It’s not safety, or traffic or any #### thing else but revenue and control. More level 3 inspections than any other.....tell me wtf could possibly cause a safety issue if your paperwork isn’t in order? How does an unpaid UCR make you safer? Or even a base plate expired? Even a 2 hr boo boo on your log honestly doesn’t affect safety.
I have heard some say people better realize without farmers and trucks they be scratching a hungry ###.....that’s exactly what they want in my opinion

Look at how many times you've seen four wheelers raging behind a governed truck pass, or an unlimited truck raging 10 feet of the passing trucks trailer. Nothing short of a cluster #### would occur.Blue jeans, Bret1984, Lumper Humper and 1 other person Thank this. -

Ok so I can't say what I really want to say on here about this situation because people will read into it wrong. So here is what I will say... ELD is not in my truck... The speed limiter will not be there either. If this means I have to buy a 1980 truck then that is what I will do. No government will tell me how to run my business. Once they do and I no longer have options then that's when I say screw it. I WILL NOT COMPLY!!!!

I will also add I cruse my truck at 68 but if family emergency happens or if I have an urgent situation pop up... I want the ability to run. They take that ability then I'm hanging up the keys. Not worth the headache. Back 25 years ago my brother lost his wife in an accident. He drove over 100 mph with a flat bed from new Mexico to okc. He was on the cb radio the hole time and they stayed out of his way. He hit the yard jumped out of the semi and got in his dodge and drove as fast as he could to Missouri. The time he made on that trip was amazing and he was able to be there for his kids that was involved. So no I don't agree with this and I won't be held back. If I need to go then I need to go. This is a perk to owning your own authority and truck. I loose that then screw it.

I’m not too thrilled about the idea of speed limiters, BUT based on the number of super truckin “drivers” I see tailgating cars at 85mph, they might have a slight case for their argument.
