    I see nothing resembling ticketing or inspections in that video.

    That video was shot after they moved off the road. See the pic I just posted. LOL The helicopter was a little late getting to the event, apparently. :biggrin_25525:

    If you click on the "Survey" from that news link, it appears that the public supports lower fuel prices for truckers.

    Cool, I didn't notice that. Thanks for the head up. I see that a lot, on many of the news stories related to the strike or cost of fuel. Many people are looking at the truckers as the leaders now to get the prices back down. They may not understand the whole issue, but they understand that truckers are trying to help.

    GREAT! I was just going to add though to take all tickets and appeal them all!

    I pray to God that WALMART and some of these bigger guys that can afford to strike will they too will benefit from it.
