The Governor of Illinois got arrested today. Great news for truck drivers! A few years ago, the Legislature of Illinois approved raising the speed limit to 65mph for trucks and the Governor vetoed the bill, supposedly because the roads were too bad for trucks to go 65mph. What a crock of BS. If the roads couldn’t meet the standards for trucks to go 65mph, then they wern’t built and maintained properly with the taxes levied for them. Probably another case of Illinois corruption in using the road funds for other things. All the Governors veto did,was to cost each truck driver lost wages while driving in Illinois and opened us up to extra speeding tickets when the state needed extra revenue. Hopefully the Governor spends a long time in jail and loses as much income as he cost us truck drivers.
Keep on Truckin
