Podcast: FMCSA limits emergency relief
FMCSA is limiting the amount of regulatory relief granted when a regional emergency is declared. OOIDA’s Jay Grimes joins Land Line Now to discuss that – and the continuing contest for a new speaker of the U.S. House. Also, a woman truck driver is using her truck and trailer to bring awareness to missing and murdered indigenous people. We’ll speak with her about her efforts and why this message is an important one to spread. And what sort of advice would you give four-wheelers if you had the chance? One trucker recently did just that, writing a blog that’s going viral. We’ll hear from Ron Mayes of Eureka, Kansas.
