    I'm glad to see that some of this insane regulation is finally impacting every body.
    Instead of just the trucking industry.

    So I cannot check my own tire pressure, I have to go to somebody else and get it checked and get a receipt to prove it! GREAT NOT!

    This will work real well with those auto inflation systems.

    To think checking air pressure used to be a normal thing at service stations. It went along with checking fluids and cleaning windshields.

    This is from California, did you expect any less. The people voted for what they have in office, and this is the net result of that vote. They are getting what they deserve.
    I apologize to all who did not vote for those currently in office in California but are still getting bent over.

    I had a couple rolls of rubber roofing to deliver to a jobsite after working hours on a Friday evening. The customer told me to just roll it off at the jobsite. After doing this I noticed a fellow across the street with a sign he would work for food. I walked over and asked him if he wanted to earn $10. When he said yes I handed him the bill of lading, he signed it and I gave him $10. I asked him if he wanted to make another $10 and when he said yes I handed him the delivery receipt, he signed it and I gave him $10. He asked if I had any more work and seemed disappointed when I told him no.

    Awhile back CARB was wanting to ban dark coloured cars and only allow light coloured ones in California. Their reasoning was dark colours absorbed more heat which neccessatated running the AC more which reduced MPG.

    Maybe CARB should be put in charge of immigrants. Six months under thier jurisdiction and the illegals would be fleeing home.
