Company Drivers & Owner-Operators join those who fight hard for you!
One of my favorite parts of OOIDA is the legislative watch section. No laws concerning truckers get passed before OOIDA has it’s say and is right on top of the situation. The Trucker’s Report™ whole-heartedly & without reservations endorses OOIDA, period.
There are a few other so-called trucking associations in America that flat out not only hinder us but stand up and fight against truckers! It is a common misconception that OOIDA is only for owner-operators and this is FALSE.

With an estimated 3.4 million truckers on the road today in America this membership number is ridiculous! Join OOIDA today & let’s get this number up to where it MUST be! |

I just wanted to put this out there that I always see drivers on their cell phones and not have headsets even the ones that are hauling hazzardous materials, and another thing I do see a lot of truckers not using there signals properly it is like they are in a hurry to turn their signals off before finishing their lane, I think that drivers should get a refresh course about driving a truck. A lot of drivers have been out there so long on the road that they tend to forget that this is not a car that they are infact driving a dangerous vehicle and I do see a lot of drivers not doing their pre-trip inspections I know that we are all out here doing the same job but what I see is a lack of responsibility as a driver an also a lot of shippers are taking too long to load you and they are not knowledged about our hours of service that we only have so much time here are a few places that i have ran into that have problems WALMART DC, FRYS DC IN TOLLESON AZ, BUT THEIR IS A LOT OF SHIPPERS THAT NEED TO GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND REALIZE THAT WE ONLY HAVE SO MUCH TIME TO GET TO WHERE WE NEED TO GO IS THEIR SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO ABOUT THESE ISSUES…?

Liability insurance,,,, say it with me!!! You may as well just save your money and pay for the accident when it happens. Insurance is off the charts. Yet instead we have people riding around with out any insurance what so ever. How do they get away with it, they just do. Wanna work hard ,pay taxes and do the right thing. Pay the man so you can. Another thing ,D.O.T is a joke. City streets aren’t made for the weight of a big truck , much less the turn length of big trucks . But every big city I’ve ever been in has big trucks damaging the roads and barley making left or right hand turns. Sad to say a child could tell you that you need to widen the roads at intersections and back the traffic stopping lines up at a red light. I guess it’s insurance and government working together to make idiots out of any fool willing to pay . Log me under conspiracy theory I guess. I’m still waiting for all the soldiers that fought for our freedom to get there fair share. Guess all that money goes to a school dropout who can throw a ball or put a ball in a hoop
