Episode Details

Trucks stuck in the wrong lane could soon be a thing of the past on Louisiana’s Interstate 12, thanks to a bold new safety push by Councilman Ricky Goff. His plan? Simple signs designating the right lane as “truck-only” during normal traffic — with flexibility to switch lanes for passing. The goal? Slash deadly accidents on a highway that’s seen too many tragedies, including delays for emergency responders. Local drivers like Patricia Ladut, whose son is a trucker, back the idea — saying it could save lives. While the state eyes a major road expansion, Goff’s proposal offers a quicker safety fix. The Livingston Parish Council already approved it — now it’s up to the state to fund a study and decide if this lane rule should become law.
