Trucking leaders meet with Paterson's office

It took less than an hour for a convoy of truckers and trucking advocates to come and go through Skaneateles Friday. But participants are continuing the effort against a proposal that would keep them off some rural, upstate routes.

That effort ended up in Albany on Monday as representatives from the state's trucking industry met with officials from Gov. Paterson's office to discuss the draft proposal.

The draft, which has already received some changes, still has a few steps to go before it can become an official set of regulations.
