Indian illegal alien truck drivers aren't just killing Americans with their reckless driving; they're running drugs nationwide, too. Gupreet Singh of Fresno, CA, and Jasveer Singh of Santa Clara, CA were arrested in Putnam County, Indiana on Saturday on a charge of dealing narcotics after over 300 pounds of cocaine were found in the sleeper berth of the semi tractor-trailer during a routine DOT inspection. Now those both those drugs and the truckers are off the street, and both Mr. Singhs are subject to ICE deportation holds. From the Indiana State Police: Saturday, January 3, 2026, at approximately 1:30 p.m.,...

A court ruled the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet violated the state's open records laws by withholding documents tied to an investigation into immigrants illegally obtaining Kentucky driver's licenses in Louisville, ordering more than 2,300 records released to WDRB. The ruling marks a major development in WDRB's ongoing investigation into claims that non-citizens were able to buy Kentucky driver's licenses under the table, often without proper documentation, Homeland Security screening or required driving tests. For former licensing clerk Melissa Moorman, the court order brings both validation and frustration. "I would just like this to be resolved and over so this dark cloud...

A leaked photo reportedly from an internal U.S. Postal Service (USPS) update reveals that the agency will continue to use “non-domiciled” drivers. The leaked image purports to show that USPS, which operates independently of the president, will accept or hire non-citizen commercial drivers as of 2026. The leak comes in the weeks following the Trump administration’s announcement of increased scrutiny and English proficiency requirements for CDL issuance to migrants. Sen. Rick Scott released a statement last week urging the Trump administration to crack down on USPS CDL hiring practices. “It is deeply concerning that the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) reportedly...

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy hammered California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) on Tuesday, accusing him of lying about a supposed extension for revoking thousands of commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) issued to non-citizens. Duffy has long been trying to crack down on the practice of issuing CDLs to truckers who, at times, struggle to understand English or read basic road signs. As common sense would dictate, having such drivers on the road is a dangerous (and sometimes deadly) proposition. The Secretary's fiery retort follows a report that the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) was granting a 60-day extension to approximately 17,000...

"Coming to you from the pilot here in Nitro, West Virginia..." Yep they are foreigners when they are praying in the isle of the truck stop while they leave their truck at the pump.

The California DMV is facing a lawsuit brought on behalf of nearly 20,000 immigrant truckers over the state’s plans to revoke their commercial drivers’ licenses (CDLs). The Asian Law Caucus and the Sikh Coalition, along with the law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, filed the lawsuit on Tuesday in an effort to stop the California DMV from canceling the CDLs, which the complaint says would “result in mass work stoppages” starting Jan 5, 2026. “This class-action lawsuit is brought on behalf of the Jakara Movement and five commercial drivers who have been deprived of their rights and livelihoods,” a...

California's expected decision to restore contested licenses sets stage for constitutional showdown over CDL authority California is expected to begin reissuing approximately 17,000 non-domiciled commercial driver’s licenses that the state had planned to revoke following federal enforcement pressure. The decision comes despite ongoing corrective action requirements from FMCSA [Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration] and raises fundamental questions about federal enforcement authority when a state openly defies compliance directives. State transportation officials confirmed to sources that the Department of Motor Vehicles will begin restoring the contested licenses to immigrant drivers who received 60-day cancellation notices on November 6. The state has...

“Commercial drivers are an important part of our economy – our supply chains don’t move and our communities don’t stay connected without them,” a spokesperson for the California agency said. “DMV stands ready to resume issuing commercial driver’s licenses, including corrected licenses to eligible drivers. Given, we are in compliance with federal regulations and state law, this delay by the federal government not only hurts our trucking industry, but it also leaves eligible drivers in the cold without any resolution during this holiday season. We are hopeful the federal government will do the right thing and allow California to reissue...

WASHINGTON — Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy threatened Friday to yank $73 million in federal highway funding meant for New York after an audit found more than half of the Empire State’s commercial trucking licenses were issued to foreign-born drivers in the US illegally. “What New York does is if an applicant comes in and they have a work authorization — for 30 days, 60 days, one year — New York automatically issues them an eight-year commercial driver’s license,” Duffy said during a press conference at DOT headquarters in DC Friday. “That’s contrary to the law.” “But we also found that...

Washington state authorities released an illegal alien truck driver accused of causing a six-vehicle crash involving a school bus after declining to honor a federal immigration detainer, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

LACEY, Wash. — A commercial truck driver was arrested at the scene of a six-car pileup crash that involved a school bus in Lacey on Thursday morning. According to the Washington State Patrol, the driver of a semi-truck that was hauling cars slammed into the back of the school bus just after 7:00 a.m. on I-5 near Martin Road.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) shared dash cam video from a recent incident involving an unsecured load of tires hauled by a commercial vehicle driver identified by troopers as a citizen of Kyrgyzstan. OHP shared the video on December 3, 2025. It was captured in November 2025 by OHP Troop E troopers on US-69 in Pittsburg, Oklahoma. Take a look below.

The tires bounced over the barrier wall and struck an OHP unit, creating a serious safety hazard.” The driver hauling the...

A third of Minnesota’s non-domiciled commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) reviewed in a recent audit by the Department of Transportation (DOT) were illegally issued, Sec. Sean Duffy announced Monday. The review was conducted by the DOT’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on “unqualified non-citizens” endangering Americans on the roads. The state has 30 days to come into compliance and revoke the illegally-issued CDLs, or risk losing up to $30.4 million in federal highway funding, a department press release stated. Officials wrote that Minnesota now has two choices going forward — “follow the law...

Another one! A criminal illegal alien semi-truck driver who obtained a CDL in California, killed two people in Bend, Oregon, last week after jackknifing the trailer. Per the DHS: On November 24, 2025, Rajinder Kumar, a criminal illegal alien from India, jackknifed his semi-truck and trailer blocking both lanes of U.S. Highway 20.

Sorry it’s Facebook. Maybe someone else can find this somewhere else. CA doesn’t enforce English proficiency for CDL and if they can’t speak English they perform a lower level inspection. https://www.facebook.com/reel/798064276523037
