Episode description
A previous version on the federal government’s independent contractor rule included a provision that opened the door to carriers requiring owner-operators to use speed limiters. Also, truck parking, driverless trucks and broker fraud are a few trucking issues that are being discussed in mainstream media. We speak with OOIDA's communications team about the Association’s take on the issues and the importance of having our voice heard. Then, fraud and scam artists have started to work the load boards, and truckers end up the victims. We have some advice.
