Episode description
LLN (3/10/21) – A bill in Congress would take California’s controversial definition of who is or is not an independent contractor – the so-called ABC Test – and make it a national standard. Also, every year, the OOIDA Foundation takes a look at some of the factors that can affect the success of truck drivers. And high up on the list is the price that shippers pay to move freight. We’ll review the latest freight rate survey – plus some new online classes on getting your own authority. And there’s no end in sight for a surge in pandemic-related imports, and rates are on the rise.
