America’s highways are facing a crisis. Foreign-born truck drivers, many here illegally, are flooding the roads. They can’t read English road signs. They crash into families. They flee the scenes of accidents. This isn’t an accident—it’s the result of reckless policies that put cheap labor over American lives.
Will Cain of Fox News calls this a “highway to hell.” He points to stories like Nathaniel Baker, a college student killed by a truck driver who’d been ordered deported years earlier. That driver shouldn’t have been here. He shouldn’t have had a license. But weak laws and lax enforcement let him stay.
The problem started under Obama. In 2016, his administration stopped requiring truckers to speak English. Now drivers hit the roads without understanding basic safety signs. Biden made it worse. He pushed to recruit refugees and others into trucking, ignoring the risks. The result? More crashes, more deaths, more chaos.
American truckers are paying the price. Shannon Everett, a trucking executive, says foreign drivers work for lower wages. They live in their trucks. They don’t get benefits. This undercuts hardworking Americans who’ve lost jobs as companies hire cheaper labor. The industry is in a recession, but foreign licenses keep rising.
Safety is collapsing. In Colorado, a deported migrant crashed a semi, killing Scott Miller. In Texas, an Ethiopian driver on a visa plowed into traffic, killing five. These aren’t isolated cases. They’re symptoms of a broken system that values open borders over safe roads.
Some states are fighting back. Arkansas wants to ban non-citizens from getting commercial licenses. But it’s not enough. The federal government keeps welcoming unvetted drivers. They ignore the danger these drivers pose to families just trying to get home safely.
The solution is clear. Restore English requirements. Deport drivers here illegally. Put American lives ahead of corporate profits. Until then, the highways will keep claiming innocent victims. Every wrecked car, every shattered family, is a reminder of failed leadership.
This isn’t about politics. It’s about survival. Common sense says only those who follow our laws and speak our language should drive deadly machines. But until America wakes up, the highway to hell will keep getting deadlier.
