Episode description

A lawsuit contends that Oregon’s weight-distance tax puts too heavy a burden on trucking operations – and claims that violates the state’s constitution. Also, in a world where it seems like everything is going up in price, there is worry about insurance minimums increasing. OOIDA's Truck Insurance Department outlines what’s happening. Then, Colorado lawmakers are taking aim at trucks that travel in the state during the winter with a focus on chain laws – and lane restrictions have lawmakers’ attention, as well.
