Election eve; drivers surveyed on HOS; is supply chain AI overhyped? | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On Episode 779 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking about how the election may impact freight. With Trump and Harris having such different policies on taxes, tariffs and foreign policy, this election represents two very different paths forward for trade.

How do drivers feel about hours-of-service regulations? J. J. Keller’s Josh Lovan breaks down their latest HOS Pulse, which looks at how drivers are impacted by these regulations. 

Don Everhart is on the move. After making a big impact with FreightVana, he’s recently moved on to Transflo. We’ll find out what’s in store for him, and we’ll look into why he thinks AI is both the most important and overhyped tech that will emerge in supply chain over the next five years. 

ePost Global’s Carlos Barbosa tells us what global e-commerce has to say about holiday peak season.

Plus, Canada’s largest port on lockdown;  RaceTrac crime ring busted; RIP Peanut and Fred; Titanic Halloween costume doesn’t sink; and more.
