Well, those poor black and brown people can learn their old pastime of hunting and gathering.
Good luck.

May as well add boats and trains while they’re at it. Using diesel? No entry.

If it weren’t for the major shipping ports I would say let them starve and move shipping to Oregon or Washington. But those states are equally stupid. If I were president of Mexico I would invite the world’s shipping fleets to Mexico and modernize the port of Ensanada.

Why wait?

How about all truckers cease operations to and from California right now? You know, for the minorities and the children.

Kalifornia politicians are living in a utopian la-la world where all of their visions turn out happily ever after.

Only the people in the real world there have to deal with this stupidity, and they are doing nothing to stop it.

Having only 49 states has a nice ring to it!
Why keep Ca around?

Have we reached peak Cali progressive arrogance?

Seems their social-engineering plans just get ever grander and more intrusive

What will make them back off when they reach the limit of debt, economics and physics?

I expect it will be collapse.

the 49 other states should end transportation at the California border now.

Just dump all cargo right at the California border and let the EVs or the illegals do the work.

Brilliant! California can now move the homeless off the streets and into abandoned truck cabs.

Why wait. Do it now if it’s really important.

The additional good effect will be to close all California ports.

And what, import cargo bicycles for illegals to use to haul stuff around their cesspool cities?

I looked up an all-electric semi. Kenworth has one that has an operating range of 150 miles, “depending the application.”. It’s 256 miles from Needles to Los Angeles, so the Kenworth can’t make it from the border to the coast without at least one charge, “depending on the application.”

Since they are targeting certain areas for zero-emission goals, will there be staging areas where there would be a handoff of freight between diesel and electric trucks going to and from the ports?

Either eay, I can’t wait to see this works out, or doesn’t work out.

Insanity. All the batteries in the world would not support such a fantasy in California. Diesel trucks have to be on the move 24/7. The owners can not afford to stop every day to recharge. What do they think goods will cost under that scenario? There is not enough capacity in the electric grid.

Again? They announced similar plans around 2003 and 2008.

Truckers should go on an immediate strike- and let californium see what banning them will mean! I’ll bet that peopel will be screaming over lack of food and products that california will fine the gas vehicle truckers for not delivering on their contracts- even though they wanna ban them-

Looks like I will have to expedite my Rubicon trip.
Soon the only off reading will be on bikes and horses!

I used to make a joke, and provide a good example, by stating we should subsidize the horseshoe industry. Solar and wind ‘power’ cannot survive without taxpayer money, government subsidies. We could pour tons of money into horseshoes, but only a few would actually use horseshoes.

Now, with Kalifornia trying to ban almost every type of abundant energy, maybe horses and horseshoes will make a comeback. I can just see it now, a covered wagon with the Amazon Logo on the side.
