WHAT THE TRUCK?!? EP829 Trucker creates own prosthetic arm; distracted driving; tariff and trade fraud


Listen Later

On Episode 829 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to one of the most amazing owner-operators on the road: Roger Machback. Machback lost his arm in a boating accident but didn’t let that keep him out of the cab. Instead, he designed his own prosthetic arm so he could keep on trucking. Now, he says, regulations need to change regarding amputee drivers. We’ll find out why. 


Grace Sharkey is sounding the alarm about the latest trending form of freight fraud: trade fraud. With shippers scrambling to save their supply chains, bad actors are taking advantage. We will also learn about FreightWaves’ next in-person event: the Freight Fraud Symposium. 


April is Distracted Driver Awareness Month, so Travelers’ Chris Hayes stops by to speak facts on the issue.


Catch new shows live at noon EDT Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on FreightWaves LinkedIn, Facebook, X or YouTube, or on demand by looking up WHAT THE TRUCK?!? on your favorite podcast player and at 5 p.m. Eastern on SiriusXM’s Road Dog Trucking Channel 146.
