Trucker Dump - A Trucking Podcast

This week, we’re going to discuss Congress’ controversial intercession in the pending railroad strike, also, both the FMCSA and individual states are making it harder for truckers in some aspects, and easier in others, Facebook seems to be discriminating against female truckers when it comes to trucking jobs, I’ll tell you about a government funded research grant that might actually yield something useful for a change of pace, and to keep you out of trouble, we’ll also talk about what you need to know about counting the costs before you go into owning your own truck and what you should do if you find yourself in one of those massive weather-related pileups. All that plus more news, and a couple of listener feedbacks from Steve and Trailrider. Steve shares his honest opinion about new format of the show, while Trailrider asked me a question about the 60 hours in 7 days vs. the 70 hours in 8 days, that frankly, I need your help answering.
