Speed limiter fight just getting started

LLN (7/26/22) – FMCSA’s comment period for a proposed speed limiter mandate is over, but the fight is just beginning. Lewie Pugh, executive vice president of OOIDA, stops by Studio A to tell us what the Association is doing to keep the pressure on policymakers and lawmakers. Also, the OOIDA Foundation has put out a report on the freight market, with an eye toward helping owner-operators and other truckers navigate turbulent economic times. And broker problems are nothing new. But in some cases, the problems have reached an extreme, and truckers can face losing their business over what’s going on. We’ll discuss an example with Tom Crowley of OOIDA’s Business Services Department.
