Like I said... google percentage of truck accidents by race... But that would mean you have to accept that you are wrong. So you wont.

Do your own research instead of screaming "the sky is falling" like Chicken Little...

Ive had this conversation on the board before. There have been 2 total instances that I (or anyone else that has tried to disprove me on this issue) have found in the past 6+ years where a truck was involved in a fatal accident BECAUSE the truck driver couldnt read or write english.

2.

Feel free to prove me wrong on that. I would LOVE for someone to, I truly would. Honestly. I would. Note that this is BECAUSE THEY COULDNT READ OR WRITE. Im not saying fatal accidents arent caused by illegals. I am saying that the numbers dont bear the uproar over it. The data proves that white (non-hispanic) drivers kill more than any other racial group, and the vast majority of white CDL drivers are American. So ban American white drivers I guess by YOUR logic.

But no one can prove me wrong, because there just plain is ZERO evidence of it. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” - you want to go on a witch hunt because illegals are driving trucks and killing people, Im going to stop it with facts. I (as a good man) WILL do something. Ignorance can be cured by education. This is what I am attempting to do. Cure ignorance with education.

There is no cure for stupidity. As Forrest Gump said Stupid is as stupid does.

Are foreign drivers driving down the rates? No question about it. Is there any way to stop it LEGALLY? Nope. So change the law or change professions. I retired (officially) 11 days ago. I dont give a crap anymore.
