Contact Your Congressman and Senator


Our elected officials have various ways of receiving messages from their states and districts. Almost all use a zip code filter to assure that only their constituents get through. Click here and follow the instructions to contact your elected officials. Please be sure to mention Road Safe America's desire for safer highways and the need for speed limiters and Electronic-On-Board-Recorders for heavy trucks.


Sample language:

As a citizen travelling on America's roadways with heavy commercial trucks often weighing 80,000 pounds in a comparatively very small passenger vehicle, I implore you to support the mandated use of speed limiters and electronic on-board recorders on all heavy commercial vehicles. This legislation will protect me and my family from totally preventable death and injury, and provide trucking companies and the overall economy a much needed boost by saving on fuel consumption, air pollution, vehicle wear and tear, and highway shut downs and delays. Thank you in advance for your endorsement of these rules.

The drivers of large commercial vehicles, we believe, have at least as much responsibility for the safety of the public as do airline pilots. After all, we buy tickets to voluntarily get on commercial aircraft. However, all of us share the public roadways on a daily basis.
