Our Most Recent Trucking Blogs (scroll down) Becoming An American Trucker Posted on 8 March 2010 @ 5:11 am Written by Rick Huffman I was probably one of the most unlikely candidates to become a truck driver that the world has ever seen. I had spent the past 20 years of my life working in television broadcasting in various roles. While it had been exciting and challenging at first, the years had eroded my role into a thankless and suffocating rut. I seriously needed a change...a new experience. This is the beginning of my story - the life of an American Trucker. Not Much Help For The Drivers Posted on 7 March 2010 @ 7:41 am Written by Steve Rubens The Qualcomm system at most companies have directions to customers listed, but a lot of the time the directions are wrong. Unfortunately, even when dispatchers and customers know the directions are wrong nobody seems to care enough to do anything about it. Here's an example of the mess it can cause. Cargo Theft Increasing: Highways Are Getting More Dangerous For Truckers Posted on 5 March 2010 @ 8:53 am Written by Brett Aquila Truck and cargo thefts are on the rise in recent years according to a study done by Freight Watch International, a company that "actively tracks and records cargo theft activity around the globe" according to their report and website. Every year they release a report showing not only the number of cargo-related thefts, but they identify trends from year to year. The statistics are a bit scary, and getting scarier every single year. Truck Driving Down Donner Pass Posted on 4 March 2010 @ 10:40 am Written by TruckerMike Until recently, I had never actually been on Donner's Pass in California. Donners Pass is usually touted as one of the more dangerous areas for truck drivers and is the site of many fatal accidents. It's quite an experience! I had the pleasure of going through it at night. I would have liked to take it during the day so I could see some of the scenery around me, but I'm sure I'll get that chance in the future. I was still able to make some key observations though... Our Trucking Adventure Begins Posted on 1 March 2010 @ 12:11 pm Written by Cathy Rubens Hello readers. My name is Cathy Rubens. My husband Steve and I started our trucking adventure in October of 2008. These writing will be done in the form of flashbacks, with some things from the past and some things from the present. Steve and I will be writing about the events and happening from our respective points of view. The flashbacks will be stories of happenings and musings from events as remembered by us. Don’t Step On Your Dispatcher’s Toes (or other body parts!) Posted on 26 February 2010 @ 9:11 am Written by Brett Aquila Outside of the driver's own performance and attitude, a truck driver's dispatcher is one of the most important factors influencing the amount of success and happiness a driver will experience at any given trucking company or truck driving job. So if you're unhappy with your load assignments, how can you tell if the problems you're experiencing are your own fault, your dispatcher's fault, or the fault of someone else within the offices at your company? There are several things you can do to find out what's really going on, and who is responsible when there is a problem. Is Trucking In Your Blood? Posted on 25 February 2010 @ 10:23 am Written by Guyjax Would you drive a truck if the trucking company you worked for only paid you enough to cover your bills at home and your meals, but nothing more after that? For me the answer would be yes. I love driving and I would do it for free. Trucking is in my blood. Do you love driving a truck? Really love it? If so, then trucking is in your blood. To me, there is a difference between liking your job and loving it. Liking your job means you enjoy going to work, you enjoy the people you work with, you enjoy doing your job. Loving your job means you would do it for free! For me, trucking fits the bill. Which CDL Endorsements Should I Get? Posted on 17 February 2010 @ 8:42 am Written by Brett Aquila When you attend truck driving school, even a company sponsored CDL school, you'll have to decide which endorsements to get when taking your CDL test. We'll talk about which CDL endorsements are available, how you get these endorsements, what it takes to keep them, and why they are important. CSA 2010 Will Not Assign Safety Ratings to Individual Drivers (yeah right!) Posted on 11 February 2010 @ 8:49 am Written by Brett Aquila CSA 2010, as is typical of any government-run program, is already full of misconceptions, contradictions, and confusion. Trucker drivers are obviously concerned about their safety rating and how that will affect their current job, and prospects for truck driving jobs in the future. Well, oddly enough, the FMCSA (Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration) claims there is not going to be a safety rating assigned to individual company drivers at all. And yet they clearly state that when a carrier gets audited, their driver's safety records will be reviewed. They also have a pre-employment screening program in place to allow trucking companies to get driver safety information before hiring a driver. Will this pre-employment screening and safety rating system apply to owner-operators only? What effects will CSA 2010 have on company drivers? Let's take a look. Is Team Driving The Future In Trucking? Posted on 9 February 2010 @ 7:09 am Written by Brett Aquila I hear a lot of people talking about how the trucking industry is moving heavily toward team operations and pretty soon we'll all be running team. They say trucking companies aren't making money with solo drivers, that in order to get more productivity out of the trucks they're going to force us all to run team. Now that the economy has slowed there has seemingly been an increase in the number of trucking companies that are running more team operations or are requiring new drivers to team up when coming out of school. So is it true? Will teaming be the future of trucking? Let's take a look at what's going on.
