It's just like EOBR, speed limiters and every other sort of regulation the big carriers want to foist on everyone. They always get what they want. I said it on another forum and it's worth repeating here even though it's slightly off topic. Anyone that thinks EOBR was dreamt up by mega carriers because of safety is really drinking the cool aid. That was pushed so they could contrive an artificial capacity crunch. You read in the logistics articles that's what all the transport people are talking about, a looming capacity crunch when these regs go into effect. A contrived artificial boost to the rates. Doesn't have anything to do with real economic growth. Basically just using government as a tool to leach. But hey, those of us willing to put up with it and adapt benefit I guess.
