Default Transportation: The Truth About Trucks

Talking Transportation: The Truth About Trucks

By Jim Cameron
Special to WestportNow

Two years ago, in my very first Talking Transportation column, I tried to dispel the myth that our highway problems are all caused by trucks. “Let’s Blame the Trucks” attacked that common wisdom with facts that didn’t win me many friends. But that’s hardly my goal in these musings.

I'm glad to chime in with my comments. May not win me many friends among my rail-fan colleagues, but it may get auto drivers thinking.

Cheers!
