Why would they?
They don't care.
And, you know, they hire migrants and people that don't know any better.
And, you know, they backdoor into their electronic logging devices.
Yeah, this is another honor thing, okay?
So in 2017, American truckers were forced to accept into their trucks this thing called the electronic logging device, right?
It's supposed to manage your hours and make it so that you can't cheat on your hours and just keep working.
The justification was safety.
And it turns out that it has not improved safety.
In fact, it has made it worse.
And because of the self-certification process with electronic logging device providers, you can just sort of sign off and say to the government, yep, we met all of your requirements.
Meanwhile, there's a guy in an office in Serbia who you text on Telegram when you say, hey, man, I'm almost out of my hours.
And they like backdoor into the ELD, rewrite everything, and then you just keep driving.
And roadside enforcement people have no way of catching that.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's exactly what's going on.
And I mean, even before we became wise to the fact it was being subverted by these foreign actors working in our trucking industry, the ELD mandate never accounted for the incentive structure for drivers, many of whom only get paid by the mile, are constantly being delayed.
And so, you know...
If you hold them up and they only get to drive so many hours a day and they're only being paid by the mile, they end up driving like maniacs, right?
So there was a study done by Overdrive Online, a trucking magazine, in conjunction with these other guys, and it proved that after the ELD mandate, all of the safety concerns it was said to solve, you know, aggressive driving, guys driving tired, guys speeding, guys getting in crashes, all of that stuff went up after the ELD mandate was imposed.
