What if trucking's biggest problems aren't being ignored...

What if they're being protected?

On this episode of Brake Check, Charles Gracey sits down with two of the most outspoken voices in trucking to tackle the issues drivers, carriers, and owner-operators are talking about across America.

First, Charles Claburn joins the show. With 30 years behind the wheel, more than 3 million accident-free miles, and decades spent advocating for truck drivers, Claburn shares his unfiltered perspective on retention, training, truck parking, regulations, and why so many trucking companies continue making the same mistakes.

Then Mike Cobb, CEO of the Federation of Professional Truckers (FOPT), joins Brake Check to discuss the organization's challenge to the ELD mandate, broker accountability, insurance requirements, FMCSA oversight, non-domiciled CDLs, and what real trucking reform looks like from the driver's seat.

Topics include:

ELD Mandate Debate

FMCSA & Federal Regulation

Truck Parking Crisis

Driver Retention & Turnover

Broker Accountability

Insurance Minimums

Non-Domiciled CDLs

Trucking Safety

Owner-Operator Challenges

The Future of Professional Trucking

Whether you're a driver, owner-operator, carrier, broker, or industry leader, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.
