A variance would be a good option, if a variance process is available to the parties. If a variance process is available, I was very confident that DOT and State Patrol staff were providing that information to the trucking company. I know those agencies, and they work hard. If they were not looking into a variance process, it's because there isn't one. If there isn't one, then we would look to the legislature for that. There is no scenario that would indict the State Patrol or the DOT for their role here. Of all the parties involved, those two agencies were the ones that were certainly not at fault. They don't make the laws, and they also don't break them. If Schramm wanted to go after somebody with plausible culpability here, he would have gone after either the trucking company.....or the legislature. And quite frankly, the organization that messed up in this instance was the trucking company. Almost predictably. They broke the law. Or tried to.
