16 loads for 75 trucks is kind of a surprise for Landstar if accurate?

Just another stupid governmental move. We have spent millions and years of research to determine split speeds are more dangerous. Soooo, what do they do? Lets have split speed limits again. Followed by more millions spent to determine they are unsafe. :confused:

Using common core, that would be the correct answer. :D

Very depressing incident. Prayers to all that are involved. Things can happen so quick.

Could've just been doing research? :eek:

They have something close. Let folks ask questions via the web, and the actual moderator s ask them. That controls the debate and gets the questions out.

Oh ok. Turtle and I will do it. lol

Maybe the carrier could assist by turning it back on so you can locate it?

After reading all this, think I may start a insurance agency. lol:eek:

Companies are making record profits and many are or have cut rates to their operators. There are numerous industry reports that confirm that. Then they wonder why the quality of there drivers is slipping or they just can't find any.

Very true. Most of our higher paying freight is credential type stuff which shuts out most competitors. Not likely to see that passed between brokers.

After reading all this, I am feeling the urge to use the restroom. Don't want wet shoes.

I would say they are. Ours personally have not, but they haven't risen either. I am amazed at how cheap some of the loads go for. We had a large carrier advertising here recently with "great pay" . Dollar a mile and FSC. Wow. Not even worth pulling out of a parking space.

Great explanation. I would agree that some want the proper coverage, but not sure what that is. The other concern as some are driving down the rates, it lends itself to more rogue operators and carriers trying to game the system. No easy answers.

The tricky part is providing the right information. As more information becomes available, more will find a way around it. Seems to be the case. 300 a year doesn't sound like the right kind of policy. Sounds like a basic auto policy.

The last I heard they were trying to work something out with Progressive. Which translates into no one knowing anything. The lawsuit I believe was over a wreck and who paid what part of the claim.

It isn't a new lawsuit as it was settled some time ago. If one currently is insured through CIS, it is business as usual whether adding a truck or anything like that. What they are not doing is writing a policy for someone new to Progressive. They are trying to get that resolved is my...

I don't agree. Just would have to be the right one.

Liberal media wouldn't allow it. Too much of a connection with Bush.

I like the concept in certain applications. Anyone reading this will likely be retired before they have to worry about being replaced. More apt to be replaced by foreign illegals before automation of any kind. :rolleyes:
