  • You my friend are an ignorant SOB ill have you know that i have a college degree but i chose to become a truck driver. Dont you think our voices were heard in DC? Well sometimes we do work like slaves and sometimes we are under appreciated but you know what without trucks you wouldnt have a damn thing. So how about instead of bashing us you thank us or at least give us a little respect because your life depends on us to deliver everything you have whether it be food or your car!

  • kramd1 --- WHEn you have jump from 2.20$ per gallon to 5.15$ a gallon for diesel , and load prices stay the same ,,, You get less money ,, They are not protesting for nothing ,,,

  • What can we do to do more of this? This stuff works if we work it. If oil prices go down, it will be a win win for all. Everything is impacted by oil prices. Plastic materials, elastimore, roads, buidling materials, machinery that makes the stuff that we use and so on. If we can do more of this "trucker shutdown" than our corporates and politicians will act quickly to do something because we are now hitting there back pockets. Thumbs up to you truckers!!!

  • I wondered how long it would be,when I saw diesel HIGHER than regular gas.

  • at least this isnt in texas

  • I heard in around 2014 there will be a halt in this country. The truckers will go on strike. If that happens then we are screwed in this country.

  • the price will go up more

  • fuel prices ? WTF

    In australia we pay close to $5.00 US A gallon of gas.

  • if you asked me I'd say the haarp conspiracy has alot to do with gas prices. vehicles use water vapor/o2 in the combustion of gas. i notice that my car eats gas when i suspect haarp is on here. just trying to help. stop haarp and you will stop there control.

  • The government has no control over fuel prices. It's the big corporations who decide how far up our asses to shove it.

  • If these truckers want lower diesel prices then how about advocating for a price ceiing where there's legislation that will cap prices at a certain level.
