Young drivers, electric trucks and pot among institute's research priorities

You are correct. People paying for studies want facts, and studies have an annoying tendency to deliver those ###### things.

 

Bingo Anti trucking pricks

 

Name 1 good thing the ATA has done for drivers. Not the companies or government?.
I guess It depends on the driver perspective as well.

 

See Supreme Court case ATA vs. City of LA, wherein the ATA got citywide environmental regs voided. Next question.

 

Yeah I remember, but only because the mega #### box fleets we’re getting hammered for fines because they were to #### cheap to put apu on trucks and drivers were to ####ing stupid to turn trucks off

 

Nope the suit had nothing to do with APU's or idling. But it did have a lot do with which drivers were allowed to work the port and how complex their application process was.

 

I can read this two ways
1. Follow the money, people with an agenda tend to fund studies that generally end up proving what they want
2. Studies tend to yeild results to be looked at as facts uncritically

I agree with the first, the second, that last word is the problem.
