LLN (9/27/22) – We’ll discuss some specifics about hotshotting and the hours of service, as well as several other topics, with Tom Crowley and Joe Biggs of OOIDA’s Business Services Department. Also, David Stevens, managing director of the Tire Retread & Repair Information Bureau, says it may be time to give retreading another try. He joins us to talk about how technology has improved the process, how retreading can save you money and why it’s just as reliable as any other option out there. And Pennsylvania is taking an in-depth look at the state’s department of transportation, comparing it with operations in other states; meanwhile, a bill in Massachusetts includes a mandate for side underride guards for certain trucks.
