The promoters of this event don’t strike me as real truckers and obviously don’t have much appreciation of the costs (and lost revenues) suffered by an independent trucker to pull his equipment out of service (during harvest, the heaviest freight season) and drive to Washington, DC.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm ... Lucky, that's a good point. Head's up. Something to think about, at least.

Hard to say. I assume these are indies, I don’t think employees of large firms can do it. As for being loaded up, I don’t know about that either. Could be a lot of hot air. It doesn’t take a lot of trucks to clog the Beltway, though....
