Bad Freight toe.Rates Explained. Why are rates getting worse and worse in the trucking industry? Tune into TalkCDL Trucking Podcast and hear Troy's take on it, you will be surprised.

Rates were exceedingly high the last 3 years and then suddenly they dropped like a hot potato. For the longest time, it seemed like truckers were going to get their fair share of the pie. But there was something sinister brewing. Many truckers were fooled by a false market and are still paying the price today.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who is making all the money in current times. He who controls the freight makes the rules and sets the price. Brokers are swimming in money and its no big secret. But how did it come to this after 3 good years of profit for the drivers and not to mention small trucking companies? Tune in to this weeks episode of "Bad Freight Rates Explained" and get the skinny on it.
