Trucking News and Then Some, With Your Hosts The Safety Mentor Team.

A lighthearted discussion regarding the very serious topic of federal regulations, state laws, and commercial drivers' rights.   Also the top today’s news we find truckers are interested in that is not directly related to trucking but may affect it.  Regulations and rules will always be here, they may change, but they will always be here. Everyone knows a piece of paper doesn't make you safe. Missing putting a state abbreviation on a log doesn't make you an unsafe driver. So what's the purpose of all of these regulations and rules? That's what we will discuss. How we keep our sanity trying to follow them without losing our main focus of safety. Your input as a driver, a company, an officer, an inspector or a safety person is valuable. What works, what doesn't. Together we can increase the safety of our highways and maybe have some fun while doing it.  Sometime safety related, sometimes not, sometimes trucking related, sometimes not, sometimes serious, sometimes not.  Some stories touch on the ridiculous, some are sad.  Please join us to discuss what we are discussing or what you would like to vent about.
