Rules of the road

Rules of the road

9/9/07
Charleston Post Courier, SC
Quote:
Forgive the region's truckers if they're feeling a little, well, picked on right now.
A number of rule changes coming down the road are likely to have significant implications for the industry.
They include changes to the maximum hours drivers can work in a day, impending federal identification requirements and efforts to curb speeding tractor-trailers.
It's enough to drive the most experienced trucker around the bend.
Barring a last-minute legal challenge, beginning Friday, the number of hours long-haul drivers can spend behind the wheel will be cut from 11 hours a day to 10. The decrease could hurt productivity, drivers say, and eventually hit consumers in their wallets.

The media is owned lock stock and barrel by a hand full of individuals with a grand agenda. Do a Google search of (major media owners) and you will start to realize we are being manipulated.

KMPH is locally owned. Not one of the huge conglomorates. They are the one station I can count on to be on top of ANY issue, the vast majority of the time.
