I mentioned this to a friend the other day who is involved in trucking. He looked at me as though I was nuts. What Strike?

Less than 10% of truckers are owner operators.
So immediately 90% aren’t going to hijack their employer’s rig to go to DC.

Of the o-o’s, most are struggling to make ends meet financially. Days of revenue lost and $4/gal fuel mitigate against trips to DC.

Get the becks and Hannity’s on this. This could be great. My son just hung it up after 28 years and 3,000,000 miles. DOT, govt regulations and fuel prices finally pushed him over the edge!
