Description

On Episode 706 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to Brush Pass Research’s Kevin Hill about his latest data on freight brokerages. There are 35% more freight brokerages than there were five years ago but 10% fewer than there were one year ago. Are we close to finding the floor in this market? We’ll see what the numbers say.

Put the phone down, driver, it’s Distracted Driving Awareness Month. Distracted driving claimed 3,308 lives in 2022, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Travelers’ Chris Hayes is here to talk about how all this erratic driving is impacting both drivers’ lives and insurance rates.

The Broker Carrier Summit kicks off next week in Kansas City, Missouri. We’re joined by Troy Wiitanen and Rob McCutcheon to find out everything we need to know about the event that promises to bring brokers and carriers together.


Plus, Tony’s Express employees say mismanagement sank carrier; the power of the road atlas; Tesla Semi spotted with a Walmart trailer; happy Boston Marathon Monday; and more.
