US to announce Mexico trucking plan soon-LaHood

[JC5123]

I agree with border inspections also.

Haz said: I don't know, Haz.  If we have a few multi-car fireballs caused by Mexi-trucks, that might just open the eyes of a few more sheeple to the idiocies promoted by the Odamna regime.  It would certainly be bad news for the Americans involved in the fireballs, but it just might tip the scales to the common sense side of the equation for many others.

Sorry CR, that won't work.

Some years back, there was a horrendous fireball wreck in southern Wisconsin - minivan carrying a pastor, his wife and 4-5 of his kids blew up. The pastor and his wife survived, the kids did not. Think about being in the pastor's place.

Turns out witnesses saw metallic debris coming off an 18-wheeler that apparently punctured the gas tank of the minivan. Driver of the 18-wheeler was an illegal on a bought Illinois CDL. This was how they found out the rampant crime that existed in the Secretary of State's office in Illinois that ultimately brought down Governor George Ryan, who was Secretary of State when the CDLs (plural, many of them) got sold.

There is already precedent. Won't matter in bho's drive stampede toward making the US of A a world mediocrity and bring on the NWO.

Since in my opinion Obama is a illegal maybe he should take up residency in Mexico he seems to put them above our laws and citizens.

The 'border inspections' will help but from my past reading of this agreement these trucks will be free to 'roam' the US once here.

Canada trucks can deliver to the US or can pick up in the US and deliver to Canada but NOT US to US.  My understanding is the Mexican trucks WILL be able to do US to US so once they're here they will be running free all over the place.

Based on the ones already here, I'd say that sounds about right.

Send them to Minnesota!  It has been said that the only thing that will scare a pro hokey player come out of the ref's mouth in the middle of a fight ... "Let them fight."  In Minnesota nothing strikes fear in the hearts of truckers like the maroon Suburban and their occupants on the side of the road.

This should never happen,

One scary thought.  Haz, when you said "free to roam the U.S." did you mean they are not limited to normal inspections?

If so, what happens if a State Trooper doesn't understand Mexican for "Diplomatic Immunity" 

Is this like when Mel Gibson didn't understand that phrase

M58, They would be subject to normal random inspections like all commercial vehicles but there are MANY ways around those. (avoid scales for one)

As far as English to get a US drivers license (commercial) you are SUPPOSED to be able to communicate in English.

I assume the trucks would go through customs inspection at the border and the occupants would have to have legal access to the US?

I ass/u/me the trucks would go through customs inspection at the border and the occupants would have to have legal access to the US?

Bad idea.
