Episode description

A bill that would guarantee truckers basic amenities that most Americans take for granted – access to bathrooms – is now in Congress. Joyce Brenny of Brenny Transportation has been named the chairperson of the Women of Trucking advisory board. Also, a bill in California would set some requirements for autonomous trucks in that state. State Assembly member Cecilia Aguiar-Curry is one of the authors of the bill. We’ll talk with her about what the bill would do, and why she sponsored it. And two states are working to ensure that money collected for roads is actually used on roads. Meanwhile, a New York state lawmaker wants to put speed limiters in cars.
