Letter: On truck safety
Have either of the candidates running for secretary of state said if they will enforce the truck plates based on the gross vehicle weight rating of the trucks. Currently, there are at least half of the trucks F250/2500 and F350/3500, that have "B" plates and should have C or D. Many of them should be having safety inspections and are not because of this. Do people have to wait for another van of kids to be burned to death, before anything is done.
