    I don't know if deaf people are allowed to drive a commercial vehicle, but we all know that dumb people are more than welcome.

    It's my understanding that blind people cannot serve on the battlefield as well. It's not "fair" to some, but although my pretend situation there in that sentence is beyond obvious, driving deaf in the cab of a large vehicle takes only a slightly less amount of common sense to understand why that is not a good idea as well... It is what it is.

    It's not about being "fair", it's about being safe.

    I will buy some raggedy trucks, hire homeless people with CDL's, and pay them .10 cpm.

    I'll be rich in no time.

    I am not deaf nor am I hearing impaired. I'm just married. It's a defence mechanism.:biggrin_25525::biggrin_2559:

    I'm a little confused here. Wolfchopper, if you have already decided that you know the answer to your question then why did you ask the members of this forum? You were given the law yet you say "no". Obviously you believe you know the answer so why even ask?
