    That was my thought to that it's all about the money. Can't see a 5mph change create a 30% increase in accidents.

    It wouldn’t, but soccer moms in minivans, Subarus, and hybrid cars probably got offended at the idea of trucks running at the same speed limit as car traffic.

    Bingo Cards

    For everyone of these tags you had a permit book sticker sheet that carried a sticker for each. All had to be valid.

    Bingo cards These cards held stamps from each state a motor carrier would operate in; these cards are no longer used, and have been replaced by the Single State Registration System (SSRS).
    That was back when owner-operators used these 24 cyl. supercharged engines:

    Somewhere out there is a four wheeler saying the same thing about truckers because of an incident that happened a while back.

    Ohio has always been hard on truckers, when they had a 55 mph speed limit for trucks they would wear you out.

    In 1984, I single-handedly supported the entire Cleveland police department. I was on a first name basis with the old blind-as-a-bat judge at the courthouse in Rocky River. He loved me long time, lol.
