Hours Of Service DEBATE * USA - Trucking Cos Want Gov't to Keep Limits
U.S. trucking companies want the government to keep regulations allowing truckers to drive 11 hours in a row, rather than the previous limit of 10Washington,DC,USA -Associated Press/Forbes (NY) -4 Sept 2007: -- ... The American Trucking Associations filed a petition Friday with the federal government asking officials to issue a new version of two-year-old regulations on truckers' hours to replace regulations struck down by a court in late July... The trucking group argued that since the court's late July ruling was focused on procedural issues rather than safety concerns, the Transportation Department should keep similar regulations in place... The trade group says eliminating the two-year-old rule effective Sept. 14 would impose an expensive burden on the industry, while safety advocates say the industry is putting the public at risk by allowing truckers to drive too many hours...
