@grok That's a good short version. Had a trucking association who runs their own RRG reach out about how great RRGs are. Just wanted to make sure @RobCarpenter isn't completely retarded.

@grok with increases in costs what should the motor carrier minimum insurance of $750k be increased to and why? Second, tell us more about the negatives associated with trucking risk retention groups. People seem to be confused on RRG specific failures/unpaid victims.

How legislators and insurers built a trucking crisis. This is a story about what happens when an industry abandons underwriting, floods its own market with unvetted risk, collects premiums on self-certified applications, and then acts surprised when the losses show up. @FreightWaves freightwaves.com/news/how-legis…

@maybedanielleee Anyone notice that was England Logistics? You'd think a brokerage tied to a 4200 truck carrier would be a bit more careful. The golden rule must apply. "If my trucks must do it, then so shall yours."

@maybedanielleee A lot of shippers are duped into bad carriers through the shelter company shell game. Amazon keeps making the news and piling up the fatalities. At this point, how can they not know what they are doing?

Do we know of any shippers who contract directly with unsafe, noncompliant trucking companies?

@0JacktheReaper I have a wife. It got "put away" after charging my friends Cutlass. It's somewhere in the garage. Have the R-12 gauge set.

@RobCarpenter I can't trace the ownership for these car hauler hotshots. Circumstantial evidence points to a Chicago based Ukranian, but no solid evidence. The few plates I have run outside of FMCSA inspection data come back to dead people. People who died prior to buying a dually and wedge.

@SamNixonNAC Yes sir I created a tool that breakdowns all the delfated truck counts with high inspections and high vin counts then stock referenced them against each other. Half of them are tied together.

North Dakota pulling bumper pull trailer rear ends school bus drunk and on the phone. I'm telling you...hotshots is where the trouble went. (I know this isn't true "hotshot" but the pickups, and "it's not for commerce" trailer pullers are still where the trouble is.)

@0JacktheReaper @RobCarpenter If the Mini entered on yellow, then one must assume that the red Porsche and the F-150 failed to stop on red before completing the turn.

@RobCarpenter There's nothing illegal about entering an intersection on a yellow in the US, you just have to be in the intersection before it turns red.

The truck driver does not speak/read English. The truck driver does not have a valid CDL. The truck driver has alcohol. The truck driver SHOULD NOT BE ON OUR HIGHWAYS.

@0JacktheReaper @maybedanielleee If only Progressive and Geico would go away. Every shitheel carrier I come across tied into the Golla Group, Sakara, Pasada etc... shelter operation is insured by one of those two or an affiliate. Our insurance company vetted the hell out of us many years ago.

@maybedanielleee I guess the insurance companies are going to have to start vetting who they insure. I expect all the stocks of the largest ones to take a substantial hit on their next earnings report.

Here we have a ‘load board’ on a (an?) Uzbekistan hosted platform with United States Postal Service freight. Please explain to me how this isn’t federal fraud on some level.

CONTEST: If you can give me an actual Uzbek truck company with an active history, no major violations, no virtual/drop box address, and no snowflake association graphs - you win. Bet you can’t find a single one.

@RobCarpenter This here is my bread and butter. DOT#3830881 requested today. They insure ONE truck according to their cert. 1,112 deliveries in the last 60 days. They can't hide or control the delivery metrics on the load board. This is a front company for PK Logistix.

Where did all the non-domiciled and ELP drivers go?? Well....hotshot of course! Let's try this again. Carriers claiming one truck while getting 1000 inspections with 400+ VINs has become a huge issue for insurers and everybody sharing the road with these carriers, who are watering down their fleet size with their insurers and the FMCSA. 1 Truck. 700 Inspections. 400 VINs.

🚨 Truck driver has been arrested for driving without a CDL. The semi-truck driver was following too closely behind a school bus that was slowing for traffic on I-5 NB in Lacey, WA. He tried to avoid hitting the back of the bus but jackknifed instead. 3 people were transported to the hospital. No children were on the bus during the crash. The driver of this car hauler was arrested for driving a commercial vehicle without having a valid Commercial Driver's License.

@boneheadtruckrs Wedgies doin wedgie things.... Those are already foreigners. The ELP violations in those carriers are massive. PK LOGISTIX LLC DOT# 4521723 is the newest shelter company. Eastern European owned and operated. A lot of human trafficking claims.

@realcarrier411 Shouldn't say "nobody". I think we are all tired of what the industry has become. I work for a broker/carrier, and I have no problem tearing down a shady carrier, but just don't have info on the shady brokers being as we book maybe 5 loads a quarter from brokers.

@KF7ZKX We screen every broker hard that creates a Carrier411 account - more that brokers vet carriers. Brokers that create trials don't get access to our platform unless and until we allow it. We turn away 40% to 50% of the brokers that create trials every day and blacklist them.

🚨 Hey Carriers! 🚨 Do some brokers get away with too much crap? Drop your REAL list below - every single thing a broker has done that you'd want reported and exposed. Ghosting payments? Rate cuts after pickup? Double brokering? Lies on the load board? Harassment? No fluff. Be specific. Help us build the “CarrierGuard Report” list of items.
Sam Nixon@SamNixonNAC

@realcarrier411 The ratio is out of whack these days. It is roughly 13.5 carriers per broker and shrinking. To many brokers to not have some sort of rating system for them. The first item at the top of the page, bold lettering, should be OVERSEAS DISPATCH CENTER, if applicable.

@realcarrier411 Well, perhaps what you do with the information if verified is limit which brokers have access to your platforms. Nobody is vetting the brokers like they do the carriers. I see a few that are moving 60k loads per month, 6 months into existence. How? Chameleon brokers exist too.

My biggest concen about giving carriers the ability to submit "CarrierGuard Reports" about brokers... it's kind of like handing carriers a loaded gun to point at their own head. It would start a tennis match of reports flying back and forth between brokers and carriers. I know who would win the match. And it wouldn't be carriers.

Yesterday in Goldsboro, NC, a school bus hit a 7.5-foot bridge carrying Dillard Charter Academy students. 9 kids on board. 6 were transported to the hospital. Driver airlifted. 20.3 million kids ride school buses every day in America. 108 people die in school bus crashes every year. 13,200 get injured. The bus is still the safest option.
