in trucking news.... slow roll, and ironically, brake safety inspection finds 10% of the inspected failed. Plus some brain dead moron thought he'd get away with booting trucks, and demanding 600 dollars to remove the boots


The Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) released the results from an unannounced single day brake inspection campaign that took place throughout North America in April. During the single day effort, a total of 6,829 commercial motor vehicles were inspected. Officers discovered brake-related critical vehicle inspection items on 11.3% of the vehicles inspected


a slow roll along Interstate 465 around Indianapolis on Wednesday, May 17th in hopes of spreading awareness about the financial hardships the low rates are creating for owner operators



Police said Isreal sat in a Georgia gas station parking lot, the same parking lot where he was booting drivers, watched truckers park along a curb where the station allowed them to park overnight, waited for them to fall asleep, then booted tires around 3 a.m. He then told the drivers they would have to pay $600 to get the boot removed

Israel already had a warrant out for him, yeah, shocking, I know. 

Israel is now facing two charges, theft by deception and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. An officer decided to drive through the truck stop and found him there, waiting to prey on other drivers. At first, Israel told police he worked for the city of South Fulton. He then said he worked for the City of Atlanta.
