Truck drivers face a severe shortage of legal, safe and well-lit parking places even as safety regulators have mandated that they must stop, park and rest more often.

Has 2014 comes to an end it has been a very frustrating year for Jason’s Law for the drivers and our family. But has our family promised from day 1 we are not going anywhere until it is perfect. We have not handed Jason’s Law off to any organization to handle we are still working on it ourselves, along with you drivers and will continue to. Our family has some ideas we are working on to make Jason’s Law truly be implemented in 2015. I ask all of you gentleman and ladies to please keep the faith in us; it is going to take at least a couple of months to get these ideas put together and under way. As soon as they are you will be the first to know what we are doing. I truly appreciate all of you drivers and family members of the drivers. I wish each of you a Happy and Healthy New Year!!

I have a vent and no it will not be politically correct!! A few weeks ago all we got to hear from all the political big wigs, and “powerful people” on all the major news outlets how HOS need to be tightened due to the semi hitting a limo which had a “star” in it. Really tightening more stupid rules is not going to solve the problem. Let’s use some common sense if the trucks don’t have a place to park how are they going to obeyed by these “rules”?
Most of us have heard about the senseless murder of driver Mike Boeglin (which if anyone did research is the 4th murder done this way in the past 30 days in Detroit). But you don’t see any of the people or media stations that was calling for stricter HOS saying anything about how we need to get shippers and receivers’ to let drivers park on the property, or just simply proved these men and women with safe parking. What a concept.. Might make it so these driver have less fatigue, and actually can obeyed by the HOS and return home safely to their loved one.
I am sure most of these “powerful” people live in up scale neighbor hoods, so they don’t have to worry about criminal activity. I wonder how they would “rest” if they knew prostitution, drug deals, and murders were happening out side their homes while they were “resting”?
Wake up people EVERYONE no matter what their social status had SOMEONE that love them. Everyone’s life is just as important as the next persons.
Mr. Schumer seeing you were one of the people calling for tougher HOS’s how about you help get implanted a bill you introduced back in 2009 like Congressman Tonko is trying to.
To the family of Mr. Boeglin I am so very sorry for your loss. I am sorry your child will grow up only knowing their father from stories. I am sorry a very happy time in your life’s has been darkened with sadness.

I fight for what I believe in and fight against what I am against, which in this case is Bullying.
After reading “The Report” and my own little encounter with Mrs. Ethington I have decided to start this petition for removing her from her job incase the B.O.S. need a little push!! I do understand she may of not known who she was talking to (which makes it worse) but to... call me a “sopping wet, dime store call girl” shows me what a inappropriate childish bully she is! Here is the link pages 3-5! http://poll.pollcode.com/rgky5_result?v Read for yourself and tell me that she is not “The Libertarian”.
No one has to agree with me on this it is my opinion and my feelings!! Here is the link to the petition if you would like to sign it. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/cassandraethington/
Please only sign if you are a Schoharie County Resident! Thank You.

Truck drivers are providing a service. They are 1% serving the 99%, do we not have an obligation to keep them safe as we would our armed service members who serve overseas to protect us? Are we not obligated to provide them with safe haven when they have completed a day of service to our country? Th...
