A new poll released this week suggests Americans strongly support legislation to roll back some parts of the Hours of Service rule. In particular, a survey conducted by Lake Research Partners shows 80 percent of those polled are against Congress “raising the number of hours a semi-truck driver is allowed to work in a week from 70 to 82 hours,” which is “more than twice the normal work week for most people,” as worded in the survey.
Details of the survey, including a press release are available at http://saferoads.org/files/Press%20Release.pdf.
