    Does this mean drivers using their 70 hours each week get 30 hours tax free ? Does that mean brokers will drop rates ?

    $70 a day per diem coming off the first 40 and 30 hours tax free could make for some sweet driver paychecks. Will the industry allow this ?

    Only if it’s considered OT by your employer.

    Like every other labor law, mileage drivers will be exempt.

    You’d have to be an hourly employee just like now. Nothing changes for mileage or percentage employees

    So what about tanker yankers and others where there is hourly pay ? Did that just become the best pay in trucking ?
