Breathing Banned

Today's Thoughts 10/08/11 Dateline 2020 Breathing Banned

The FMCSA declared today in a bid to end every distraction that drivers of commercial motor vehicles vehicles out on the highway might be distracted by, that breathing was the last thing on the agenda that needed to be addressed. In 2015, distractions such radios and any sort of gauge on the dashboard had already been removed. Just a year later the FMSCA outlawed side mirrors due to the fact that they took the drivers attention away from the traffic outside the windshield. That seemed a funny thing to many because soon after that the FMSCA outlawed windshields due to the fact that drivers were distracted by the mountains and lakes and other such scenery that one might pass in their travels.

When asked why the FMCSA was banning breathing behind the wheel of commercial motor vehicles. The director explained that they found the main cause of distraction to be a living human being with a life behind the wheel of the vehicle. If they could push the breathing amendment through, then all that would be left driving the trucks would be cadavers. That no matter what may happen; a cadaver simply cannot be distracted from their main goal of driving the truck.

The director was also asked as to why the FMCSA simply did not insist on higher standards as to who can become a truck driver or perhaps actually training a driver properly so that they knew and understood how to handle distractions behind the wheel of their eighteen wheeler truck. At this point the interview had to be called to an end as the director was unable form any intelligible remarks. It is this reporter's opinion that the sensible option offered simply short circuited the government employees' brain and he was no longer able to function as a unit.

Ok…  enough picking on the big guy up top. My point is that no matter how safe we become. No matter how many lives we save. They will never admit that truck drivers are the number one key to safer highways. If you regulate them to the point that they cannot breath, safe and legal truck drivers will simply die and go away leaving only the renegades that ignore the laws out on the highway. Please help safe and legal truck drivers survive in this industry. I promise you, it will save lives.

Be safe peeps …
