    And once again, a new bill that will destroy what Trump and Duffy are trying to do which is cleaning this industry some... but it may satisfy the ATA... This bill must be overturned. We can't let this happen. Time to contact our reps, bombard them with emails, phone calls, posts on X and everything possible.
    The battle never ends. Trucking was once a dignified profession where the pay was good and drivers were proud of what they did. But everything has gone down the drain.. And now it's shameful. We compete with thousands of "trash" who flout the laws here and the HOS, they are unqualified, dangerous on the roads, accept much less pay, and have no respect for lives... a disgrace. If possible, please, share this video. Thank you! :)

    He said that he used to drive trucks... some of his videos are silly and the way he talks;... gotta speed up the playback or it becomes too boring... But this video is not silly. It's worth watching. If you want to know more about this bill, visit the ATU website. They have been doing a lot for us drivers.

    Haha... NO WAY! Went to Brasil for a while. But came back and back in a truck OTR.
    Just don't come here as often as I used to... Hope you are doing very well. :)

    Word is insurance companies are beginning to say they will not insure non domicile drivers so this may be a big help if this bill gets passed

    The good news is that they have been working to get rid of some of the trash in the industry. Hopefully, this will make life better for all of you! I haven't been on the road for over 10 years, but I've heard that things have gotten pretty bad with all the foreigners out there.
