Danielle Chaffin is 3rd generation working in the trucking industry currently working for a TMS Revenova. After a deadly crash in Chattanooga earlier this year, she knew that there was more to the story. After uncovering that Amazon has a rap sheet of working with unsafe carriers, she started using her data skills to really investigate just how many of these shady companies there are.

We go into "Chameleon Carriers," Non-Domiciled CDLs, and English Language proficiency, and how the current Presidential Administration is watching what truckers are saying on X (Twitter). You can follow Danielle's work on X @maybedanielleee and go to daniellechaffin.com

In this episode I recap my most recent race in Belgrade, Serbia. I cover what went right/wrong during the race, and where I know I can improve to continue to excel in my age group.
