Synopsis

In today’s show we’ve got lots of info on electric stuff, including Kenworth’s new electric truck, new battery technology, and whether our power grid can handle it. We’ll also get an update on the AB5 mess in California, the FMCSA is looking for your comments on ELDs, a new bill for driver training exemptions, a new autonomous truck study focused on drivers and new autonomous business partnerships, toll-reversals, new speed cameras, a hazmat endorsement exemption, and what do you know, we’ve finally got a new FMCSA administrator! In the listener feedback segment, we’ve got a couple of new Trucker Dump Slack members, and some new guy calling himself Trucker Smack sends an audio comment with his thoughts on not having HOS rules. I’ll also share yet another bad podcast review!
