@ProPublica I'm an engineer in one of these industries. An expert in compliance.

I used to get a bit excited when I would see notices of a PHMSA update.

Now my heart catches on my throat in fear.

@ProPublica What do the cameras do if you put multiple fake plates alongside the real ones? If they pick up all the plates, you could really mess with them with 8-10 copies of a plate out there registering physically impossible routes.
