A Somali driver caught barreling an “80-ton truck” the wrong way down a Missouri highway failed an English proficiency test — and wasn’t able to read road signs, authorities said.
IMPOSSIBLE!! MM said that cannot happen!
The trucker was filmed driving south in the northbound lanes on Highway 61 near Troy, about 55 miles outside of St. Louis, at 8 a.m. Wednesday before finally crossing over and heading the right way, terrifying video shared by US Transportation Security Sean Duffy on X shows.
“We have learned that a truck driver with a Minnesota CDL who couldn’t read basic road signs spent MILES driving the wrong way in an 80 TON truck!” Duffy wrote on Wednesday.
Me thinks you can’t read or understand English, because I never said what you wrote that I said. Which doesn’t surprise me as a large percentage of the MAGA base is illiterate."Street signs need no translation."

A: How is that possible? The education system is run by the government, and is frankly, quite a Democrat dominated system.

Additionally, I agree AI is a bit left leaning, but it is a mild left compared to Foxnews which is way way far out to the right. That’s petty much all LC quotes is Foxnews.
Driving a truck is not rocket science, far from it. Regardless, all drivers should have a rudimentary understanding of the English language. Be careful what you wish for, even crop pickers need to have some basic understanding of the English as well, and we need them to pick our crops. Perhaps the same with over the road drivers who transport our goods.
