Yall ARE aware that the united states does NOT have a federal language right?
Is it probably a good idea to speak the most common language here, yes, but its not actually a requirement.

One time on Interstate-10 in Alabama a state trooper pulled a driver over for something. He was ticketed, after a quickie inspection, for not speaking English. He only spoke Spanish. Anyway, he was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. Yes, he's a legal US Citizen.

There was a tragic crash that had fatalities, where there had been signs for runways to stop trucks in trouble. ( you may be talking of this one)When I read that my thoughts were if the man had been able to read English, he would have hopefully used one of them. Maybe it would have not made a bit of difference, but he would have at least been aware he had choices other than killing people.
If there are simple answers and im just asking dumb questions I apologize. I don't get into most conversations because it doesn't include me but this is a subject for all who operate any motor vehicle.

Pig Latin is a language, argot, or can't in which words in English are altered, usually by adding a fabricated suffix or by moving the onset or initial consonant or consonant cluster of a word to the end of the word and adding a vocalic syllable to create such a suffix.Frank Speak, Flat Earth Trucker and The_vett Thank this. -

Let me ask this...
Are the FMCSA regs, the CFRs, State Statutes, County and Local Ordinances, etc, etc drafted in any other languages? No they are not. They are drafted in English and as a driver you cannot claim ignorance to them for any reason. Know the rules, know the laws, abide by them or else go flip burgers. Anything else is an attempt to duck the responsibility or to place the blame where it doesn't belong. There is no excuse for this to be happening. None, zero, end of story.HoundDog7, Gearjammin' Penguin, Bud A. and 1 other person Thank this. -
The_vett Thanks this.
