Rates are crashing and fuel to the moon!

Do you have any evidence to back up "the epa only goes after those they don't like?"

Or any reason why the epa wouldn't/doesn't like Iowa 80 other than "brr... trucks bad"?

None of the other trucks stops are necessarily better or worse. I have nothing against Iowa 80, except for you end up parking heck and gone from the building when there are plenty of other options in the area where you don't. Iowa 80 is 90% hype - it's TA fuel, TA rewards, TA shop, an over priced under tasty restaurant and not much else.

 

No, and especially now with the whole 3rd world coming to the US to be truck drivers they won't ever have to worry about being short!!!

 

They need a continued driver surplus so they can continue to not pay a living wage and benefits. To continue the driver surplus they have to keep parading around like #######es talking about the driver shortage. What a cycle...

 

Probably why a scale ticket is 14 bucks now and a reweigh is 4.50

 

Yes, I do. It's a part of a government that values more illegals than it's own citizens. Do you have any idea how many truck drivers are not qualified to be on the road?

What other options you're talking about, they are full by 5 pm.

 

Time will tell if it was the perfect storm of holidays, snow, and the rush to get containers in and out.

 

They have a program here in MO for inmates to help get a Cdl. They cannot get it until they get out and will have to go through schooling anyways so it is not gonna change much. Also most of them cannot cross state lines because they are on parole. So really only local work for the most part.

 

Another stupid tech solution. I am sooo getting worn out from all the tech bros trying to make money out of trucking
With rising cargo theft, brokers need a simple way to safeguard freight

 

So is Henry Lari gonna provide all of us drivers a smart phone that has a camera?

Or what about when the driver arrives early for his appointment but the broker is out to lunch. By the time ge gets back and the driver checks in, he's now late and is a "work in".

Or how about when the internet is down or the driver is in a rural area and doesn't have a connection at all? Now what?

The whole thing is garbage.
