    so i was wondering how operating authority for owner operator works. i have a general idea but i would like to know for sure, so when you obtain your own authority does it mean that you can select loads off of any load board and haul what you prefer to haul.

    That would be my assumption as well.

    Pretty much yes as long as your equipped to haul it and have the proper insurance coverage/permits and equipment and thats once your approved by the broker to do so.
