In case you’re wondering, I did get selected as a juror this week. I’m now 4 for 4 — four times called for jury duty, 4 times selected.

Our partners over at KeepTruckin launched a petition to change the FMCSA’s 14-hour rule.

KeepTruckin offers an affordable and easy-to-use ELD solution for small carriers and owner-operators, and they found that truck drivers often feel pressured to drive
