The biennial update is something every trucker on his or her own authority has to do – but it's not that hard, and you can do it yourself. Also, the easy way isn't always the best way. That's why leased-on truckers should have their own insurance coverage. And Washington state's governor has OK'd a $15.5-billion, two-year transportation budget – one that includes new and increased taxes and fees. 0:00 – Newscast 10:12 – Biennial update is an easy do-it-yourself item for truckers 24:48 – Why it's better to have your own insurance and not the carrier's 39:16 – Washington state to spend billions on roads – and hike taxes

Then, ELDs had Congress' attention last week, and OOIDA's Lewie Pugh was there to explain truckers' point of view.

Speed limiters in 2024 are less a story about what did happen and more about what didn't. Mark Schremmer of Land Line Magazine explains. Also, ELDs and a relatively new technology called geofencing are replacing the CB radio as a way to warn truckers of hazards ahead on the road. And a love of driving is how many truckers start. That certainly holds true for Mary Wilson, whose work in a bus led to her job in a truck. 0:00 – Speed limiters in 2024 – a story about what didn't happen 10:06 – New tech can warn truckers of hazards ahead 39:51 – A love of driving leads to a life behind the wheel

What does Rep. Sam Graves' return as chairman of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee mean for major trucking issues?

Then, from a trucking company that helped a trucker in need to a court that made a bad decision on tolls, we'll offer up some Roses and Razzberries.

How do you navigate through the confusion? Plus, we hand out roses to those doing right by truckers – and razzberries to those who aren't – in our latest installment of Roses and Razzberries. And finally, some good advice when it comes to all this talk about the electrification of large trucks: take a deep breath. 0:00 – U.S. Senator calls for more CDL scrutiny 10:17 – Surviving the information age 25:00 – Roses & Razzberries 40:06 – Anxious about the future?

I haven't stayed out for more than 3 days in a long time. So it was a little tough on the family as my wife was very busy here at home. You take a walk to go get something to eat which there is nothing close to do so and you drop your trailer in a doc door!!    An owner-op who says that he works 12 to 14 hours per day but still lives out of his truck because he doesn't earn enough. we dive into how deregulation helped lower costs for consumers but created hard times for truckers in the 1980s, and how factors like Electronic Logging Device regulations, long detention times, an aging driver population, and lack of home time are causing driver turnover rates over 100%.Support the show Follow us on facebook and Instagram.

Welcome to Five & Thrive: a weekly podcast highlighting the Southeast's most interesting news, entrepreneurs, and information of the week, all under 5 minutes.  My name is Jon Birdsong and I'm with Atlanta Ventures.  -- Company Coming Up:  Nectar, a TechStars Atlanta 21' company, helps real estate entrepreneurs scale with cash flow financing. Here is how it works: accredited investors invest in the Nectar Fund that yield 12-15% annual dividends. Nectar finds and works with the best and most proven short term rental entrepreneurs to help them grow their real estate portfolio and operation. These real estate investors are mostly proven AirBnB hosts with over 3 years of operating experience. This company is led by two Co-founders, Brittany Mosley and Derrick Barker. Both are Harvard graduates with extensive real estate and finance background. Keep an eye out for this company coming up and check out their website linked in the show notes.    Product of the Week:  This week we're highlighting Saleo led by Justin McDonald. Saleo empowers sales reps to build interactive and customized demos. As sales reps across the world give demos of their company's product, it is really hard to deliver an accurate, customized demo filled with rich data without the help of an engineer – which is timely and expensive. Saleo's software fixes this. There are several companies spawning in this early market and Saleo is making a fantastic splash with their entry. They recently raised their seed round. This market is one to follow in the upcoming months and years.      Events To Put on the Calendar:  The Jewish Business Network is hosting some top notch folks on July 25th at Chabad Intown, right across the street from Ponce City Market. Investors from Phoenix Capital, Overline, Joule, and Overtime will be sharing their thoughts and perspectives on the current state of fundraising and valuations. It is $18 to attend and the link is in the show notes.     Companies Worth Applying To: We mentioned them in episode one, but I just caught up with Ty Abernethy of Grayscale and they are hiring for senior positions in just about every category: VP of Sales, VP of Marketing, VP of Product, and more. Grayscale improves recruiting with SMS. Customers including Amazon, Wayfair, and hundreds of others use them to streamline communication with applicants and maintain a tight process when it comes to recruiting in high-volume industries.    Another early stage company hiring in Customer Success is TruckerCloud. This company is led by their CEO, Spencer Mitchell, and originated out of the Rule1 Ventures Studio. TruckerCloud connects any fleets' Electronic Logging Device (or ELD) data to any application with the use of their API. The product is scaling and customer success is needed. Give them search and click.        Acquisitions in the Air: It was announced this week that Nick Santora, the CEO of Curricula, sold his company to Huntress, the managed security platform for SMB's. Nick and his team started Curricula back in 2015 as a security awareness training platform. Instead of the boring, check the box, traditional training software, Nick focused on fun, storytelling techniques, to captivate employees' attention and provide a superior education. In early 2020, they raised $3M and have grown the team and customers ever since. What started as a one man show out of the Atlanta Tech Village has now grown to a $22M exit. Impressive and exciting for Nick and the entire Curricula team. He wrote a thorough and heartfelt post on the translation that I encourage all who are listening to read.    Annnnd, that's 5 minutes.   Thank you for listening to Five and Thrive.

Trucking is one of the most overlooked parts of our society.  What happens when automation takes over the jobs of the American truck driver? Why is there a truck driver shortage in the US? Is the China trade war causing problems for trucking.In today's episode, Vance Crowe sat down with Camden Civello, EVP to discuss the hidden world of trucking and logistics.  More than 12% of the population is employed in transportation and a huge percentage of that population is in truck driving. We discuss automation in trucking, UBI, Electronic Logging Devices that track hours on the road.Camden Civello is an Executive Vice President at LTI Trucking that oversees the the management of the Safety & Insurance, Maintenance, Recruiting, Analytics departments.  LTI Trucking has 300 trucks and is headquartered out of Saint Louis, Missouri.Find Camden on Twitter at @CamdenCivelloPeople mentioned in this week's Episode:Buck Mulligan @ThatBuckGuyHannah Morgan Miller @HannahMoMillerBullshit Jobs: A Theory written by David GraeberFollow the Vance Crowe Podcast Vance Crowe Podcast Facebook PageTwitter: @VanceCroweAbout The Vance Crowe Podcast:The Vance Crowe Podcast interviews experts in unexpected fields and gets them to reveal the discoveries that come from having a knowledge of a highly specific discipline.  Vance Crowe is the CEO of Articulate Ventures (www.VanceCrowe.com) a communications strategy company- and he is regularly invited to deliver speeches around the U.S. and Canada teaching audiences how to communicate so that others want to listen, understand and value what you have to say.  

It's time to hit the road, but before you do, you have to have some kind of ELD, electronic logging device. An ELD can frustrate you and there are a lot of them out there, so you want to make sure you make a good decision when you purchase one. In this episode we are going to cover some of the things you need to think about purchase your ELD. We cover 5 factors you should consider when purchasing an ELD. Here they are: Is it compliant with the FMCSA ELD regulation? (You can go to this FMCSA websiteto see which ones are good to go.) Is it easy to use? What other features does it have or should it have? How much does it cost? Do I need to buy a tablet to make it work? What ELD device do you use, let us know in the comments at HaulinAssetsLLC.com, and whether or not you like it.

I can't tell you how excited I am to share this episode with you. This episode is important for anyone who hauls livestock, equipment, commodities, seed, or any other agricultural product for commercial use. There are a lot of questions and confusion out there about federal hauling regulations relating to Hours of Service and Electronic Logging Devices.  These rules are complex, and are something that anyone involved in agriculture should be aware of. Today, Jara Settles, General Counsel at the Livestock Marketing Association, joins us to explain what electronic logging devices even do, walk through the rules, explain to whom they apply, discuss a number of exceptions, and talk some policy concerns for the livestock industry, in particular. I've talked with a lot of lawyers about this topic, and Jara is hands down the most knowledgeable.   Contact Info for Jara Settles Email jsettles@lmaweb.com  Website https://lmaweb.com/  Links to Topics Mentioned on the Show Livestock Marketing Association Facebook page FMCSA Agricultural Exemptions page

In today's podcast, I speak with Ryan Backstrand, Product Engineer and Korina Velasco, Marketing Manager for Right Weigh Load Scales. If you haven't heard of Right Weigh, it is a system of weighing your truck without having to drive to the nearest CAT Scale. How cool is that?! You'll learn how this product works, how much it costs, and how to install it, just to name a few. Additionally, Troy from the Big Rig Banter podcast dissects trucker pay, I point you to an awesome FAQ about Electronic Logging Devices (ELD) and a short book explaining truck weights, and I introduce a new segment that I think you truckers are really gonna dig. And obviously, I do some shameless self-promotion of a couple of podcasts I've been a guest on recently. I also talk about a service called Teledoc that seems custom-made for truckers.
