Episode description
What’s behind the constant claims of a driver shortage? Turns out turnover is a cheaper way to do business. That’s the subject of a new research paper. We’re joined by one of its authors, professor Stephen Burks of the University of Minnesota Morris. Also, this month's issue of Land Line Magazine takes a detailed look at important upcoming rulemaking dates, speed limiters and automated driving systems. And things are getting back to normal on the spot market. After a historically slow Thanksgiving week, DAT says the number of loads has increased significantly.
