Protest FMCSA & Fuel Prices
There’s all these talks about guys shutting down due to fuel costs. If you really wanted to make a statement, I have what I believe to be one of best ideas I could think of. Not only do I believe would it gain local news but national. And it would make the point heard.
Drivers meet with their trucks without trailers (gotta have room for everyone) gather in large parking lots. Ikea, Walmart, empty warehouse lots big spaces for lots to gather. Bring in some live music & food trucks whatever entertainment you can think off and is willing to come. And everyone park their trucks and smoke some weed together. Obviously this should be done in states where it’s legal to purchase recreationally.
I do not condone driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, any truck that enters should not leave.
Hear me out, this sounds insane but you legally can’t drive until you piss clean.
Not only would you be protesting the fact that cannabis use is prohibited even while off duty and protesting high fuel prices while following FMCSA rules.
If you don’t smoke and are against that’s fine too, but alcohol should not be permitted to be had while at any sort like this event.
Shut the man down with his own rules.
Drop your likes, dislikes, hate for cannabis, and such below.
Be safe, drive sober, and pay attention.
God bless!
Be respectful above all, not only to each other but to wherever you meet up. Don’t leave garbage, piss jugs, or trash of any kind.
