More Convoys Needed Now!!!!!!!

I had to get out on the road today. i saw one , I repeat, one trucker stopped. I saw a lot of trucks going down the road, and not in convoys, they should have been, and they should have been going 45m but they were not. come on you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!get with it.

 

I totally agree, and keep the speed at 45 boys, just the legal limit.
come on , get'er done.

 

You are wasting your time.

 

why?
because we are trying to get the drivers to shut down? listen they need to shut down, they don't make enough to feed their families, some thing has to be done.

 

Shutting down less than 1% of the trucks on the road does what exactly?

Nothing, therefore it is a waste of time.

How does shutting down put food in the mouth's of their family?

Yes something needs to be done, STOP HAULING CHEAP FREIGHT.

If you are not making any money on a load, why are you taking it?

Econ 101, people!?!

 

Who isn't making enough to feed their family. I don't see many skinny drivers out here.

 

lol....now THAT is true!

 

I know thats right. I look like a ethiopian next to Sally Strothers eatin a ho-ho when I'm in the truck stop.

 

Just trying to inject a laugh to this, people are too strung out over this mess.

 

The media may have dropped the story, but the people want to know about it. Here's proof:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7468311/

That shows the top rated stories on MSNBC's website. The trucker story is rated number 3, five days after it was posted. That's a big deal. Stories usually get to the top and then fall immediately, but the strike story is sticking.

And those ratings are based on readers. If you go to the story itself and scroll to the bottom, you can see how many people have rated the story. It's 1,398. That may not seem like much in the big picture, but for an MSNBC story, that's a lot of raters. And the average rating is 4.5. That is very rare, to get that many ratings and still have such a high rating.

So the traditional media may be ignoring the strike, but from looking at that story on MSNBC, the people support what you are doing, and they want to know more about it.
