The real way truckers could fuck with cities freight flow is simple. Sit at the pumps. I want to spread this idea around other drivers and hopefully ot gets momentum.
An idea I've been trying to push is to create gridlock / blockade / "embargo" cities or areas of cities by just driving slow... If 20 people strategically just drove 34 mph on the interstates, bridges, tunnels, beltways and bypasses, (better if you can get a compatriot to sit in the other lane doing the same) it'd grind traffic to a halt. It's a low effort / high effect form of protest.
Thats called a slow roll. Its been done. It doesn't have much effect really. Traffic jams happen all the time so it's not really memorable and state troopers will respond to solve the problem.
