Why Experience Is Worth More. Would you like to know why trucking companies pay more for an experienced driver? There is a slew of reasons but the main one comes down to accidents.

Crime On The Road. When you have a concealed carry permit, you don't have the right to pull your gun out to scare people. It is not a Lisence to bully people. In fact, a Lisence to carry a gin bares more responsibility to the person that possesses it. Recently a trucker pulled a gun out and pointed it at a motorist. It sounded like there was road rage going on prior to the incident. A car cut the truck driver off coming into a construction zone and thats when the trucker acted. The driver in the car called 911 and the trucker was arrested. He is now facing up to 25 years in prison. When obtaining your carry permit, we are told to never pull a gun out unless we intend to use it. It is not a deterrent to end an argument. Many people have been arrested because they have misused the privilege they have been given. How Does A Trucker Get Picked For Smuggling Recently we talked about a trucker that was nabbed for smuggling illegal immigrants. over 50 people died in his reefer trailer, which had shut off without him knowing. He is now facing life in prison, along with the mastermind behind this horrific crime. We were wondering, how a trucker even gets the offer to do such a job? We all know that the average person will never even get the opportunity to smuggle humans in a tractor trailer. The reason they won't be asked, is because most truckers don't associate with kind of criminal element. The only truckers that will ever get an offer to do such things, are those of the baser sort. This is how it works people. The problem with using low lines to haul human beings in a semi truck and trailer is, they are usually not the smartest people. The type of driver that is willing to risk being in prison for life, is one that most likely when caught, will turn the rest of the bad guys in. He is also the kind of driver that comes with an higher rick of being caught. This is the only kind of driver that will take this risky job.

Bad Things Can Happen When A Carrier Keeps A Driver Pay. This week we are missing little Miss Ruthann. She is sick and is in bed getting much needed rest. Troy will be going it all by himself. Bad Things Can Happen When A Carrier Keeps A Driver Pay. When a carrier keeps part or all of a drivers last pay check, it can back fire big time. Many drivers have told TalkCDL their last paycheck from the previous company was stolen. That's right, a driver considers his pay stolen when he does not get his earned wages. Is it Legal to Dock Pay for Poor Performance or for Mistakes? Generally, no an employer cannot engage in docking pay or fining employees for poor performance or mistakes, shortages, or damages. However, if the employee agreed in writing that a deduction could be made, the employer may be able to do so. Only when an employer has reason to believe that the employee was responsible for the mistake and the employee agrees in writing that they will pay for the mistake can it be deducted from their pay.

There's No More Diesel Left Time To Panic. The United States of America uses 128 million gallons of diesel fuel per day or just over 3 million barrels. Experts are telling us we have only enough to cover the next 25 days. How did this happen? How much trouble are we really in? Blame is being cast on the Russian/Ukraine war and of course the past couple years worth of covid problems. These two issues alone have hurt the world supply chain and its not getting better fast enough. Last year alone we consumed over 1.1 billion barrels of fuel and we are on track for another billion plus. Tune into this weeks podcast and hear our take on this. A new trend in the trucking industry Truck drivers are using carriers to catch a ride to a destination they need to reach. The new scam goes like this. A driver gets hired in some distant city in the country. The new carrier does not offer a free ride to orientation. They tell the driver, he needs to fine his own way to his new job. The driver then applies with another carrier in the same area of the desired carrier. Once approved by the second carrier, the driver is offered a plane ticket to come to the new companies orientation. Once the driver lands in that city, he calls the original carrier and goes to work. Meanwhile screwing the new carrier that paid for his plane ticket. Carriers are fighting back. Some carriers are now reporting a driver to DAC or other agencies for "theft by deception of company funds". Meaning they now have to explain to any future companies why a carrier has put them down as a thief on record. This of course will hinder a driver from future jobs.

Truckers Make The Best Husbands. The national average for divorced people in the United States, is, almost 50%. Yuk, right? Almost half of everyone that gets married, will get a divorce. If you get married a 2nd time, there is a 60% chance this marriage will fail. A 3rd time getting married? 3 times and you are out. 73% of people that get married a 3rd time, end in divorce. So how do truckers fair out? Truckers are at 19.14%! What? Did I just say that? The answer is "heck yeah". Truckers don't even come close to the national average when it comes to splitting ties with your spouse. In fact, truckers make the best husbands. They are loyal, romantic and go the extra "mile" to keep their significant others, till death due us part. You would think, long distant relationships would not work, but some how some way, the American trucker has found a way, whether it be through the case of love or what not, they found a way to out last the average married couple. Does absence make the heart grow fonder? It appears so. Perhaps the time away from each other keeps the fire going, but either way ladies, if you are looking for a loyal, loving partner, maybe you should try the local truck stop.

Vengeance On The Road. Recently a trucker took out his own vengeance on a trucking company. A driver started burning semi trucks that belonged to Swift transportation. In all, 25 semi trucks were torched. Im not sure what this 64 year old trucker was thinking but he was on a roll. You would think that there was cameras watching. Sometimes a criminal is beyond thinking. Tune in to this weeks podcast and hear how this irate truck driver was caught. AB5 uses a test called "the ABC" test (A) The work is done without the direction and control of the employer (B) The work is performed outside the usual course of the employers business (C)The work is done by someone who hastier own, independent business or trade doing that kind of work These three factors, decide whether a person is an employee or an independent contractor.

Only 23% are still willing to lease a truck. The numbers have changed drastically since this time last year. A year ago, truck drivers were seeking to be owners and not employees. This has drastically changed since the price of fuel has risen. Vengeance On The Road

Drive Monkey Drive. Autonomous maker Locomotion is teaming up with Stevens Trucking of Oklahoma. Steven has plans to acquire up to 500 autonomous rigs. Although fully autonomous vehicles will not be out for a few years to come. Stevens allegedly will have a pilot program some time in 2023. The Autonomous Relay Convoy or ARC systems allows two vehicles to operate together at the same time.This is done by tethering the vehicles together. What this means is, a lead driver inside truck number one, will be awake and in the drivers seat. The lead truck will be controlling the trailing vehicle. This will allow the driver in truck number 2, to get sleep, awaiting his turn to drive. I don't know about you but taking a nap, inside a vehicle that no one is driving. Doesn't sound like the safest way to travel. I believe my sleep could possibly be interrupted by the nightmare of crashing, due to, maybe, a recall on the chip thats controlling the rig. Im just not convinced that most drivers can even get well deserved rest while another machine is controlling the vehicle Im suppose to be sleeping in, while it is in an entire different vehicle. Good luck finding this many drivers to be the test monkeys.
