One can argue that they do this because they consider these laws unjust and they are being compassionate. My pessimist view is California mass issued CDLs to foreign workers so they could help drive down trucker wages. I feel it all comes down to money. There was a big fear several years back of a severe trucker shortage looming and companies would be forced to dramatically crease per-mile pay. They found their loophole in the form of importing truckers.

The best part is that nobody really noticed what California did for years. These people are on the open road unseen and constantly on the move. They are dispersed onto the highway system so they were able to do it quietly.

I myself didn't notice it until I started seeing a dramatic increase in truckers doing dangerous things while I was on long road trips that I never saw in years past. The change was noticeable. It was not until I started researching that I realized what was going on. Then of course the tragic accident in FL brought it to national attention and here we are.

So what now? What do we do?
