Sadly, that is part of the fault of the system. Carriers are now starting to review a drivers CSA score, just like they do an MVR record.

Well CSA 2010 is a pretty big concern for companies. It is basically a complete re-write of the system for safety. They are still coming up with new formulas. Just as recently as August they announced another change of the formulas. Most carriers are concerned that this should not go into...

If you were more daring you would have opened it all the way up! LOL

While the drivers are not the current targets, every driver now has a psp score, that carriers will look be looking at. Every driver is being rated in the FMCSA data base. They may not be doing direct driver interventions today, but I believe that is the next step in this whole process. Wait...

Primary topics were: CSA 2010 New EPA mandate on fuel economy and emissions and the effects on future engines. Infrastructure, tolling and road privatization. Economic issues and taxation. Attack on the owner operator model.

I think if you re-read that statement he is saying we DO NOT always have the cheapest prices, but they use us for our service and drivers. So that would be the NOT cheap rate that trickles down. Tony, welcome aboard. I dont think I got to meet you?

Really to bad such a great cause is tangled up in bureaucracy. Still a great thing that everyone involved is doing.

Thank you sir. Hard to believe 6 years ago we didn't even have an expedite division! I have enjoyed posting on here whenever possible. I have learned a lot and met a lot of good people over my year or so on here. Often times, my position is seen as "the enemy". I have seen a community on...

Kind of a cool thing. If you sort the viewed category, this is the 17th most viewed thread ever! Almost all of the one's that were viewed more were the monthly locations!

Well just so everyone knows, we did officially cap our current volume of vans. We are finishing up the couple guys who were in process and I think that will be done tomorrow. We are only going to take a few more "full size" sprinters. We are still turning down or brokering out too many loads...

Thanks to everyone who called our recruiting department about this. But, this is not Load One that Bruno is talking about.
