Truckers roll into DC as part of 3-day ride for the Constitution

WASHINGTON - Hundreds of truckers were seen rolling slowly into Washington DC on the first full day of their protest rally to the nation's capitol.

The national Truckers Ride for the Constitution started officially at 5 pm on Thursday and is expected to last all weekend as a protest to regulations, the debt ceiling, President Obama and "corruption," the organizers say.

Already, dozens of photos and video from traffic cameras show the truckers having an effect on traffic – some images show the big rigs occupying all lanes of the DC beltway and slowly driving with stacks of cars behind them. However, some media are reporting that the response has been mixed.

Although much of the protest seems to be about blocking traffic, many supporters were seen on overpasses, along side the road with signs and in other vehicles with the group's Twitter hashtag T2SDA.

...


"Four commercial vehicles began driving side-by-side across all four northbound lanes of I-495 on the Inner Loop slowing traffic to 15 mph. Virginia State Police stopped the four tractor-trailers at the 53 mile marker (Fairfax County) and warned them not to impede traffic," Virginia State Police told WTOP in a statement.

6. No one could tell the difference from the regular traffic from what I gather.....

- In other words, another Tea Party success story. Or at least that's how they'll tell it.....

The idea was to shut down the traffic.

Saying something like: Remember CS&N's song Four Dead in Ohio? Well how about Four Dead in Benghazi? Typical Fox News/Glen Beck Moron.
