Trump Suspends 1938 Road Law, Gives Truckers Green Light To Move Emergency Supplies

All along America’s highways, trucks hauling vital relief supplies are cutting through red tape, thanks to President Donald Trump.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on Friday announced that a 1938 law regulating the hours of service for truck drivers was being waived on a national basis to battle the coronavirus. The agency said this was first time the rule had ever been waived .

“I will never hesitate to take any necessary steps to protect the lives, health, and safety of the American people. I will always put the well-being of America first,” Trump said, according to a White House media pool report.

The rule currently forbids truck drivers from driving more than 11 hours during a 14-hour work period. After that, drivers are required by law to have 10 hours of down time.

NJ and PA have "strongly suggested" curfew from both Governor of both states. Also non-essential businesses should close as well. Food, drug stores and such are exempt. Also suggest no eat in places and all non food serving bars close as well.

Not Marshall law but not far from it. Most people read it as MUST DO.

ABC airing special report, started with avoiding groups of ten or more. Now, bashing Trump over changes made to suggested views of CDC. But they show the liberal media correspondents at the WH briefing room taking each others temp. What a fucking joke, these news people are. Anything to spread hype, hysteria, or Trump bashing.

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
