Trucker Overtime Pay Coming Mar 11, 2025

Show notes

Trucker Overtime Pay Coming. It seems truckers and waitresses are the last people in the world to be paid right. While waitresses are clearly paid under minimum wage. A truck driver is ripped off in a different way. He works normally by the mile. Then he is asked to do more, from counting freight, to sitting and guarding a load till a receiver takes it. Most don't realize how much work a trucker does for nothing. Tune in and hear Troy and Ruthann fight for truckers.

A broker but a friend also. He told me 2025 would be the year we start seeing normality in trucking. It turns out he may just be right. The industry is turning and it might just be huge very soon. So, sit back drivers, you're about more freight than you can handle. Im sure this is something you are going to welcome. I got sick of delivering the grim news of the freight recession. Now I am here to predict better times. Lord willing the United States will prosper and trucking should see it first. TAB Bank Interview Truck Parking Club Interview

A truck driver heading south bound on highway 19, in Florida, had a pedestrian run in front of him. No one knows if the person was trying to beat the truck or if he was attempting suicide by semi truck. Many people every day take chances around these big rigs. They cut truckers off and break check them, they sneak up on their sides trying to beat them to red lights or they just pull out in front of a tractor-trailer thinking the big rig has 18 brakes and can stop on a dime. In fact it's just the opposite. It takes two football fields to stop at 70mph. These big boys gross weight is 80,000 pounds, that 4o tons of inertia. When someone is hurt or killed by a tractor trailer, the trucker has to live the rest of his life with this memory. Truckers are human too. This incident that happened on highway 19, was tragic. Not only for the victim and his family but also for the trucker. He did not ask for this to happen and from the reports, it looks like the truck driver did nothing wrong. So please be careful around these large cars called big rigs, the life you save may be your own. 2 Truckers beaten A Carriers Obligation to Truckers
