SPEED LIMITERS PROPOSAL

I'll go a step further and suggest we all camp out in the right lane, bumper to bumper in every metropolitan area. Then sit and watch as the general public can't figure out how to merge onto a highway.

 

How about nobody comply.

 

There was one good thing in that article that shouldn’t be overlooked. A test for anyone wanting to become a motor carrier.

 

55 again might be a good thing....every truck with a radio and paying attention
Just like once upon a time

 

Started in ‘74 due oil embargo...shortages etc
My fuzzy memory thinks it became a state’s decision around ‘85-86

 

Nail on the head... in the coffin.
The ata wants it, they pay enough in campaign donations to get what they want, theyll get it just like they got the elog mandate

"Chris Spear, president of the American Trucking Associations (ATA), said his organization approves of speed limiters."

 

Sleep tests every Med Cert?

 

I was think'n it started in 72.. maybe it was 74 ..
I know Sammy Hagar relased the song ..I can't drive 55 ..in 84
And your right I think it became the states decision in 85 I think but it took a couple years for some states to raise it
And early on it seem like alot of states only raised it for automobiles
