Magic Valley (KMVT) Idaho lawmakers are considering a change to the speed for truckers on the interstate. Currently speed for trucks sits at 65mph. A bill proposes trucks be able to go 75 like most light vehicles. Some argue its unsafe. Others say it will speed up work, at the same time burn more fuel.
