Episode description

FMCSA is giving the public additional time to comment on whether its regulatory guidance documents need to be updated, while support grows for a bipartisan bill that would guarantee overtime pay for truckers. Plus, there’s nothing good about being involved in an accident, but if you are, look into something called “downtime compensation.” Then, Land Line Now details how even relatively normal weather events can involve insurance considerations. And finally, we look at the impact a potential government shutdown could have on the trucking industry.
