The fight againts ELDs,A large number of drivers forming.

Most of the newer trucks already have lojack or gps locators and some trailers.

So do cell phones, laptops, along with other electronic devices, ao arent you already being monitored?

 

That's no thing to worry about, every driver I talk to has top notch equipment and never cheats on their hours, but they hate having to get elogs

 

The real issue here is we are being regulated by people who cannot start a truck much less drive one.
Even the CEO's of these big companies that lobbied for this can't drive a truck.
This is an unfunded mandate and in that should be gone!

 

Its not really about the ata. sure they have embraced elogs, but that's only to appease the lobbyists with huge voting power behind them. In Washington DC the ata is a small fringe player compared to the highway safety groups backed by the AAA and AARP.

 

Truth is none of us know. We all just have our own little theories. My personal theory is it has less to do with money and more to do with politicians wanting to keep their jobs. which i guess indirectly does mean its about money. And power.
