Wisconsin toll and VMT study nixed

Jul 17, 2019

Wisconsin’s Governor vetoes a toll and VMT – or vehicle miles traveled – study. Also, the FMCSA allows truckers more time to comment on a possible pilot program allowing interstate truckers under age 21.  Meanwhile, the Texas DOT has a plan to extend Interstate 27 – and a proposal to improve the state’s port-of-entry wait times. We’ll have some important notices from the Land Line Now Community Bulletin Board. And a new federal rule permanently bans anyone convicted of human trafficking from driving a truck.
