More costly background checks coming ? Quote:
Homeland Security proposal would cost drivers $149
The trucking industry, already facing a shortage of drivers who feel burdened by costly mandated criminal background checks, could take another hit when the Department of Homeland Security rolls out a new program requiring drivers to undergo yet another background check.
Drivers going to and from ports would have to undergo a fingerprint-based background screening and pay $149 for an I.D. card under a new security proposal by homeland security. | http://www.buffalonews.com/editorial...17/1074017.asp |
