Episode description

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is going to take another look at rest break rules in two states. But what does that mean? Also, runaway truck ramps save lives, but not all are created equal. A novel concept is being used in Wyoming to bring runaway vehicles to a safe stop. And a truck convoy in Indiana tripled its goal of raising more than $17,000 for the Make-a-Wish foundation. Coming up, we’ll hear why this organization was chosen and how the generosity of truckers has once again made a difference.
