Restricting CB use seems fairly stupid, and even counterproductive since most drivers use it primarily to check with other drivers for road conditions.

I'll say that I do support the 8, 11, and 14-hour rules. On the other hand, if those rules are maintained, I see absolutely no use for the 70 hour rule. I didn't get into OTR driving to have days off.

OTR:

Over The Road

OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

And why in 2015 are we not using HUD technologies? HUD stands for "Heads Up Display".

Agree! I remember using an HUD option with a TomTom GPS a few years ago, and really liked it, especially at night time. Very convenient and smart, but for some reason, even today, in 2021, it is still not around.
