Anyone know about the eobr mandates coming?

I can't seem to find this info anywhere, so if anyone knows about it, or has some knowledge on where I can find out about it accurately, I 'd appreciate it.

I'm a small fleet owner with 5 or less trucks (2) with reefers, I was wondering, are the mandates going to be for only larger fleets with 5 or more trucks? Or will it be for everyone?

I want to expand as I have new accounts coming in but I do not want to invest into more overhead costs if I'm already going to have to fork up extra expenses for the 2 I already have. At $2000 per EOBR and $35-40 services, there just has to be other changes coming in the industry, like BETTER LOAD RATES. $2, $3 or even $4/mile on avg. is s not enough to cover these costs for smaller companies. If that is the case, WE(ALL OF US) need to START and SIGN a petition to REVERSE this decision they're about to make, even if it takes me calling old Ray LaHood myself, then petitioning Obama to take a good hard look at this. I'd say we could strike but I know and YOU know MOST of these drivers out here will only run their mouths and WILL NOT participate. The power is in the people but it seems truck drivers DO NOT know that or refuse to band together on these issues, I mean WE run this country, freight has to be loaded on a truck at some point to reach its final destination anywhere, even if it is a box truck. the unions do it, so why can't independent truck owners do it too? it's time for a revolution, and the time is NOW. there will never be a change if WE don't make a change. the petitions need 100,000 signatures to get looked at by the president and because I'm involved in some other political associations, I feel I'd have a pretty good chance at contacting the White House on this issue if it were to go down. #JustMyInput #TRUTH
