New Jersey bill seeks help of truckers in reporting suspicious activity

New Jersey bill seeks help of truckers in reporting suspicious activity
Quote:
Truck drivers are all too familiar with being the targets of legislative action. But an effort on the move at the New Jersey statehouse bucks that apparent trend.

A bill awaiting a floor vote before the full Senate would make an exception from the state’s cell phone law for truck drivers to assist in national security efforts. Assembly lawmakers already approved a similar version.

The use of CBs and two-way radios would be exempt from the state’s ban on hand-held communication devices while behind the wheel. They could be used by truck drivers to assist law enforcement efforts and communicate vital information while on the job. Operators of emergency vehicles also would be granted special privilege.

So you mean people are banned from using 911 while driving as it is now? I can't even describe how stupid that is.

More likely it's just another exuse to pull over a truckdriver and withdraw some $ out of those 18 wheel ATMs. cuz we make so much money and there is nothing else to spend it on!!!

OSHA rules prevent climbing on the trailer without 1. fall protection 2. safety rails. 3. Boom lift then still need harness in the boom.
