It's an ongoing battle that doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon. Freight Broker Crackdown: In recent years there has been an increase in the number of freight brokers operating without proper licenses or insurance coverage. This has caused headaches for many companies as they try to navigate through a complex web of regulations and compliance issues. As a result, there has been an increase in enforcement actions taken against non-compliant brokers in order to protect honest businesses from unfair competition. The Price of Diesel Rises Yet Again: The price of diesel fuel continues to rise across the country with no end in sight. This is causing financial hardship for truckers who already face tight profit margins on their routes due to competition from larger carriers with deeper pockets. While some fleet owners have opted to pass on higher fuel costs directly to their customers, others are looking for ways to mitigate these costs through alternative fuel sources or other cost-saving measures such as fuel optimization technology. Money always seems to be at the center of any conversation when it comes to trucking and transportation today.

Shut the Truck Up is a no off limits podcast about trucking, transportation, and a bunch of other stuff. Hosted by veteran drivers and brothers, Bryan and CJ we talk about the industry from a driver’s perspective, breaking down topics in an entertaining and informative manner. Join us each week to discuss their insights on the trucking industry, so join us behind the wheel for lively conversations!Truckers are facing an ever-changing landscape in the industry, with new laws and regulations being introduced all the time. In this episode we will explore how truckers can navigate these changes while staying ahead of the game. We'll look at what truckers need to know about government speed limiter mandates, California's ban on older trucks, and dropping freight rates. The federal government is implementing a mandate that requires large commercial trucks to have speed limiters installed by 2021. These devices limit how fast a vehicle can travel, which helps drivers save fuel and reduce wear-and-tear on their vehicles. It also reduces the risk of accidents caused by speeding. The state of California has recently enacted a ban on older trucks that are not compliant with its stringent emissions standards. This means truckers driving in the state will need to upgrade their vehicles or face fines and other penalties. Additionally, they must comply with new regulations governing their cargo weight and other requirements. Truckers are also facing pressure from declining freight rates due to an increase in competition for available loads. In order to remain competitive, many truckers have had to reduce their rates, putting additional strain on profit margins. Navigating the changing landscape of trucking is no easy feat. Truckers need to be aware of the many regulations, laws, and other changes that are taking place in order to stay ahead of the game. Government speed limiter mandates, California's ban on older trucks, and dropping freight rates all present unique challenges for truckers that must be addressed if they want to remain successful. With the right knowledge and skills, however, truckers can adjust their operations accordingly and continue to thrive in this ever-changing industry.
