Now test the president!
I feel like Trump needs an English class first.
I would trust President Trump behind the wheel of one of these 80,000 lb semi trucks more than I do these non-English speaking illegal aliens who get their CDLs from sanctuary states like California, Washington and Illinois.
There is literally a video of Trump unable to open the door of propaganda dump truck and another where he is amazed by car technology but, you’d put Trump on the road? You sure are special, aren’t ya?
I said what I said. No apologies. I’d feel safer with President Trump on the road driving a semi truck than these illegal aliens who don’t speak English, don’t know driving laws and regulations and have no regard for human life.
LMAO! If Trump were in charge of delivery, he’d dump the wares in the woods and blame Obama. You don’t need to speak English to read a number or an arrow or stay in the lines. You’re so silly!
So, you feel safer with illegal aliens who are incapable of reading, writing or communicating in English, and no comprehension of U.S. driving laws and regulations, driving 80,000lb commercial trucks on our nation’s roads? I’m sure the 3 U.S. citizens killed on the Florida Turnpike would disagree.
Sean Duffy Can Go Fuck Himself
See you in court, Sean. Totally unconstitutional.
“federal and state partners on immigration enforcement and checking for English proficiency for commercial drivers while continuing agricultural inspections.” There sure to find a whole lot of drivers as fruits & vegetables are coming out of the fields. Plus
There is no “shortage” of truck drivers in the United States. Only a shortage of U.S. drivers willing to drive for cheap wages. Democrats just want more slave labor.
It took both 𝘼 𝘿𝙚𝙢𝙤𝙘𝙧𝙖𝙩 & 𝘼 𝙍𝙚𝙥𝙪𝙗𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙖𝙣 to do it. The Surface Freight Forwarder Deregulation Act of 1986, Public Law 99-521, is a federal law of the United States which eliminated federal regulation of prices,
services and entry as to general commodities surface 'freight forwarders' This Act was a follow on to a sweeping program to free up competitive forces in United States transportation,
most but not all of which was accomplished in the 1971-1980 period, as set out in the deregulation topic in this encyclopedia. (I drove from 1977-1992) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface...
What encyclopedia?
This has been a requirement for CDL drivers since 1937. Communication is incredibly important and you can't afford to have communication issues on the road for a whole host of reasons.
Go back to MTV.
I'm so sick of his mess. And he hasn't even been in office a year yet.
So, they want a shortage of long haul truckers? Weird thing to do.
Especially since the industry is 80,000-100,000 short on drivers.
You know what’s so sad is now they’re just blackmailing people to do what they want/they started with the colleges then they started with businesses schools. They band books and now this even though there’s so many different languages spoken in the USA did you guys vote for this really- vote blue
If anyone has ever seen MAGA post on social media, demands from their side for English proficiency are pretty damned funny.
WTF !!!!
This is one of those times when a policy sounds logical (licensed drivers should be able to read traffic signs, for instance), but because THIS regime is the one implementing it, I feel as if this is some sort of trap
Duffy can fuck off.
He’s such A buffoon
Then they can hold back their payments to the federal government and let the red welfare states suffer.
They are intentionally making it hard for specific industries to operate on purpose btw. Collapse of the economy is the goal.
Are you implying that you prefer to drive next to an 80,000lb semi truck being operated by an illegal alien who cannot properly communicate in English, has zero knowledge of our driving laws and regulations, and has ZERO regards for human life?
English-only laws violate the First Amendment and Fourteenth Amendments.
So the drivers have to master jibberish, the prevailing MAGA lingo?
No, Dipshit. Commercial truck drivers have been able to read, write and communicate proficiently in the English language and have a clear understanding of U.S. driving laws and regulations to legally operate an 80,000lb commercial vehicle on U.S. roadways. Sounds simple to me.
I gave up my CDL due to failing eyesight. I miss being on the road, but I don't miss having to wrangle that beast around all those dangerous amateurs. People think you just start it up, put it in gear and it drives itself.
I hear you on that Brother. I’m trying to keep my vision from getting worse than 20/40. A lot of these mega-carriers are training drivers in house in these newer, automatic, governed, Tupperware-torpedos. The drivers are really nothing more than glorified seat covers.
I sure don't feel comfortable with a computer driving an 80,000 pound rig. It's like that 2001 space movie. " Open the pod bay doors, Hal. Sorry Dave, I can't do that..."
