Taking Matters In To Our Own Hands

The time has come to for all drivers to realize that the only way we can change the Trucking Industry is by doing it ourselves.

I believe there is a majority of opinion on what Drivers need, but we have not been able to get the Government and Trucking Companies to listen.

A central point for information gathering, and an advocate group must be formed to take our cause to the next level.

Unions and shutdowns do not work.
Money speaks-- Where we spend our money and who we choose to work for speaks volumes.
Look at the power the NRA has......
It is all about the vote and the money.

Trucking companies are so concerned about driver turn over-- Let's tell them what is wrong with their company so they can fix it.

Driving is a noble profession but some how it has become a battle between corporate suits and drivers just trying to make a living.

The Government needs to get real input from real drivers on Hours of Service not reports from number crunchers and data twits.

Maybe the trucking companies need some education?

Tell us what you think.

Let's change it back to where the driver moving the 80,000 lbs. down the road is in charge again, not the 24 year old Dispatcher, oops sorry "Driver Manager"



It is time to take action.
