In the tank

Inspectors add tankers to priority list

The crackdown --finally -- on trucker legal violations has spread to tanker trucks. Seems like a good idea, what with the two bridges destroyed by tanker explosions. The tankers aren't nearly as bad as the flatbed coil haulers. 120 coil haulers were inspected in the Birmingham area last week. 50 of them were placed out of service.

But truckers are special, holy drivers, who should not be subject to the law.
