So President Bush finally will get his way and Mexican trucks will start delivering goods all over America. This is insanity and a total disregard for the safety of American citizens driving on U.S. highways and freeways. Anyone who has spent any amount of time in Mexico, and I have spent plenty, knows just how bad many of these trucks and drivers are. Even if the equipment is checked for safety, most Mexican drivers do not understand, or know, our driving laws and procedures. DOT can't even check all the U.S. trucks for safety and driver compliance, but they can find the time to adequately inspect Mexican trucks?
Innocent Americans will die in horrible traffic accidents caused by badly maintained Mexican trucks along with poorly trained Mexican drivers. This is not a racist statement. It is fact! The death rates on Mexican highways is proof enough for that.
Shame on you Mr. Bush. What blackmail did ol' Vicente have on you anyway.
