To deceive is to lie. If that
is true then their response is a lie. All 18 wheel tractor trailers weigh
over 18,000 pounds. They always have been exempt, and there are
thousands of them located in and passing thru Louisville every day. So to
exempt them proves this program is not about cleaning the air, but about
money.
They knew exactly what I was
referring to in my letter, yet they try to continue to decieve the
public. Diesel fumes cause cancer. Simple as that. To exempt some
diesel viehicles due to their weight is a fraud and a con game to extract
money from automoible owners.
Notice how cleverly they talk
about buses instead of simply admitting,
WE DON'T CHECK BUSES EITHER!
Cheers, Woody Below is my
letter and their response.

EPA REPORT AND
THE VET
Woody Oakes
The
Environmental Protection Agency has issue a report stating, “Diesel
exhaust from large trucks and other sources probably causes lung cancer”
and “a chronic respiratory hazard to humans.”
These vehicles
have always been exempt from the VET.
That leaves me
only one thing to say to The Courier-Journal, County Judge Executive
Rebecca Jackson, VET Director Art Williams and other misguided supporters
of the Vehicle Exhaust Test program,
TOLD YOU
SO!!!!
