How are you going to fire them in CA especially since they’ve been exempted from the ohsa mandate by the department of labor, unlike the healthcare workers. It’s be easier to lift the truck requirement, I believe even pickup trucks in these states are affected. >Carriers domiciled in California with trucks older than 2011 model, or using engines manufactured before 2010, will need to meet the Board’s new Truck and Bus Regulation beginning in 2020 or their vehicles will be blocked from registration with the state’s DMV, the state has said. >The new “health-based requirements” will need to be met before a driver is allowed to register his or her truck through the Department of Motor Vehicles, CARB says. A new enforcement tool used by the DMV beginning in 2020 will automatically block 2010 and older trucks from registration. These engines can last hundreds of thousands of miles, so you buy one in 2009 to become an independent driver and the truck if taken care of should last 15-20 years. Now you’ve fucked the small guy who can’t afford to get a new one. They sold them cheap to Washington, then Washington enacted the same law rinse, repeat with Oregon. >A semi truck, on the other hand, lasts upwards of 750,000 miles – and some semis have hit the million mile mark! When you consider the average mileage of 45,000 miles per year, that means you can expect around 15-20 years for your trusted truck.
