Vaccine mandates have truckers hopping mad

Feb 06, 2022 at 01:46 PM CST
Canadian truckers are in an uproar, to say the least, about the U.S. and Canadian vaccine mandates for crossing the border, and Marty Ellis is getting an earful. Also, the hike in minimum insurance limits we feared last year never happened, but the idea is sure to come up again. In fact, OOIDA’s truck insurance department is still getting calls from concerned truckers about the issue. And a bill now before Congress would fix a longstanding problem with the background checks required for some truckers. We’ll discuss that, plus provide an update on the shipping backlog at California ports.
