Um, as a class a CDL holder, the laws and regs are there for a reason. We had two employees killed in Kentucky because of an idiot driver, no brakes and 15 bald tires. I am glad they are checking your and everyones truck. Its their job!

Seems like things could be handled in much more efficient manner to be sure.

Somewhat along the same lines I was traveling thru Georgia (subject of another post)
and good grief...the number of baby sitters/hall monitors on the side of the road...bet I saw
15 Troopers, Sheriffs, etc.

I thought to my self, must be nice to live in a state where there is no real crime
and all these law enforcement personel have no cases to solve, no bad or problem areas
to patrol...nothing at all worthwhile to do except blanket the interstate
(which is a ridiculas 65mph) and prey on normal citizens, residents and tourists
just trying to get somewhere.

Course I guess that's Georgia's way of reeling in some of Florida's tourist dollars.
