With less than a month left until the new Entry Level Driver Training rule take effect, Brandon and Jerad tackle some of the most frequently asked questions about the rule, including to whom it applies, who can provide it, what does it entail, and many more.

In Ep. 4 of Trucksafe LIVE!, we discussed the driver qualification, orientation, and onboarding programs and how carriers can leverage them to better retain drivers. After receiving so much great feedback from that show, we decided to put together a sequel of sorts. In this episode, we'll be joined once again by Brian Runnels (VP of Safety for Reliance partners), as well as Jamie Philip (head of recruiting and driver development for Cheema Freightlines). Brian and Jamie will provide some great tips for carriers to build lasting relationships with their drivers and reduce turnover.
