Illegal Aliens Not Able To Renew CDLs After Trump Closed Loopholes California Was Exploiting

Posted • October 14, 2025: Remember back in August, when Indian native Harjinder Singh steered his truck to make an illegal U-turn using an ‘Official Use Only’ area on the Florida Turnpike? A minivan collided with the trailer, and the driver and two passengers died. Singh was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide. It turned out that Singh was an illegal alien who had obtained a commercial driver’s license in California. We're not sure which local news station did this sob story with truck driver Vivak Sharma, who went to get his commercial driver's license renewed (we're assuming in California), but was denied thanks to new rules that limit CDLs to American citizens and US residents. —— Non US citizens are suddenly not able to renew their CDLs after the Trump administration closed loopholes that Gavin Newsom’s California was exploiting. The DOT is singling out California for what it calls "gross negligence." It says more than 25% of CDLs given to noncitizens or non-permanent residents were improperly issued.

➡️ Guy has been in the country ten years and can’t speak a word of English. ➡️ Is sending his money out of the country back to India. This is their sob story? → 8 years being here. → Can't even muster up basic English. → Claiming asylum from a country not at war. → Sending his money back to India. → On our streets hauling 80k lbs. They all have to go back. Can I just point out that English is 1 of the 2 nationally recognized languages of India & that “Sharma” is a Hindu Brahmin surname? How can he not speak English & what possible asylum claim can he be making? Can he read English? That's kind of important when you're doing long hauls on the interstate. The key words in this interview are where he mentions sending money home to India. The asylum claims are all bullshit. They come here to drive trucks and send what they make back home. When they return they live off of what they earned here. Start taxing remittances now. (…)
