The numbers don’t lie - The opponents do!

May 16, 2007 General Interest

I’ve been taking some time off here at the house in Nuevo Laredo the past few days and searching for and reviewing information pertaining to the issue of Mexican trucks and discovered some amazing numbers on the FMCSA website. Numbers that the opponents of Mexican trucks or anything Mexican probably know about yet choose to ignore.

With safety the supposed big concern in not allowing Mexican truckers into the United States, the numbers from the FMCSA stats page show a startling different story.

Methinks it is time to allow the Mexican truckers free access to the United States and put some of the U.S. truckers back into training or behind the counter at McDonalds.

Take a look, especially at teh drug and alcohol violations between the Mexican and Americans

The numbers don’t lie people. Even accounting for the disparity in the number of vehicles inspected. On a percentage basis, the numbers are pretty equal.
