  • WHAT THE TRUCK?!? EP648 Truck accidents up 71% and why ELDs may not be helping

    On today’s episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is talking to FreightWaves’ Rachel Premack about a new study that says truck fatalities are up 71% over the past 12 years. Has anything improved recently and are ELDs helping or hurting? 


    MoLo Solutions co-founder Will Jenkins shares his founder’s story of building a company from zero to selling it for $235 million to ArcBest. We’ll find out what he learned along the way and how it has helped shape his freight philosophy. 


    FreightWaves’ Justin Martin brings the trucker perspective on trucks as a service, detention pay reform, broker morale, where Yellow’s freight went and charging your kids a trick-or-treat tax.


    Plus, the best of Halloween, crashing into bridges, robot dog carriages, disastrous wedding proposals and more.
