Electronic On Board Recorders

The Federal Motor Carriers Administration in the U.S. announced that EBOR's are being considered for use on trucks operated by companies and drivers who are repeat offenders of Hours of Service rules.At first glance of this rule alot of drivers and companies will think it is a good idea,but look at it from this perspective once the first step is completed it will only be a matter of time till all trucks are required to have EBOR's.At this moment the Ontario Trucking Association and Canadian Trucking Alliance are starting to call out that to put EBOR's on only repeat offenders trucks would be unfair they should be installed on all trucks.If this happens every minute of everyday of a driver's day will be tracked electronically.A majority of drivers say speed limiters will never be forced on them,well EBOR's are on their way now too.Small trucking companies and owner operators are going to be saddled with another unneeded expense,sure they are saying there will be incentives to install them but we've all been lied to before.The OTA and CTA want to go to the European style of trucking well here's your chance EBOR's record a variety of information" drivers name,exact hours that driver has worked and the exact hours he/she has sat and exact miles travelled."If the OTA and Cta want to be industry leaders as they claim put the first step forward THROW OUT THE ANTIQUATED PAID FOR THE MILE AND PERCENTAGE SCHEMES AND START PAYING FOR EVERY HOUR THAT DRIVER IS IN CHARGE OF THAT VECHILE AND QUIT HIDING BEHIND ANTIQUATED LAWS THAT CREATE AN ARTIFICIAL MARKETPLACE.Trucking companies in the USA and Canada have used these laws far to long to get cheap labour all at expense of hard working drivers and owner operators.

407 E.T.R.

An update to earlier posts on the Electronic Theft Road just spoke to a service represenative from the Theft Road over a bill I just received I asked if I could receive the image of the plate that is alleged to have been used to travel the 407!GUESS WHAT THEY CAN'T PRODUCE THAT IMAGE"SURPRISE SURPRISE"WOULD THAT NOT BE LIKE A CREDIT CARD COMPANY DEMANDING PAYMENT FOR AN ALLEGED BILL AND NOT BEING ABLE TO PRODUCE SOME FORM OF PROOF YOU ACTUALY OWE THAT BILL?How many people just pay these bills to escape the harrassment of the 407,when the bill is not even theirs to begin with?One would be better off to let the 407 or their merry band of collection agencies(NOR-DON INCLUDED)to take them to small claims court and produce their proof you actualy used their highway.PRODUCE THE IMAGE OF THE PLATE # OR SHUT UP!WE CAN ALL THANK MIKE HARRIS AND THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY FOR THIS FIASCO.AND IF ONE LOOKS AT THE FRONT ROW OF STEPHEN HARPERS CAUCUS WE STILL HAVE ABOUT FOUR OF THEM STILL ...
