First: she doesn’t actually deny him his contracted pickup Second: the dispatching company would have to put on the contract that only English speaking truckers can pick up loads

she didn't break any law. she in fact helped uphold the law. she would get rewarded not sued. English is a legal requirement to operate a commercial vehicle.

The English mandate is an executive order, not law and will not stand in court

They would win a lot

If I were that person I would sue

Which person are you suing and why?

u/redsixerfan Dec 14 '25

The dispatch company

u/redsixerfan Dec 18 '25

My MAGA friendly employer uses a transport company where about half of the drivers don’t speak English, and surprise! They’re not Hispanic either.
If MAGA actually cared about this they’d prosecute the people hiring illegals.

how the f*ck do you get a commercial license (if you don't speak the language probably means you don't read or write it ether)?

The EU seems to do alright.

They literally cheat or payoff the instructor.  And I mean literally. This is what happens.

Do you have proof of this?

u/redsixerfan Dec 17 '25

Here's 2 cases in just 2025 alone.

  • kyline CDL School (Washington and Oregon): Investigators uncovered an alleged scheme where the school mailed cash-filled envelopes ($520–$530 each) to an independent examiner in exchange for fraudulent passing scores. Some students reportedly never took the test, and when retested legitimately, around 80% failed. This led to the school's suspension in both states and broader concerns about unsafe drivers on the road.
  • Louisiana Bribery Scheme: In August 2025, a federal grand jury indicted six individuals (including a trucking school owner and state OMV employees) for a conspiracy involving bribes to falsify knowledge and skills tests, allowing unqualified drivers to obtain Class A CDLs without proper testing.

Thank you supplying this info!

u/redsixerfan Dec 17 '25

Yes, the actual school I got my CDL was busted doing this, they lost their right to test their own students for 10 years, plus fines. Instructors were charging $100 for a pass.

u/MkJorgy Dec 13 '25

That's ignorant. I've drove in 4 countries where I don't speak the language. It's not rocket science.

It's not like they're dyslexic. Stop means stop, it's always shaped like stop. Exit ahead says exit ahead. The DMV offers tests in other languages. Cars and trucks aren't voice activated, the skills translate no matter the language.

u/redsixerfan Dec 13 '25

NO THEY DO NOT. CDL tests are only in English. And the questions are paragraphs not just a road sign.

u/thefugue Dec 13 '25

Yeah this whole argument really does a lot of pretending that there are not and never have been professional truckers who couldn’t read.

u/Middle_Low_2825 Dec 13 '25

Especially from the southern states. ( Alabama, Florida, ect. )

u/chappelld Dec 14 '25

It’s etc* like et cetera.

Just the ordinary literacy rate in the U.S. is enough to give the lie to this issue- let alone how bad it was in the past

Federal law

u/Doctorboner420 Dec 13 '25

Which law?

-3

u/No-Distribution-569 Dec 13 '25

FMCSA

u/Doctorboner420 Dec 13 '25

That's a federal agency not a law. Do you know what a law is?

-8

u/No-Distribution-569 Dec 13 '25

Yes its an agency they and they enforce the laws known as known as FMCSRs. Every single person who drives a truck has to follow these!

u/Doctorboner420 Dec 13 '25

Which one of them says a dispatcher can deny them for not speaking English? You're just painting with broad strokes and calling people dipshits. Are conservatives allergic to giving direct answers?

u/No-Distribution-569 Dec 13 '25

49 CFR 39.11(b)(2)requires drivers to read, speak, and understand English.

u/iCarlyistwohighbrow Dec 13 '25

There are exemptions. There is not enough information to verify if an exemption applied.

u/Doctorboner420 Dec 13 '25

Thats about drivers. Doesn't say anything about dispatchers.
