  • The Big Lie In Trucking

    06/01/2024 Duração: 38min

    The Big Lie In Trucking. What is the big lie? Well, let's put it this way, the current big lie is, Autonomous trucks will always nee a driver. Thats according to the latest news. It has been said that "driverless trucks" will be running Americas roads by the end of 2024. That is why I am ticked-off. Everyone was selling the BS to all of us drivers (when the idea of autonomous trucks came out) that we would always be needed. Well not according to the articles circulating the net this week. I for one am sick of the BS we get shoved down our throats. The news of trucks with no drivers is devastating. I am one that hopes this fails. It will put millions of drivers out of work. The rich man has done it again. Well maybe not quite yet. Some legal moves have to come into place first. If you're reading this, write to your local congressmen and sign any petition you can get your hands on.

  • Has FMCSA Really Made Roads Safer?

    17/12/2023 Duração: 41min

    Has FMCSA Really Made Roads Safer? Check out these stats. 1975 4305 deaths involving large trucks, 1976 4893, 1992 4422, 2002 4846, 2021 4714, so it does not appear to have changed much. With all the regulations, you would think the numbers would decline every year. The new regulation to hit the market are "speed limiters". It is unclear if and when this will start but it is heating up for debate. Many claim that it will make the roads unsafer. Putting over 3 million large trucks on the road, at a slower speed than cars, is a recipe for rear end collisions. We will see how this plays out. Has FMCSA Really Made Roads Safer?

  • Trucking Jobs Are Looking Pretty Grim

    Trucking Jobs Are Looking Grim. Don't quit your day job because it's not ;looking good in the trucking industry. Tune into this weeks TalkCDL Trucking podcast and hear how jobs are getting scarce in the industry. Troy did a quit poll across Craigslist and what he found was scary. This time last year there was hundreds of jobs in each city daily, now the average posting is 10 to 40 jobs per city per day. If you have a job that is providing you with freight to haul, stay there until the economy bounces back. As Troy said, it's all about survival right now and the carrier that has contracts or creates their own freight, is a winner.

  • If You Believe The Rich Man

    27/08/2023 Duração: 41min

    If You Believe The Rich Man. Did you know that autonomous trucks are a real thing? They are putting in self operating fuel stops for driverless semi trucks. Of course there is a driver in the truck. A driver that is helping take away future jobs of other truckers. It's no different than the kiosks at McDonald's. You walk in for a Big Mac and Fries and you put the order in yourself. By the way, McDonald's had their workers training customers for the first so many year on how to place order. In a sense they were training customers to do their very own job. Go figure. This is the way of the rich man. He will stop at nothing to make his profit. Even if it means getting rid of human workers. Someone recently wrote, " Some day our grand children will ask, what's a truck driver"? You might think I'm a conspiracy theorist but mark my words, it's coming.
