We continually work with our trucker clients to find ways to make them safe on the road, so when we found this article it surprised us. According to the California Highway Patrol 1 in 3 trucks are too dangerous for the road, based on 2010 inspection records. In fact, in the first nine months of this year, the Banning facility -- considered the main hub for commercial trucks heading into or out of California -- have recorded 38,879 equipment violations, 13, 724 traffic citations, 2,734 driver violations and 582 driver license problem that included revoked or suspended licenses!
