New York was working yesterday. Not the usual dark blue vans instead yellow vans and lots of creepers. Not sure if that's new or just new to me. There was 1 or 2 state suburban cars there for chasers, as usual. Bath, ny.
Border sure is slow. 4 booths open at Detroit on Sunday. 1.5 hour wait. Cb chatter someone claimed cbp can force the officers to work unpaid for 3 cheques, or 6 weeks. So we will see what happens. Md (70) and nj (295) were both working Monday.Cat sdp Thanks this. -
those are state employees and are not effected by the shutdown .... mostly bureaucratic idiots that are federal employees

where have you ever seen a federal truck scale at or a federal man inspecting a truck besides the border patrol. ... the states in force the laws that the dot come up with , the dot makes the laws for trucks on equipment safety and hos so they are the same in every state . the state dot enforce those laws and they keep the! $$$ . the federal men do audit logs and companies but in the office not on the road . California of course is always trying to make up there own laws
