Astoria residents are really at a disadvantage if we lose this lifeline into Manhattan. I use this bus on the many weekends - like the Memorial Day weekend coming up - when the N doesn’t go into the city. We’re getting short shrift here again.
Diane supported: Save the Q101 Bus Service to ManhattanPlease join the effort to save our direct bus route to Manhattan! By signing the petition, we can ensure that seniors and disabled individuals continue to have easy access to the city, without being forced to take multiple buses.
Eva supported: Save the Q101 Bus Service to ManhattanThank you for putting this together. You can only grade a road so often without actually putting down new material. To expect the road to magically fix itself, is mind blowing. Due to the amount of new homes built over the last 10 years, additional traffic, heavy trucks traveling down the road, and lack of material, it’s impossible to think without paving the road the roads will “magically” get better. The pot holes are ridiculous and the road is embarrassing. Let’s get it done.
Ceven supported: Urgent Action Needed: Pave County Road 975 North for Health and SafetyBeing a truck driver myself (with 1 million safe miles) i see so many flaws in the system when it comes to the people who control the trucking industry. I think it's time to have a real experience in the seat.
Brian supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorOwner operator age 36 been around trucks all my life.. the eld put my father out of business… freight brokers making more then the truck owner… rates to a braking even mark.. we need help
Jermery supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorNewer Owner Op. been driving since 2022, and while I cannot speak from the same level of experience, I can speak from the POV as someone who grew up around the industry.
Until the FMCSA can put someone in charge that has experienced the issues we face on a daily basis, our industry will continue to be as dangerous as everyone claims it is.
We need real experience, a real driver in this position. Someone who has lived, breathed, eaten, and slept on the very roads that an FMCSA administrator is charged with securing.
Michael supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorI have been a truck driver for over 20 years. This is a much needed change. You cannot understand what laws are needed or not needed unless you have had experience driving in this field.
Frank supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorI do believe we need someone in this office that really understands trucking is not just a job, it's also a life. Beurocrats and lawyers will never understand what this job takes. Only someone who has spent alot of time behind the wheel would. So, yes. We need a driver in this office
Keith supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorSafety manager here, specifically Elogs. The current rules force drivers to work when tired and are extremely inflexible. Rules seem like they are put in place by people who have never driven OTR.
Juan supported: Driver for FMCSA AdministratorI have been driving truck for 21 years I've watched it go from good to bad to worse and as a fellow driver out here we all say we need somebody who knows the industry running the industry not somebody that went to college and is good putting things on paper they need to know the grind that we go through the heartaches we go through the hardships we go through having a fellow driver running FMCSA would help the truck and Industry tremendously
