A POTUS, with just a pen and a phone, can make interstate possession/carry a non-issue.
Sure. Just tell him it will benefit the Mexican truck drivers, too.
The law is probably too narrow in scope. What about all the other people who work in a vehicle and are prohibited from carrying a gun by their employer who is sitting in a office: taxi drivers, delivery drivers, utility workers, craftsmen, etc?
The I-69 Corridor!
First one who ^CAN’T^ tell the cops what happened...loses!
Shoot first and then ask for names.
“as long as they adhere to local and state laws.”
Got my CCW a few years ago, at that time I realized the laws vary state to state quite a bit. Since the very nature of over the road trucking is to move between states, one would probably need a lawyer riding shotgun to make sure you were always in compliance.
If only Reginald Denny was carrying. There would be several fewer gangbangers sucking up precious oxygen.
I drove for Trailways for two years. A large number of bus passengers are crazy, druggies, or both. I couldn’t carry a gun but I did carry a telescoping baton. We had one driver stabbed. The boss had a CCW and carried when he drove.
There are several free apps that are very good for keeping you legal.
North Carolina state law, however, prohibits weapons from being carried in commercial vehicles... or it used to, anyway. I knew a DMV cop who busted truckers all the time for this.
As an OTR driver in the 1990’s, I can tell you we were forbidden to carry in the cab, concealed or otherwise.
That didn’t stop a lot of drivers, especially the owner-operators...
Tell me about it. What a difference between bus and commuter train. I normally commute in and out of Grand Central for Metro North and the passengers are mostly clean cut business people. Once I had to get to New Jersey so I got on a bus out of Port Authority station across town. Station and bus was full of smelly people in sneakers and sweatpants. Bum Central. Next time I need to get across the Hudson, I'm going Uber.
Could You name a few for the Left Coast?
Thanks
Perhaps Ryan could put it in the next budget bill so he can strip it back out for the Democrats.
Which makes civil disobedience likely.
If all else fails, go on You Tube and make your own experiments.
If you search CCW Google Play the #1 free app is CCW. There is a paid option called Posted. It is interactive and allows you to plan ahead to avoid businesses and places that are posted as no guns.
My dad always carried a .38 revolver when he drove a truck. He said the cops could kiss his rear end, he was going to protect himself regardless of what the law said.
