LLN (7/5/21) – A U.S. representative has signed a letter complaining about the high price local commuter railroads will have to pay for liability insurance. However, he’s also introduced a bill to do exactly the same thing to trucking operations. And owner-operators may pay the price. We’ll offer up an encore of our report on the situation and how it could affect your bottom line. Also on today’s program: July is going to be a busy month in trucking, mostly for bad reasons; a major enforcement blitz is a short week or so away and truck thefts and scam calls are likely to go up; and we’ll review a recent report on motor vehicle deaths.
