179,000 truckers’ CDLs revoked; broker transparency; truckload markets

On Episode 790 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking about 179,000 truck drivers whose CDLs were revoked. In late November, those drivers were automatically placed in prohibited status. What does it mean for capacity, and how do drivers get back into return-to-duty status? Innovative Logistics Group’s Adam Wingfield breaks it all down. Federal regulators have issued a long-awaited proposed rule in response to allegations of fraud in the rate-making process raised by owner-operators against truck brokers. Is broker transparency all it is cracked up to be? Wingfield weighs in. Last month, FreightWaves’ Craig Fuller and RXO both said the freight recession is over and that we’ve entered a new truckload cycle. Today, SONAR’s Tony Mulvey separates the chaff from the wheat as he presents the latest market data. Plus, Martin Shkreli vs. Matt Silver; Christmas lights on semi; odds of an International Longshoremen’s Association port strike; shady hot shot truckers; and more.
