On Episode 706 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to Brush Pass Research’s Kevin Hill about his latest data on freight brokerages. There are 35% more freight brokerages than there were five years ago but 10% fewer than there were one year ago. Are we close to finding the floor in this market? We’ll see what the numbers say.
Put the phone down, driver, it’s Distracted Driving Awareness Month. Distracted driving claimed 3,308 lives in 2022, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Travelers’ Chris Hayes is here to talk about how all this erratic driving is impacting both drivers’ lives and insurance rates.
