LLN (6/25/20) – The FMCSA is investigating complaints by carriers against brokers. Also, we discuss an upcoming UCR deadline and how marijuana legalization is affecting trucker safety. A bill in Tennessee would put an end to police going on ticket-writing sprees to meet ticket quotas; meanwhile, information about upcoming primaries.
