    They have 13,000 trucks.

    Things bound to happen with soo many trucks out there and they hire no experience drivers.

    Not defending Swift, just saying.

    I didn't really mean to single them out either. Just using them as everybody's favorite bad example to point out that there are plenty of bad drivers right in our own backyard.

    Remain calm. Secretary Rubio has already stopped issuing H1 visas willy nilly. This will imapct the types of situation you previously described greatly.

    With ICE cracking down on those who enter the country illegally or overstay their visas or passports, things are going to start shaping up.
     
    TheLoadOut, drvrtech77 and Ddh77777 Thank this.

    Hear me out:

    Everyone gets paintball guns. You shoot at the car/truck/semi if they do something stupid. If you see someone covered in paint, you know to pay them extra attention.

    Shoot a paintball gun at someone in Texas. A paintball won't be greeting you back. I appreciate the sentiment, but folks are way too angry these days.
     
    RockinChair, mjd4277, Bean Jr. and 3 others Thank this.

    Well back in the 80's I had a radio business, INS would come in and check our employee's to make sure I only hired legal tech's and installer's. I do agree with revoking work permits for CDL drivers and sending them back to the county of there origin, illegal CDL drivers should e arrested on the spot and sent via ICE Express, easy enough to spot them, Goto the truckstops, produce shippers, the harbor, etc.....
    I really don't care if they have been here 1 year or 20 years, 20 just means the have been a criminal longer, should ps sold outget them to there country fast, right to the hed of the line. On 09/11 the towels disappeared and the ballcaps sold out.
