Does this really add up?
Ok so right now we are being told that the reason rates are falling is do to over capacity, to many new trucks have been added to the market. Well where did they suddenly find all these drivers to fill those new trucks? Most carriers were shrinking in size, couldn’t fill their existing trucks for years, yet in such a short time frame they solved that problem, plus suddenly found drivers to fill the new trucks? If capacity is no longer a issue, why do all the shippers still want the HOS changes fast tracked? Why does anyone need exemptions anymore? Or is it all a lie to get bullshit truckers into working for peanuts?
