Thank you, Chair. Through you, I want to thank all the witnesses for coming out today. It's a really important issue being brought to this committee.
My first question is for Mr. Hall.
Cambridge is a hub of the trucking sector. Many people tell me they feel uneasy when they are driving on the road with transport trucks, and even more so with the increased accidents and all the unsafe driving that is witnessed. Recently, many have been calling our northern roads a death trap.
From your experience, how would you assess the overall safety standards in the trucking sector, both in driver training and truck maintenance? What concerns do you see on the road today? Would a national strategy help resolve the issues?
