Dear Editor,

RE: Calgary alderman calls for steeper fines for engine brake use, www.trucknews.com.

These people need an education. What about the annoying Harley Davidson’s, loud mufflers on sports cars, etc.

The only reason they are picking on trucking is that we are easily seen by the public as some sort of menace on the road. How sad is that?

Here is a Web site to visit: http://www.jakebrake.com/pdf/ordinance_letter.pdf.

I suggest Calgary city council read it and then decide from there whether or not they are doing the right thing. Mufflers should be used.
