the way I look at it, it always sucks when the government forces us to do something,
But the fact of the matter is, must of us cant drive worth ##### while holding a phone, I know I cant, but think about it if you were to get in a accident well holding it, and hurt someone, wouldn't it eat away at you forever after, wondering if it could have been avoided. if this law saves one kids life, then in my humble opinion, It will have be worth using a headset. -

as far as "facts" "logic" or "reasoning", I thought you were a truck driver, My bad. I am though and I drive the interstate almost every day and I see the "facts" "logic" and "reasoning" every day on the road of why we need this law.
If you want to be anti government, fight something with a real cause, there are better ways of using your time. -

19 y/o supposedly texting while driving, no one will ever know if that was the cause he's to dead to ask. But lets blame the big truck cause it got hit in the rear?? Lets not forget the school buses fault theres two of them they rear ended the pick up whats their reason on why they crashed?? It's always the trucks fault. You display the goverenment knows best attitude but from NY what could I expect? Goverenment can't run a fruit stand. Goverenment ran lets' see fannie,freddie,usps, social security, education and two wars lots of great success stories here? So you trust them to run your life not me. How long have you had your authority?, interstate, intrastate or what? How many inspections you had? True egg spurts at governement get it right all the time. you can mail king ray your cell phone of you like if you feel it will make us all more safe.Attached Files:

As I said before, don't sit on trucking forums complaining because things are not the way you like them, use your time doing something productive.
I'm not going argue with you, you have proved many times on other forums (most of which you are now banned from, hmm, I wonder if that's why your here now?) just how bullheaded you are.
Happy New years, Drive Safe... -
Now don't get me wrong I'm all for safety. The first thing to improve safety would be more chlorox in the gene pool. I personally think this rule will ultimately cause more accidents. As to being banned from another fourum that was cause I openly pointed a certain"dispatch service" pandered the unknowing into buying lots of equipment to haul cheap LTL freight . That is still being borne out as most of the guys that were there have tried to sell their trucks, get bigger ones, gone to hauling cars, went back to being a company driver and etc. You didn't answer are you interstate or intrastate ? how many many inspections?
If this is your number 2196844 I could probabally offer you a suggesttion on how to adjust your filing that would make your insurance cheaper. If you quit looking at trees you will see the forrest. -
I do fight all my tickets, and I have very few I have not won.
I am interstate, although I fail to see what that has to do with this topic.
also I'm more like a logger inspecting the trees in the forest, so I can cut out the bad ones.. -
The point here is we already have rules to cover this. typical governement action. If they would enforce the rules they have new ones would be unneeded. Instead they make more burdensome ones, to cover up for their ineptness. If you will notice it's always after the fact they want to burden us some more. I already had a phone use safety plan long before this. First thing is when using phone I would slow down 5-10 mph than rest of traffic. Stay in right lane, allow twice the disctance from vehicle in front of me and turn off cruise control. To prove a point look up UCR's mandate it serves no purpose except to get out money. IRP,IFTA and UCR could be rooled in to one agency as most states use one department to administer it. Another is you get irp in all 48 states , well you still have to get NM and Or. Permit to to run there what a rip off. This is just a few of the unfair double taxation things they do to us. Not to mention if your running a real hotshot dually/gooseneck ypour the first one bothered. If no one has told you we are the ones who violate all the rules.
