Freight Expectations | The Driver Shortage Myth
from FreightCasts · host FreightWaves
Is your freight being run by the Sinaloa cartel? In this high-voltage second episode of Freight Expectations, Craig Fuller and Matt Leffler explore why cargo theft has exploded into a $30 billion industry - making it a larger “mode” of traffic than the entire U.S. barge market. The hosts go scorched-earth on the “driver shortage” propaganda, explain why local police won’t help you find your stolen TVs, and break down why the CORCA act might be the only thing standing between your load and a criminal syndicate. Plus, find out why Craig is an “enemy of the state” to industry insiders and why Matt is obsessed with the dwarf planet Ceres. It’s unscripted, unfiltered, and potentially the most dangerous hour in freight media. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
