Trucking stands at a crossroads with shifting markets, tightening regulations, and new technology redefining how freight moves. ATRI’s newly released Top 10 Industry Issues for 2025 lays out the biggest challenges facing trucking leaders, and this episode of Driving Forward tackles them head on. Host Nate Johnson sits down with three powerhouse voices from the field, Pamela Polyak Polyak (Owner, Polyak Trucking, Logistics & Consulting), Brent Bois (President, Calhoun Truck Lines), and Robert "Pedro" Petersen (The Logistics Lounge co-host & Senior Agent, Synergy Freight), for a candid look at what’s really keeping carriers and brokers up at night. From the economy’s ongoing uncertainty to lawsuit abuse reform, insurance costs, truck parking shortages, and the rise of AI-driven logistics, this discussion brings real-world perspective from the people living it every day.
