Episode description

A new report from the American Transportation Research Institute sheds new light on just how bad predatory towing has become. Also, Land Line Magazine’s Mark Schremmer reports on his conversation with FMCSA Administrator Robin Hutcheson and breaks down a session that let truck drivers speak their mind through a proxy. And as a token of thanks for the help Boston provided back in 1917 during the Halifax explosion, Nova Scotia gifts a Christmas tree to the city every year. We speak with the driver of the tree about this annual act of gratitude and decades-old tradition.
