UPS has started delivering packages on 45 routes in Northern California, saving them in the neighborhood of $50,000 in fuel and maintenance (and likely more in health care costs over time).
SFist.com has the story and gets credit for the photo.
Now, we’ll just have to see if CA comes up with a “special delivery” tax since they’re not getting their revenue from all that saved fuel. It certainly wouldn’t be the most ridiculous thing they’ve done to keep from going totally broke.
