Ya know. I see so many people say forigners arent the issue. Then for every single "joe bob did a dumb" i feels like you have 40 ivans, akbars, and clicky clackys who manage to do dumbs so massive it ends up front page news.

Foreigners tend to be the ones more likely to buy a CDL from a CDL mill rather than going to a real trucking school. It's cheaper and faster and they're more likely to get a pass if there's an English language issue.
...cuz it's just driving. Right?Toomanybikes, TurkeyCreekJackJohnson and hope not dumb twucker Thank this. -
The_vett and hope not dumb twucker Thank this.

Tarakanovskyi was charged with reckless endangerment in the 2nd degree and issued more than 20 tickets, including citations for violating federal commercial motor vehicle safety regulations, NYSP said in a news release.
How much you want to bet tha none of these will ever be paid by this foreigner??…should have locked him up..Toomanybikes, IH Truck Guy, Big Road Skateboard and 6 others Thank this. -

D a m n, that’s some real life “Weekend At Bernie’s” type of s*** right there!!lol
bryan21384 and hope not dumb twucker Thank this. -
The thing that leapt out to me is that he got 20 tickets. That's probably 2 hours on Line 4. That's probably gonna be like.....80 points on his license because I think NY puts points on licenses for bridge strikes. When you add up all the losses, it's pretty costly.
