Per KTTV, a couple of trucks have been moved on I-5, however, there are no keys in any of these trucks, and quite possibly no distributor wires. At least one trucker was seen reaching under the hood of his truck after stopping it.

KTTV has video of the truckers hopping into an SUV with a banner protesting gas prices on the back, then taking off.

"quite possibly no distributor wires."

Unlikely, since diesel trucks have no distributors.

Diesel rigs don't have distributors, so you can bet not a one of them has distributor wires. And diesel rigs don't burn gas. That's why they're called "diesel." Of course, you can always yank out something else to keep the engine from running, but it won't be distributor wires.
