Nationwide standards are going way up , it will soon be uniform standards for every state... used to be you could go to Texas or Alabammy etc and drive a truck in two days.
That sleezy trucker everyone thinks of is still out there, but he is more and more being replaced by well trained people that not only care about themselves, but you fellow travelers even more.
