Trucker "Ride for the Constitution" Beltway Protest Not as Big as Announced

The thousands of trucks mentioned haven't appeared

WASHINGTON, October 11, 2013 — The so-called "Ride for the Constitution" that was supposed to bring truckers from states neighboring Washington D.C. to circle the beltway slowing three lanes for three days is, as of this writing, yet another protest bust.

The "thousands of truckers" announced by rally spokespersons Zeena Andrews and Peter Santilli have failed to appear, and observers report few sightings of trucks on the beltway with the signature #T2SDA (Truckers to Shut Down America) stickers and flags.
