Abstract

Since early August, Maine state police have issued 1,200 summonses to truck drivers for falsifying logbooks, driving longer than the legal limit, or having safety and equipment violations. Seven overtime details have been used each week to open as many as four additional weigh stations, at a cost of $3,000 a day. The crackdown is in response to a number of fatal accidents involving fatigued truck drivers. Details, related articles.
