New Jersey’s snow-free vehicle mandate awaits governor’s signature

While I see where they are coming from, it's a ridiculous law that will be impossible for trucks to comply with. How am I going to be able to get ON TOP of my trailer to sweep off snow and ice? And the cop gets to decide whether the snow and ice accumulated while I was sitting or moving? Sounds rather arbitrary.

This is all they have left to think up in New Jersey?

 

just 1 step closer to making it illegal to drive a truck!
pretty soon they are going to pass enough laws against us that everything we do or dont do is going to cost us money.
I am really starting to hate this industry!

 

So every truck stop and carrier yard is going to have to figure out how to erect a "scraping gate" to get the accumulated snow off the top of the trailer. This should really turn into a comedy of errors. New Jersey of all places...who'd have thought?

 

New Jersey the Garbage State?

 

Ban Jersey.

 

Well, you can only increase tolls so much.

 

Is the state going to be willing to pay the medical bills and funeral costs of truckers who kill themselves falling off trailers trying to scrape snow?

 

I am sure that is covered somewhere in the Healthcare Plan...page 1076, paragraph 14, line 38!

 

I guess this will make me a fair weather truck driver, in NJ anyway!
