This sounds more like an OSHA thing than a union thing. I don't know anything about OSHA regulations with respect to big trucks except that they exist, but since they exist I'm willing to bet "shouldn't be driven by drivers without a CDL" is in them. Edit: asked around and it may actually be FMCSA that would object, but they are "notoriously slow about responding to complaints."...and wouldn't it be lovely if this show turned and the Teamsters came in and said "no, you're not allowed to drive an airbraked 10-ton truck at all without a commercial endorsement, let alone up a winding mountain road of dirt in the pouring rain
