I don't think those have as much affect. Because point 1 went into affect in 2008 and point 2 truckers are exempt.

The very fact-check you link to says:

> industry experts said that some owner-operators sought work elsewhere. Some fleets, too, chose to stop doing business with owner-operators in California.

where "stop doing business" is a link to an article about people doing just that.

And the "exemption" you mention is a temporary injunction that may be lifted at any time, which is not conducive to a stable business relationship.
