    That's not very nice of them to let us know what we are in for!

    One of the rules should be that shippers and receivers can't take all of your hours up because they're slow or stupid. :)

    I hate to guess about these rules, but I think we will not like them.

    I believe they will have mandatory black box trackers or electronic log requirements. It will be the end of the loose leaf era. There will be stricter hours probably without the 34 restart as well.
