking about getting a safetypass pro. It
works very well, and the time you save it will pay for itself in a
week. The stress and aggravation you save is priceless. -

First let me
thank you for all of your help on getting the box to work. The MP
280 adapter was exactly what I needed. Second I LOVE THIS
THING...... Thanks - USA
|
06/22/08
Thanks for this!
I was hesitant to order at first but it honestly was the best buck
I spent in my 10 year driving career.
Now I don't have to hear older drivers telling me to "take my
time" and be slow and safe, when I can pace myself at any speed. We are drivers, not wheel
holders, and not babies!
I also can get home faster if needed, like many
four wheelers do, if need be.
It's a cut-throat industry and if you have an angle on other
drivers not willing to help another, than keep it to yourself and
haul ass with the safety pass pro! - USA

06/12/08
hi i would like to

01/20/08
Folks this thing just works
period, if you are tired of everybody harassing you every time you
attempt to pass another truck, then the
SafetyPass Pro if for you. We can now
make our deliveries on time and still have time to stop and eat a
decent meal. - USA
|
11/06/07
we just wanted to say thank you for being
a very honest person,and sorry for taking so long to order but you
just dont no who you can trust.we will have plenty more orders for
you.and thank you for letting us order this item from you.you just
cant find it just any where thats for sure.thanx once again. - USA

10/30/07
My wife and I team drive coast to coast and our
truck would top out at 64 and when I installed the SafetyPass Pro
on the truck we cut a ton of time off. We cruise at about 75-76
and make up about 200 miles per 24 hr day vs that turtle like 64.
This device works and it is absolutely a life saver for getting
more rest because you can do the speed limit and pass safely. You
guys are our heros and I gotta say the absolute best tech support
I have ever seen. So look for a lot more orders the word is out
and folks are wanting your product. - USA
|
09/25/07
Thanks for a great product, I have been using my current pro
for a couple of years now and love every minute and mph it has
provided. - USA
|
07/03/07
I just want to say this thing works just as
described and has added features such as being able to idle all
day during the heat and not showing up on your idle time!!! Not to
mention the ability to drive 75mph interstate at +or-5 mph of
course, AT THE SPEED LIMIT!!!!! No matter what your company!!!!
And let me tell you, an unbridled 400atx cummins is a different
beast! The difference in the hills is not a mere 10-20mph, I'm
telling u i can crest a hill at up to 75% faster with this
device!!!!! Rap up a cummins 2 1800 or so going into a hill and
see how far she pulls!!!! - USA
|
06/25/07
I use this thing to make quick, clean, safe passes of
slower vehicles. It KICKS ASS! I just flip a switch and right away I got
80 mph. When I'm done passing I turn it off and I'm back to my 65 cruise
speed. It takes a lot of the risk out of passing. Sometimes I used to
get stuck out in the hammer lane when I was trying to pass somebody that
keeps speeding up when I get along side of them and faster traffic is
coming up behind me. This used to be an impossible situation for me
until I got this device. Now it's a piece of cake. I would highly
recommend all career drivers get this device to make passing safer and
less stressful. - USA
|
05/15/07
I've been using the speed increaser device for
almost a year now. I can tell you, there is nothing like being
able to flip a switch and power up to 80 mph so I pass. I run alot
of two lane road and before I got this thing I just had suck it up
and stay behind slow, novice truck drivers that were not trained
good. Now I just blow by them, no hassle, no stress and a hell of
alot safer for oncoming traffic. I also use it to get a run for
hills. It makes a big difference hitting the bottom of a saddle at
maximum speed, I just go right up the other side in half the time.

I did a permanent wiring installation on my
truck, a 1998 Freightliner Columbia. I've been using the device
for about 3 months now. I ran the wire harness through the
firewall by drilling a half inch hole directly above the throttle
pedal and routing the RCA plugs under the cup holder. The
installation looks factory and everything matches perfectly. The
trucks been in the shop for service several times for normal crap
and no one has said a thing. The device has been working great and
I am really glad I have it. The thing I really like about it is
that it is fully adjustable and you can use the speedometer to set
it. It makes it easy to make up any lost mileage and the computer
and speedometer are always in sinc. - USA
|
03/26/07
Cool device! Before I installed this thing I
had the Slowest truck on the road, Swift even blew off the road. I
used to get pissed off when they would get to close to me while
passing. Now it's the other way around I can cruise at 70, no
problem. I can make it across Nevada in about 8 hrs. now and it
used to take me 10 hrs. This thing's really easy to operate to, a
one touch speed machine. Way to Go! - USA
|
03/15/07
One thing that used to burn me up was when I
would come up behind a car that I had been creeping up on for the
last 20 miles and just before I was ready to change changes to
pass, they would match my speed and then start slowing down just
enough so I would be following to close. When I got in the fast
lane they would match my speed again and then fast traffic would
be coming up behind me so I would have to turn off the cruise
control and slow down until I the way was clear to get around
idiot. What a bunch of HORSE S*IT!!! This Safety Pass device is
like a present from god! It solved my problem slick and easy. When
I come up behind somebody now and they start playing games, I just
push the button and put it to the floor and blow their f**kin'
doors off. I've been running this thing for about 6 months now and
haven't had a speck of trouble with it, it's always there when I
need it! - USA
|
01/10/07
I pull 3 trailers, each 28 FEET in length, grossing 120,000
Pounds. I use the device to get my cruise control to work when I'm
climbing steep hills under 30 MPH, when it would normally shut
off. Then I would have to hold my foot to the floor all the way to
the top of the hill. This device takes away a lot of the stress
assiociated with driving big trucks. - USA
|
12/18/06
I've had one of these devices for over a year
now and it has always worked in a flawless manner. I use it for
passing people that left there brains in the last town. LOL.
All it does it makes it like your driving a car, just put it to
the floor when you need more speed. You can also put some distance
between yourself and the idiots on the road. - USA
|
12/05/06
Hey, Great invention! I love this thing! It
only took me about 15 or 20 minutes to do a permanent installation
and it was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. I just
ran it up through the sleeper floor and between the floor mat and
sleeper wall all the way to dash. You can't even tell it's there
and underneath the wiring looks factory made, it matches perfect
to the other wires.
I have QualComm with SensorTracs and used to hate it when the #*@%ing
thing would start beeping as soon as I got over 65 mph like when I
was going down a hill or something and a few times the boss would
chew me out for going over 70. Now I can cruise at 75 and they
can't tell how fast I'm going and Qualcomm transmits only what I
tell it to and I haven't heard a word from the boss since I
installed it 8 months ago. I try not to leave it on all the time
because they might notice a severe drop in fuel mileage but I do
use it when I need to. It takes a lot of the stress out of
driving. Keep up the good work! - USA
|
12/01/06
This things great only took half hour to do
permanent installation on my Kenworth C15 Cat, now my truck flys!
I'm grossing 68 tone an doing 140kmh, for you U.S.A guys i think
that 120,000 lb at 80mph!! - Australia
|
10/14/06
I HOOKED IT UP REAL EASY AND FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTION AND IT WORKS
GREAT. I CANT BELEIVE HOW MUCH SAFER I FEEL HAVING SOME CONTROL. I
TRIED IT WHEN I NEEDED TO PASS ANOUTHER RIG AND THIS TIME I DIDNT HAVE
A BUNCH OF CARS AND TRUCKS PILEING UP BEHIND ME, PLUS I DIDIN'T GET THE
FINGER AND THE USUAL HURRY IT UP TRUCK ON THE CB.F*#+*# AWESOME DEVICE!!!!
UN PLUGED THE DEVICE WHEN TRUCK WENT INTO SHOP, HAVEN'T HEARD A THING ABOUT
ANYTHING. THE $279 IS WELL WORTH IT, ACTUALLY CHEAP IN MY BOOK.
THANKS - Canada
