#11 - Marijuana Legalization and its Effect on Trucking

This week’s episode of The Liquid Trucking Podcast drives us down the highway of purple haze, as we discuss the changing landscape of marijuana legalization and its effect on the trucking industry.  First, we’ll talk with Recruiter Nick Meyer, who will help us understand what a recruiter is looking for when new drivers are applying, and how various drug and alcohol violations affect that process.  We’ll discuss some new regulations from the FMCSA on prohibited status, and finally, Safety Consultant from Safety Management Services Company Garett Larson joins the show along with VP of Safety and HR Jason Eisenman to talk about the changing landscape of marijuana legalization and the safety aspects involved.
