A push has started to get the Truck Parking Safety Improvement Act through the U.S. Senate. We’ll explain where that effort stands. Also, the trucking industry is becoming more diverse. We recently spoke with the North American Punjabi Trucking Association about how it got started and how it’s working to bring awareness to the growing number of Punjabi truck drivers. And a new issue of Land Line Magazine is out. It’s taking a look at the new year, when OOIDA will celebrate 50 years. Managing Editor Jami Jones and Staff Writer Ryan Witkowski will join us with the details.
