Was just Las week or so that you posted about seeing a driver at a scale getting the English language test.
Made me laugh because the law hadn’t even taken affect yet.
Just as I replied to it you immediately deleted it. Guess even you noticed how stupid it was, lolbryan21384 Thanks this. -
The ICC's Motor Carrier Safety Regulations stated that after July 1, 1937, drivers had to meet specific qualifications, including the ability to read and speak English. This regulation was intended to ensure drivers could understand traffic signs, communicate with the public and officials, and accurately complete reports. The ICC believed this proficiency was essential for compliance with safety regulations.
While the requirement was initially aimed at ensuring safety and effective communication, there were later clarifications about how it would be enforced. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) clarified that the motor carrier employer was primarily responsible for assessing a driver's English proficiency, and the regulation was not intended for roadside enforcementOpus, gentleroger and bryan21384 Thank this. -

Wow, this topic has given me an incredible, profitable idea.
I could work something out with The TA /Petro’s that have the church trailers..God’s work so to speak.
Set up English lessons for truck drivers in need…Charge them dearly of course. I would make sure it’s proper.. I could fly in some “folks” from England to do the teachin part.
Within just a few months we’ll have every Mexican driver speaking the Queen’s English.
I know some of you will laugh but I guarantee you that I could raise millions for a startup
