I wish Crowell would take up the subject with his own folks. Truckers must have somebody up there taking care of them, or else you would occasionally see one getting a ticket along with the Mexicans. The death and destruction witnessed on the roads, read about in newspapers, and seen every night on television can easily be curtailed. We have laws. All we need to do is enforce the laws.
Some states do.
The excuse we get is that other states have more enforcement officers on their roads. According to the newspaper story, Georgia has only 825 compared with North Carolina's 1,445 and South Carolina's 981. Somebody found a lot of pork to pass around on the flag change, not to mention the tobacco windfall. The sad truth is we seem more interested in saving trees than saving lives. And we won't come up with pocket change to stop people from killing each other on the highway.
