Free meals for truckers? Yes, it’s real

Oct 22, 2020

LLN (10/21/20) – Thanks to a work clothing company and a well-known restaurant, truckers can get a free meal, no strings attached. Also: a company finds a way to prevent those LED headlights from freezing up in winter, while another has the honor of transporting the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree from Colorado to Washington, D.C. Rates are beginning to flatten but are still high for October thanks to imbalanced networks and tight capacity. And tomorrow, the two candidates for president of the United States will face off for the final time in a debate before the election. What will they discuss that matters to truckers? Will transportation be a topic at all?
