    I meant that by his comments of agreeing with and supporting the mandate he sounds like be gladly and routinely surrenders his rights to the nazis in the name of safety and even shakes there hands with a smile while doing it.

    I'll bet I'm the slowest driver on this entire site. At Landstar. Pretty much anywhere.

    If we pass you, you're either getting fuel, on break, or broke down.

    And this is just another awful plan of action by government.

    First ####### to try and put a driver faceing camera in the truck i OWN is getting a colon exam by my lucky crowbar and maybe a new vent hole in the skull. This is my home, and while i have nothing to hide i also dont want those invasive annoying peices of #### in my HOME.

    Same with this speed limiter ####. This is going to cause all kinds of crunchys with cars. And wait until you get a pair of fools going side by side doing 60 for hours with giant lines of slow moving trucks causeing road rage to spike.

    I predict car on truck incidencts to skyrocket in the first few months and places like ####cago to turn into absolute mad houses even compared to now. Not to mention skyhigh rates of road rage and likely a lot more car on truck shootings. But hay fools like yumdong and bryan will get their wish and then be confused when it makes things worse not better.

    And this is coming from a guy with a plastic truck thats usually getting passed by megas on any incline bigger then an ant hill.

    Tell us how you really feel or better yet tell the FMCSA by leaving a comment at Regulations.gov. You can also leave comments on my petition.

    I have been since they came up with this BS. Hell one of my collage papers 3 years ago was an entire study on why it was a bad idea. Ive been doing everything i can to refute this crap upto and includeing throwing money at any group willing to fight it for literally years.

    But alas it seems your average american is a brainwashed sheep nowadays.

    Then you end up with the ######### like the Cuban in Colorado. Overrun the speed limiter in neutral and then can't get it back in gear to use the engine brake because it's now dead pedaling.
