@patriot_georgia @RobCarpenter @maybedanielleee Yep I saw that too. It’s inaccurate unfortunately as i also have 80% even though we have never fallen off a load nor have we picked up late. Will bring it up in my next meeting with them.

I actually enjoy working with Armstrong...but they need help when it comes to vetting their carriers

So this will stop after the May 14th broker liability ruling right?

[Trucking Made Successful @TMSuccessful]

@DC_SwampFyxe Yup 🥲

In regards to the Virginia crash that happened on May 29th which caused the FMCSA to sue the state of New York for allowing a driver who does not speak english to hold a CDL...this goes much deeper than that.

The driver, 48 year old Jing Sheng Dong is a naturalized US citizen. I am a naturalized US citizen, and I know that when you have your interview, not only do you need to have all documents in order, there are also tests you have to pass. One of them is a test on English Language Proficiency...which is an absolute joke.

For the reading test, you must read aloud ONE out of 3 sentences correctly from a tablet. Same for the writing test, only one of the 3 sentences must be written correctly. There is a waiver- if you are 50 years old or older during the interview and have been a permanent resident for 20 years, you don't have to take the English language test, OR if you are 55 years or older and have been a permanent resident for 15 years. The civics test, in this case, would be performed in the applicant's native language. But this doesn't apply to Mr. Dong who is currently 48 years old.

I find it very curious how IDs are not required when voting. Today is the last day to vote in the CA governor primary election. I have always received my ballot by mail and dropped it off in person on the last day of voting. No, they have never asked me for my ID but today was a particularly interesting experience.

I come up to a very nice elderly gentleman who is in charge of accepting the sealed ballots. He looks at the envelope, points at my signature and asks, “is this you?” I say yes. He then proceeds to put the envelope to his ear and pauses to “listen”, followed by, “YEP! That’s you, the ballot just told me. Do you want a sticker?”

What?

According to OH BMV, they have not issued/renewed any Non Domiciled CDLs since September 2025, and do not intend to resume doing so.

One of two letters will be sent to non domiciled CDL holders:
1. A notice of a CDL downgrade if the individual no longer meets the FMCSA's requirements, OR;
2. A notice that the CDL will remain valid if the submitted documentation meets the FMCSA's requirements.

Someone posted that some carriers lost access to the CH Robinson loadboard (I lost the post), but I did find this. This is what a rep of CHR said to one of the carriers that has hauled for them, "we're trimming our carrier base and you were deemed on the not safe list' for their new standards."
