That’s just how the NWO rolls. 😐
This does sound like some plan, right up the alley of Pete B. He seems to see himself as some kind of enforcer, IMO.
Pete Buttplug calls the tracking device a “fag tag” for short.
When you let the camel get his nose under tent, you can expect him to waltz right in and shit all over the place.
Privacy is becoming just another memory from the old Great America Days. This crap reminds me of that old Ray Stevens song, “Santa Claus Is Watchin’ You”.
For my job I frequently pull a trailer. Because it’s considered a commercial vehicle I’ve always had to log my trips. A recent proctological exam by a DOT cop hd him convince me that I was running too much for paper logs and needed an Electronic Logging Device.
What a joke that thing is. Every single day, even days off I need to log in and set my status. I can’t go anywhere without big brother telling me what I do wrong. I’m also the administrator of the device so every time I hit the brakes hard, I get an email advising me to coach my driver (me) about hard breaking.
Whenever I’m not pulling the trailer is my own time, but I still have to account for it.
One of my kids is a full time trucker. If I had to put up with that government nonsense all the time I’d quit.
These 8th grade dropout Nazi dictators sitting behind thie desks need to find meaningful employment somewhere else and shut up.
Let’s put a tracking device on THEM.
Our communist masters know that the pathetically servile and indolent Aamerican people will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...
“Nobody likes Big Brother looking at your every move,”
They already do with the eLog system that was implemented.
We haul bulk Ag. We are required by the terminal we pick up at to log in to load and log off after unloading. They also want us to allow them to track us. Sorry, nope. Ain’t happening.
The Chinese total-surveillance-state is the new model.
I thought, probably mistakenly, that most big rig truckers used Qualcomm or the like which inherently is a tracking/locator device or is that just big logistics firms like Weiner, JB Hunt, etc?
We all have a tracking device in our pocket now.
All they need is your number, and the GED guy sipping coffee at the State Police house knows zactly what yer doing.
All the Karens will vote to let them do it, and the self appointed Overclass will never let go.
It’s called Communism. The State is everything.
Hey, Guido check with your pal as to when that load of cell phones is coming through Wolf Creek pass...
“U.S. Department of Transportation said that the devices will allow law enforcement to identify high-risk drivers”
Start by looking at those rolling scrap heaps that pass for trucks in Mexico that are allowed on our roads.
Ok. I hate this administration.
Setting up to prevent what the truckers did in Canada.
That dip-stick leader up there would be proud.
Once they do, then they can tax the trucks by the miles travelled, independent of any fuel taxes.
And if you do, then you just might need to hire more IRS agents to do the tax calculations. Maybe 87,000 more...
