Comment
 I have been watching this rule for the last two years and find it
hard to follow what you guys are saying. I am 31 years old and have
been riding in and around trucks since I was born. I have perfectly
healthy lungs. You say truckers are pron to lung cancer due to PM
levels but you people dont realize 70% of truckers smoke some 2-3
packs a day. I am a diesel mechanic and you say mechanics are not
as vulnerable as drivers , due you think they run the exhaust pipe
in the cab of their truck ? How does PM get in the cab when you are
driving down the road? your study I believe is a complete joke!!!
you are after the trucking industry because it generates revenue!
Smoking cigaretes causing lung cancer you idiots and asthma thats
medicine 101, second hand smoke causes asthma. a nasty burning car
will choke you out before a truck. AB32 says that you want PM
levels of 1990 , but all trucks then burned dirty nothing like to
1994 and newer trucks , You people make absolutly no sense .
Technology will clean the air as it takes its course. what happens
when the trucks burn clean and trucks were not the problem will you
credit back all my customers money they spent on your dumb rule?
THATS WHAT I THOUGHT this is all about money(STUPID CALIFORNIA)
