Tires * USA - Florida mulls banning retreads on trucks
Tallahassee,Fl,USA -Today's Trucking -31 Jan 2007 - The Tire Retread Information Bureau (TRIB) has responded to a bill introduced by Florida State Senator Victor D. Crist that would prohibit the use of retreaded tires on most commercial vehicles on Florida highways... The state bill, S912, "prohibits the use of recapped or retreaded tires on truck tractors, pole trailers or semi-trailers operated on public roads, streets, or highways of this state." If approved, the ban would take effect July 1, 2007, according to Harvey Brodsky, managing director of TRIB..."We believe this bill would greatly impede the retread and trucking industry in Florida and would create havoc with out of state trucks coming into Florida," Brodsky wrote in an email to Crist...
