CSA 2010: How will the Driver Rating System affect you?

Just wait, they'll pass a law that says constitutional rights no longer apply to truckers.

And then justify it in the name of "safety".

 

They did that years ago in not so many words!

 

Or in way too many words.

 

Dave I would think that when this new system gets implemented then HOPEFULLY this kind of thing cold go away and your company just do the right thing and get you running safe again.

It's gong to be CYA, CYA CYA by documenting.

 

Ain't nothing gonna change, for the better, for the drivers. Everything that has been changed in the last 48 years, my years in transportation, has not improved the life of a trucker. As matter of fact, every change has hurt the driver, not helped him. And this bull #### that is coming down the pike is just another form of harassment.

As always, the burden is resting on the driver's shoulder. The government is not going after the companies, it is the drivers that is going to be "under the gun". Try reporting a company for violations and see just how far you get.

 

Wow! 48 years! I havnt been doing this nearly as long as you, nut I think you are correct! The reason it never gets better for the driver is that the driver has absolutely nothing to do with the rule making process! It's all these special interest groups that are "in the drivers' seat". Most of the people writing these rules couldnt tell the difference between a steering wheel and a 5th wheel, yet they "know" what's best for trucking???

 

If our country stays on the course it's on,.....The Constitution will become nothing more than a memory,.....

 

Substitute "has" for "will" and you will have it right.

 

Our only hope is that the rest of the nation wakes up and fights back,...Standing together we still have a chance,



I'm not going to give up,........Are you????
