    I thought some of you might find this interesting and want to do this. Transflow is allowing drivers to scan their opinions on the new HOS proposal directly in to the people that need to see it for free. i Highly encourage everyone of you to stop in at a Transflow location and send in your opinion. This effects anyone that is over the road for a living. Here is a link about it. http://www.pegasustranstech.com/article.php?article=64 This is a good easy chance for drivers to be heard for a change.

    Why do you think it is a good deal?

    Do you want a third party speaking for you? I prefer to speak for myself. So I went to the FMCSA website & placed my own comment with my name attatched....

    It takes just as much time as it does for you to write out your comments & then transflo them to a third party.... In which, are you really sure that third party is going to forward your comments?

    Like I said. I don't let anyone speak for me. I have a mouth, thought process, & opinions. And most of all, I'm not scared to express them to who ever.

    man, its just another option. A lot of people probably didnt know about your way of doing it, a lot of people probably didnt know either way of doing and a lot of people probably just plain flat out didnt know anything about the hours of service change proposal at all. Its just another option. One thing i have learned over time is that no matter what the situation is or what the subject is, there is always a truck driver that knows more about it or how to do it better. Sorry, but its a good deal for those that dont tote computers around the country with them. Not all drivers have internet access out on the road and this is an easy way for them to try and get their opinion in.Just another example of why truck drivers will never be able to band together and try to get things done to improve the overall situation.

    Yeah and so did I Redd...I just think it's a good deal for those who don't have a computer and may not be able to get their voice heard any other way......that's all
