IN JAIL * Canada - Your rig could be impounded
Transportation minister supports B.C. crackdown on unsound trucks
Don Mills,Ont,CAN -The Province, by Cheryl Chan -January 20, 2008: -- B.C.'s transportation minister has a warning for owners of heavy commercial vehicles not up to safety standards: Your rig could be going to jail... The B.C. Trucking Association has been campaigning to have flagrantly unsafe trucks impounded for a minimum of 30 days... The proposed crackdown would target irresponsible truckers driving "patently unsafe" vehicles, said CEO Paul Landry... Trucks would be towed and impounded for at least 30 days -- longer for repeat offenders -- hitting the owners where it hurts most: the pocketbook... (Photograph by : Wayne Leidenfrost / The Province)
