Comment | I have been struggling to be in compliance and stay in compliance with all of the regulations. I have spent millions of dollars to comply by the given deadlines and now you are trying to reward the ones who are not in compliance by giving them more time. I already lost jobs to the truckers not in compliance because they can run cheaper. If you pass this new regulation and extend time to those not in compliance it will put me out of business. Their are truckers out there that are requesting from their banks a loan denial just so they can have more time and run their older trucks. We have already experienced this from one of our subhaulers who knows he can keep running with this letter and the new regulation for another 3+ years. He will now go direct to my customers at a cheaper rate. I will lose my customers. When it was time for me to be in compliance I did so or I would of had to shut down or run my trucks out of compliance. I am in compliance because this is my business I was expecting all other truckers to be doing the same and that way keep an even playing field. This new regulation will change the playing field and give the edge to the ones that chose to ignore the laws, thereby causing me to lose my customers and my lively hood. |
