State DOT's will be prohibited from reinspecting? I remember when you claimed that they won't . . . now they will be prevented?

Interesting isn't it? No one is interested in making runs into Mexico (therefore no one is interested in making backhauls out of Mexico), but the Mexican drivers are "stealing" jobs.

Of the drivers who said they don’t want to drive in Mexico, almost all of them said their reason was fear for their personal safety. Apparently Mexican bandits routinely hijack trucks for their cargo which is then sold on the black market.

I understand that . . . I’m simply remarking that it is odd to complain that someone is stealing the job one refuses to do, for whatever reason.

On what matter have I been in agreement with them in the past?

P.S. You’re frightening me with the suggestion that I may have an “inner Teamster” :-)
