The Indiana State Police’s Motor Carrier Division will be cutting half of its current work force, according to WRTV 6. The division is responsible for enforcing motor carrier laws and inspecting large trucks and school buses. According to the report, the division had 160 inspectors at one time.
There is making government lean and then there is just deciding not to enforce the laws any longer. I think we’ve probably crossed into the second category on this one.
When the hew & cry goes out it will be to privatize the service.
