| STOP ILLEGAL TRUCKING |

![]() | There are a significant number of trucks operating on the highways that do not have proper operating | |
| authority and proper insurance. | ||
![]() | These truckers are obtaining shipments due to the lack of knowledge on the part of the shipping public. | |
![]() | There is not awareness of this problem on the part of some enforcement and regulatory agencies. | |
![]() | Some business practices appear to be contributing to the increased number of illegal trucks on the | |
| road through their methods of matching shipper loads with shippers. | ||
![]() | Several of these businesses are performing the same function as legal brokers, but without proper | |
| broker authority, broker insurance, or broker regulatory oversight. | ||
![]() | The public does not understand the trucking regulations concerning this situation. | |
![]() | Some of these businesses may be operating without any legal or moral accountability, and that this is | |
| creating a large risk to the public. |
![]() | A trucking company and broker operating legally have government mandated costs for licensing and | |
| insurance associated with doing business. Illegal truckers and brokers do not have these costs and their cost of doing business is significantly lower as a result. Legal carriers and brokers desire a level playing field in the transportation business. | ||
![]() | We hope to get the government agencies involved, not only from the public safety point of view, but also | |
| from their own economic viewpoint as well. Each truck or broker that is operating illegally, is not paying the licensing fees that the U.S Government and States expect to be receiving from transportation companies. |
