During a press conference announcing the program on Monday, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier referenced a recent fatal accident in which three people were killed after Harjinder Singh, 28, a semi-truck driver, allegedly made an illegal U-turn in Florida.
“Most people in Florida are now aware of the serious tragedy that happened down in southeast Florida,” Uthmeier said. “Someone that never should have been given a driver’s license, much less a CDL license to drive larger commercial vehicles, engaged in reckless behavior that took three lives.”
Uthmeier continued to admit that there is “no telling how many illegal aliens are” in the United States “driving large commercial vehicles and putting American families in a safety risk every single day.”
