I'm tired of this story and stories with this slant to it.我厌倦了这个故事,这个故事,它倾斜。 Truckers win?卡车司机赢? Last time I checked Teamsters,  PATT, CRASH and Public Citizen do not represent truck drivers in America.我最后一次检查卡车司机,帕特,撞击声和公共市民并不代表美国的卡车司机。 Teamsters have a union that represent some drivers at a few companies.卡车司机工会的代表在几家公司一些司机。 They don't have the membership or the power they used to have.他们没有成员或他们使用的权力有。

Truckers win in federal court 卡车司机赢得联邦法院
The rules, imposed in December, were supported by the trucking industry but opposed by safety advocates and the truckers' union. 这些规则,在12月实施,得到了货运业而是由安全倡导者和卡车司机工会的反对。 Eugenia Gratto, spokeswoman for the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, said the decision by the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia was a victory for workers and especially for the drivers. 欧亨尼娅Gratto,为国际卡车司机协会发言人说,由美国联邦上诉法院哥伦比亚特区的决定是对工人的胜利尤其是司机。


I know and have heard from a lot of drivers that like the new rules.我知道,从不少司机听到这样的新规则。 I (and others) think that we are forced to get more rest and it is harder to get 'creative' with your logbook.我(和其他人)认为,我们被迫得到更多的休息,这是很难得到的创意为您的日志。

After 45 days or maybe longer depending on delaying tactics by FMCSA we go back to the old rules.经过45天或可能不再取决于拖延FMCSA我们回到旧规则的策略。 I can only drive for 10 hours straight and have to take an 8 hour break instead of the new 10 hour break.我只能驾驶连续10个小时,而要接受8小时休息,而不是新的10小时休息。 Try driving 10-8-10-8 for a few days cross country.尝试驾驶几天10-8-10-8越野赛。 You're eating and showering during the time you're supposed to be sleeping.你吃并在你认为是睡眠时间洗澡。 You can say that we don't have to drive like that, but there are several companies and brokers that schedule their delivery times so you have to drive like that.可以说,我们没有这样的驱动,但也有几家公司和经纪人的安排他们的交货时间,所以你要驾驶这样。 Think about that this summer as you're driving down the highway with the kids on vacation.想想这个夏天你拉低与孩子们的假期高速公路。 And this ruling was for the drivers?这个裁决是对车手? PATT and CRASH have their own agenda of shutting down the entire industry, by only allowing drivers on the road for 8 hours and not at night.波特和崩溃有其关闭整个行业中,只允许自己的议程司机为8小时,晚上没有道路。 The Teamsters are probably only involved because the fewer hours their drivers are allowed to drive means that those companies have to hire more drivers to cover those routes, which means more union members and more union dues.卡车司机可能只需要较少的参与,因为他们的司机可以驾驶意味着这些公司不得不雇佣更多的司机,以支付这些航线,这意味着更多的工会成员和工会会费多小时。

The compromise the government came up, I thought was a good deal.政府的妥协来,我觉得这是一个很好的协议。 The actual work day was cut from 15 to 14 hours a day.每天的实际工作是从15减少到14小时。 And the big stumbling block was that once your day started, you had to stop driving after 14 hours.和大障碍是,一旦新的一天开始,你必须停止驾驶后14个小时。 No matter when or how many breaks you took.无论何时或你多少休息了。 Warehouses that took advantage of drivers for free labor loading and unloading their trucks had to schedule their trucks more efficiently and get those drivers out of there and on the road.仓库是注意到司机优势,劳动力的自由装卸的卡车已安排其卡车更有效地摆脱那些司机那里的道路。 That was great.这是伟大的。 Companies started charging for detention.公司开始为拘留收费。 It was supposed to fix the undocumented time that drivers spend on docks.这是应该解决的证件时,司机在码头上的花费。 It did a little, there were still times you had to get creative, but it was starting to change for the better.它做了一点,还有时间,你必须发挥创意,但它已开始好转。


The court sided with the groups, saying the administration “cited absolutely no studies in support” of its argument that reducing the amount of time drivers were eligible to drive would compensate for the increase in driving time. 同组片面法院,称美国政府“援引绝对没有支持其论点”的研究减少时间的司机驾驶资格将弥补驾驶时间的增加量。

How about common sense?常识怎么样? How about all the hearings with industry AND DRIVERS!如何对所有的听证会,业内的司机! Drivers had a lot of input in the process.车手们在这一过程中大量的投入。


Joan Claybrook, president of the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen, which sued over the rules, said the rule changes were made to benefit the trucking industry. 克雷布鲁克表示,在消费者权益保护团体Public Citizen,超过规定起诉总统说,规则改变了以造福于货运业。

What's good for the industry is good for drivers.什么是良好的行业是对驾车者有利。 When I'm on the road, I want to be able to work, not be stranded at some truck stop clear across the country.当我在路上的时候,我希望能够工作,而不是在某些卡车被困在全国停止明确。 Rates were being raised partly because of the new rules and teams were in demand to move freight without having to worry about the new rules.率正在提高,部分原因是新的规则和团队的需求要运动,而不用担心新规则运费。 (Teams never run out of hours under any rules.) (队永远不会没有任何规则。小时)

Instead of keeping these rules till they come up with something better, we have to go back to the old ones.而是要使这些规则直到他们想出更好的东西,我们要回到旧的。 Every company, the entire industry spent millions converting software that audits logbooks and educating drivers and staff on the new rules.每家公司,整个行业花费了数百万转换软件,审计日志和教育司机和工作人员的新规则。 I really hope FMCSA comes up with something and we stay the course and at least give the new rules a chance.我真的希望FMCSA又发表了东西,我们坚持下去,至少给新规则的机会。
