Mexico gets serious about cross border trucking issue

The Mexican government apparently is damned serious about trying to force the U.S. government to present it’s intentions in regards to the cross border trucking controversy. Sources close MTO have indicated that Mexico is considering rotating its list of U.S. products subject to retaliatory tariffs by early 2011 if the Obama administration fails to present a proposal for resolution of the cross border trucking provisions that would provide Mexican carriers quid pro quo access to US markets. The Mexican government will use all legal means to force the U.S. to comply with the trucking provisions of NAFTA, which the US ….Read More

Revisiting some of the myths about Mexican trucks, Mexican drivers and the Cross Border programs

As the Obama administration prepares to keep their promise to fulfill our obligations under the NAFTA agreement, concerning cross border trucking with Mexico, I thought it was time to revisit some of the misinformation and distortions the opposition has used in the past and is for certain to use in the future. We’ve all grown accustomed to the lies spewing from the lips of Teamsters General President James Hoffa, “All we’re asking is that Mexican trucks and truckers meet the same standards as American trucks and drivers,” Hoffa said. He cited the requirements in the United States for commercial drivers’ ….Read More

Explaining the Cross Border Program to Joe 6 pack American

When it comes to the Mexican Cross Border truck program, everyone seems to be trying to get on the bandwagon or use the issue to boost their rankings. It doesn’t seem to matter if they get their facts right. To the contrary, most think it is cute to pass along the misinformation that has been generated by the Unions, self styled “drivers association” who back pedal and double step away from the real issues confronting truckers today. The Mexican truck issue is a non issue. So, it seems we have yet another one popping up out there in the blogosphere, ….Read More

I’ve been thinking about translating various laws and regulations governing Mexican commercial carriers for some time, and I still may do it, but for now, I’ll point ya’ll towards the information and you can translate it yourself. Not that I expect many to let the facts get in the way of their opinions. Licencia Federal de Conductor Despite what some would have you believe, the Mexican CDL or Licencia Federal, is not readily available on every street corner in Mexico. That’s not to say there are not some good fakes, but none of them are listed in the LFIS database ….Read More

First Truck to operate in Mexico

Editors Note: For all the hype and hysteria that has been thrown around out there by the critics of this program, the exaggerations, the bald faced lies, “poor roads” “bandits” , “corrupt cops”, “no drug testing program”, a picture is worth a thousand words, something no one in their right mind can dispute. And seen from the eyes of the owner of Stagecoach, as he debunks more myths of the program, and further raises the credibility of Mexico Trucker, as he confirms what I have been saying for more than a year! I realize the opposition would like for it ….Read More
