Episode description

LLN (9/2/22) – Trucking is a notoriously lonely job, and the levels of depression among the workforce reflect that. Dr. Mona Shattell of the University of Central Florida College of Nursing wants to help. Also, the trucking industry is becoming more diverse. We recently spoke with the North American Punjabi Trucking Association about how it got start and how its working to bring awareness to the growing number of Punjabi truck drivers. And Marty Ellis takes safety very seriously. And that’s why a recent event in the news has him ready to issue a warning to truckers who roll far too fast through truck stops.
