Trucking is transporting goods by road using large vehicles, such as semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, and other commercial vehicles. The trucking industry plays a vital role in the economy by moving goods from manufacturers to retailers and consumers. Truck drivers are responsible for operating these vehicles and delivering goods on time and in good condition.Tune in to learn more about Forum Mobility's company origins, services offered today and what drops in trucking capacity means for the overall supply chain. Today's episode of Resources for the Road is brought to you by NEXT Trucking. Host Gabrielle Bejarano chats with Will Mitchell, Vice President of Origination at Forum Mobility. The discussion on zero-emission drayage trucking gives more insight into the topic.NEXT Trucking is a company that specializes in providing digital freight brokerage services to connect shippers with truckers. Their platform allows shippers to find and book trucking services, track shipments in real time, and manage their transportation needs through a user-friendly interface. Zero-emission drayage trucking uses electric or hydrogen fuel cell-powered trucks for short-haul cargo transportation, typically at ports and intermodal rail yards. This type of trucking is considered more environmentally friendly as it produces zero emissions and significantly reduces noise pollution.In the United States, federal regulations require commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) to be equipped with electronic logging devices (ELDs) to track the hours of service (HOS) of truck drivers. The ELD mandate was put in place by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) in December 2017 and applies to all CMVs subject to the HOS regulations. The ELDs must be used to track the following information: date and time, engine hours, vehicle miles, location information, driver identification, and more.“We have had early seed money from a handful of dedicated and committed investors. They were really happy to announce that all these investors, plus a couple more, have doubled down on the investment in Forum Mobility and are committed to funding us to go out there and find the right people, push you to do what you need to do and go ahead and make this vision happen,” said Will Mitchell, Vice President of Origination at Forum Mobility.The future of trucking looks bright. With the help of technology and automation, the trucking industry is expected to become more efficient, safe, and sustainable.

CMV : Brad Pitt Looks Like He Smells Like An Old Bottle of Brut. That is the kind of stuff you will find on the absolute powerhouse of a subreddit r/changemymind, where truly civilized debate takes places among the many perspectives that walk the halls of RedditHS. In this, part 1 of our look at r/changemy view, we explore some of the culture behind the very popular sub, some of the commentary, and set the stage for a second episode focussed on our own CMVs (hint, u/itsyerdad's went slightly viral this week). Plus, a brief mention of Pence's fly, and an alternate theory to the Pit bread empire's testy family drama.

Over the next three episodes, I am going to take a deep dive into the FMCSA's safety program. For most people, compliance with all the FMCSA's rules and regulations is a daunting task that many are too intimidated to handle. I think there would be a lot of really good people who would make the jump to being an independent owner operator if this one thing did not seem so overwhelming. I hope these next few episodes can show people that it's not too hard, and they can do it if they are willing to learn and pay a little bit of attention to detail. What To Expect From Episode 41 CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) is the program the FMCSA uses to monitor the safety of trucking companies. During this episode I am going to explain how it works, the most important details and things to avoid that will get you in trouble. The CSA Program is designed to do four things: Identify motor carriers that pose a safety hazard. Intervene with identified motor carriers so they can correct safety problems. Assign motor carriers safety ratings. Prohibit motor carriers that receive an “Unsatisfactory” safety rating from operating CMVs. Craig and I will cover them all in detail during this episode, but if you want more of the nitty-gritty, click through for the full show notes.

Trucking News with Ruthann 8/5/2018 Trucking News with Ruthann features Mollie Tibbetts disappearance. CVSA weekly inspection coming up. Trucking New with Ruthann 5/8/2018. Semi Trucks, Truck Drivers and more. Low Bridge Semi Truck Inspection Week - During the week of Aug. 27-31, each state’s commercial motor vehicle law enforcement department may select one day of that week to capture data on rear impact guards, also referred to as underride guards, on trailers and semi-trailers in the United States. As the leading organization devoted to improving commercial motor vehicle (CMV) safety and inspection and enforcement uniformity throughout North America, the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) is often asked to weigh in on policies related to safety and enforcement, and to provide guidance to enforcement, industry and policy makers. As a data-driven organization, any decisions to support or oppose an issue must be supported by data analysis and strategic planning. Consequently, the Alliance is collecting information on rear impact guards to be well informed and properly equipped to assess and address rear impact safety requirements on CMVs. The event will also highlight this critical issue for motor carriers and drivers. Trucker stuck under a bridge Last year, the Stop Underrides Act of 2017 was introduced by Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) and Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) to reduce the number of preventable deaths and injuries caused by underride crashes and to improve motor carrier and passenger motor vehicle safety. CVSA received a letter from Senators Gillibrand and Rubio on Feb. 8, 2018, asking the Alliance to consider updating its current North American Standard Out-of-Service Criteria to add rear underride guards. The data collected during the Rear Impact Guard Check safety initiative will be reported to the CVSA Vehicle Committee at the CVSA Annual Conference and Exhibition in Kansas City, Missouri, in September. Based on that data, the committee will make a recommendation to the CVSA Board of Directors on how to proceed with this important issue. “The Alliance uses data to support its decision-making process,” said CVSA President Capt. Christopher Turner with the Kansas Highway Patrol. “Using quality, verifiable data and analytics allows the Alliance to assess and analyze information that can be used to support our stance on various issues, topics and propositions.” https://cvsa.org/news-entry/rear-impact-guard-check-2018/  

Thursday 12-3-15 6PM  "FMCSA Health Updates for CDL drivers" With Truck Driver Health continuing to be a major concern among drivers and the rest of the trucking community, Elaine Papp of HealthadnSafetyWorks.net joins us once again to keep us up to date on what is coming down the pike with FMCSA rules and possible changes. We'll be discussing the possibility of VA doctors being given the authority to perform CDL health physicals for U.S. Veterans who meet criteria for VA health care benefits, without having to be a part of the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners. We'll also be reviewing the rules for Insulin dependent diabetics and the progress on the NPRM regarding doing away with Insulin Exemptions for CDL drivers. FMCSA is proposing to permit drivers with stable, well-controlled insulin-treated diabetes mellitus (ITDM) to be qualified to operate commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce. Finally, what's happening with Sleep Apnea Ruling?  What should we be expecting? Be a part of the conversation by calling in 347-826-9170 to either listen or joining in with questions and comments.

Saturday June 27th 6:30 PM ET 347-826-9170 The FMCSA has posted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Qualifications of Drivers; Diabetes Standard, proposing to do away with the Diabetes Exemption Program. Although there are many drivers who feel this is a long overdue rule, others are concerned that the rule (the way it is written) would compromise the safety of the driver and the highways. Dr Randolph Rosarion, certified medical examiner in the US DOT FMCSA National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME) and Elaine Papp, board certified occupational health nurse and founder of Health and Safety Works, LLC, will be our special guests as they discuss the complex and unseen details of insulin dependent Diabetes mellitus and how it relates to the NPR and the professional driver. Qualifications of Drivers; Diabetes Standard Summary - FMCSA proposes to permit drivers with stable, well-controlled insulin-treated diabetes mellitus (ITDM) to be qualified to operate commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) in interstate commerce. Currently, drivers with ITDM are prohibited from driving CMVs in interstate commerce unless they obtain an exemption from FMCSA. Have questions about your Diabetes or the Proposed Rule?

Cytomegalovirus (CMV), similar to other members of the Herpesviridae family, can establish both persistent and latent infections. Each of the CMVs that are found in many animal species replicates in the salivary gland, and oral secretion represents a source of horizontal transmission. Locally restricted replication characterizes the immunocompetent individual, whereas in the immunocompromised host, protean disease manifestations occur due to virus dissemination. The virus is cleared by immune surveillance, and CD8+ T lymphocytes play a major role. Remarkably, certain cell types of salivary gland tissues are exempt from CD8+ T-lymphocyte control of murine CMV infection and require the activity of CD4+ T lymphocytes. The results presented here suggest that this activity is a function of Th1 cells. Neutralization of endogenous gamma interferon abrogated the antiviral activity of Th1 cells but not that of CD8+ T lymphocytes in other tissues. Neutralization of endogenous gamma interferon did not interfere with the induction of the cellular and humoral immune response but acted during the effector phase. Recombinant gamma interferon could not replace the function of Th1 cells in vivo and had limited direct antiviral activity in vitro. The results therefore suggest that gamma interferon represents one, but not the only, essential factor involved in salivary gland clearance, establishment of CMV latency, and, eventually, the control of horizontal transmission.
