This hits on one of my pet peeves.  Banning them is totally un-necessary.
Just enforce the state motor vehicle codes.  Inside of a month there 
wouldn't be a single truck driver left with a drivers license.

Especially when you finally come to realize that the design of the current
crop of 18-wheelers makes it impossible to drive them legally anywhere but
on the Interstates and they don't even drive legally there!!

And I am definitely not kidding!!
