Episode description

The bad guys, as Brent Hutto of Truckstop likes to call them, have been active of late trying to steal money from hard-working truck drivers. The latest type of fraud on the rise? Fuel card theft. Brent explains what’s behind the increase and how to stop those bad guys in their tracks. Also, it can take a lot of work to get your own authority – and that includes insurance coverage. Today we look at some tips on what to look for when it comes to coverage as well as some questions to ask about your policy. And we're in a summer freight cycle, which means fewer loads and lower spot rates.
