Exclusive — Co-Founder of American Truckers United Shannon Everett: Hundreds of Thousands of Drivers Not Properly Vetted

But what’s going on today that’s even a bigger problem is the issuance of U.S. commercial driver’s licenses called non-domicile CDLs to noncitizens. That just started in 2021 under what’s called the Biden-Harris trucking action plan. And so we actually have non-citizens, just similar to what you saw those reporting on recently. Yeah, hey, we found out these guys are getting EAD (employment authorization document) cards. We found out they’re getting social security numbers. They’ve left one loose end. They also got commercial driver’s licenses,” he continued, explaining that they believe there are actually hundreds of thousands of drivers who came in on these EAD cards and have not been properly vetted at all.

“Problem with that is, these people have not been vetted, these people have not been properly qualified and trained. And so we actually have on our highways right now, we believe, hundreds of thousands of drivers that have been brought in on these EAD cards, not properly vetted, and then put in trucks,” he said.

“And so that’s why you’re seeing these increased accidents. That’s what you saw in Austin, Texas, with the crash that killed five people and injured 11. That was a non-domicile driver’s license, and so that guy had come in on a work visa, couldn’t speak English, wasn’t properly trained, and now we’ve got five people dead, 11 people injured,” he continued.

Ya know those illegals that are getting caught driving drunk to the point of unconsciousness and causing major traffic fatalities?

Yeah- they’re in trucks, too.

These days I don’t do nearly the amount of highway driving that I did pre-2000. Two years ago my wife and I made a trip from Arizona to North Carolina, most of it on I-40. I was horrified at how badly many of the trucks were driven compared to how it used to be. We narrowly avoided a couple of accidents when semi drivers would force their way into the left lane with no regard for other traffic; eventually I just expected it.

Funny, but when a wrong way driver is killed/kills others, my local News stations don’t seem to think that reporting their immigration status is relevant . . .
