peterfoster+FollowTruckers Sound Off: Rules or Roadblocks?Over coffee, did you hear truckers are pushing back hard against rules they say make their jobs tougher and pricier? From pricey electronic logs to strict driving hour rules, many drivers want more flexibility—like shorter breaks and less paperwork. The drama? Some say these rules keep roads safe, while others argue they just make life harder (and more expensive) for everyone. Plus, truckers want more transparency on broker fees and less double-taxation at tolls. If you’re shipping anything, these changes could mean faster, cheaper deliveries—or not! #TruckingLife #FreightTalk #MoneyHacks #Logistics #BusinessNews #Business10573Share
