Driver retention: What are they going to do about it?

Jul 30, 2021

LLN (7/29/21) – Two top federal officials recently made it clear that they understand the retention and turnover problems in the trucking industry. Now, what will they do about it? Also, FMCSA will require states to exchange CDL information electronically by 2024, and the agency has clarified some emergency declarations. Three states act to stop “ticket quotas” – and more states may; meanwhile, Pennsylvania continues trying to let local police use speed enforcement radar. Illinois is playing host to Shell Rotella SuperRigs, and like everything else the past year it’s a little different than usual. And NOAA predicts a rough hurricane season.
