    Mexican Trucks and Bus's

    Here is a good reason why Law makers shouldn't let Mexican trucks and bus's be okay to drive in the USA.

    Re: Mexican Trucks and Bus's

    You forgot to add "HELL NO", of which is the way I would have voted if it was in the Poll above.

    So, I chose NO.

    Now, I'm going to clear my cookies and vote NO again, and again, and again, and again............

    OVM this bus was running illegal in the good old USA. That was reported on the news. Your missing the point, it went over your head like a 747.

    Re: Mexican Trucks and Bus's

    What about allowing Van Nuys, CA based tour bus companies to run in the US?

    This bus was running illegal in the good ol' USA, because the FMCSA denied the California company its Interstate Common Carrier application, and thus is illegal to carry passengers on that bus within any state outside the state of California. If the bus had been empty, it would have been legal (except for the safety violations it has incurred, of course).

    Nope, no way. Keep them out. They are too far behind in safety etc. This will cost the US and Canada jobs, many jobs. Keep out!!

    Re: Mexican Trucks and Bus's

    This thread really doesn't make sense. The article is about a U.S. based bus that went into Mexico, then came back to the U.S. Did you actually read the article Bruno? Los Angeles, Ca. is in the U.S.

    LA is in the US? Been there lately? LOL!!! I am not even sure if California is in the US any longer. I mean, just look how you have to pass through their border guards to get in to that place. Man, kinda like trying to get into East Germany when it was around.

    I hear ya! I put that fancy hydraulic suspension on my truck so I can bounce the front end up and down and fit in with the locals next time I go. I also got some HUGE pants that'll hang half way down my massive rear end.

    You might have to learn to read and write in 17 different languages, strut like a rooster and hold your "private area" while walking down the street. Don't forget to wear your "black hoodie" when the sun is blazing and it is 100 degrees out.

    the nice people from La Raza or MS13.......

    And as most of us have encountered down in the border towns doing cross docks with trucks coming up from mexico, most are not what any of us would want to spend more then a ride across the yard in...No...refuse them entry....as for the chicken under the arm.....hmmmmm.... they do make good soup....
    There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.
