A driver is responsible for the condition of the vehicle they drive. You would refuse to drive a vehicle with faulty breaks. In the same vein, I think they should collectively refuse to trucks without proper security measures.

- matsemann 3y agoYou're not really refuting my point, which is that the truck drivers should be working on demanding stuff like this. Lobbying themselves, or as a union require certain standards before accepting a haul etc.
