Ford urges trucking deregulation to cut costs
President Ford called Congress to ease government control of truck and bus lines to lower transportation costs. The plan would relax the Interstate Commerce Commission's power to set rates, allow new lines, and set phased mileage-based rate flexibilities. Industry critics warn of economic chaos and instability in distribution. White House officials acknowledge opposition but say the move improves consumer choices and competition. The bill also seeks faster ICC decisions and limits on antitrust immunity for rate bureaus.
