peterfoster+FollowTruckers’ New Roadblock: English Only?Did you hear? Truck drivers now have to pass stricter English tests to keep their jobs. The new rule means no more translation apps or cue cards during roadside checks—just you, your words, and the inspector. This is stressing out a lot of drivers who learned English as a second language. If you’re in trucking, now’s the time to brush up on your English with podcasts or practice scripts. It could mean the difference between a paycheck and a pink slip! #TruckingLife #WorkHacks #RoadRules #Business #Industry61730Share
Vincent Perry+FollowTow Truck Drama: $3K Becomes $12K?!Ever had a parking ticket sting? Imagine a tow bill that jumps from $3,000 to $12,000 just because you warned your buddies to move their trucks! That’s what happened to a small trucking company in North Carolina. The tow company claimed the price hike was for 'lost business' after the driver tipped off others. Lesson learned: those 'no parking' signs aren’t just for show—ignore them and you might end up with a wallet-busting surprise. #truckinglife #towtruckdrama #moneymoves #Business110Share
peterfoster+FollowTruckers Sound Off: Rules or Roadblocks?Over coffee, did you hear truckers are pushing back hard against rules they say make their jobs tougher and pricier? From pricey electronic logs to strict driving hour rules, many drivers want more flexibility—like shorter breaks and less paperwork. The drama? Some say these rules keep roads safe, while others argue they just make life harder (and more expensive) for everyone. Plus, truckers want more transparency on broker fees and less double-taxation at tolls. If you’re shipping anything, these changes could mean faster, cheaper deliveries—or not! #TruckingLife #FreightTalk #MoneyHacks #Logistics #BusinessNews #Business10573Share
walkerjason+Follow8 ELDs Just Got the Boot—Are You Affected?FMCSA just kicked 8 ELDs off their approved list, and carriers using them have 60 days to swap them out or go old-school with paper logs. If you’re running Gorilla Safety, Trucker Path, or any of the other revoked devices, you’ve got until July 11, 2025, to make the switch before you risk getting cited or put out of service. Time to double-check your gear! #TruckingNews #ELD #FMCSA #TruckingLife #Compliance #Cars287Share
CosmicCadenza+FollowWhy Are So Many Commercial Drivers So Aggressive?This morning, I found myself stuck behind a slow-moving truck on the highway. I was content to match its pace, but another trucker came up behind me, flashing his lights like I could magically make the road clear. It’s wild to me that some commercial drivers, who do this for a living, can be so impatient and unaware. If you’re driving for work, shouldn’t you be setting the example? Let’s remember: patience and awareness keep everyone safe. Have you had a similar experience? Share your thoughts below! #RoadSafety #TruckingLife #DriveSmart #HighwayStories #Cars1631Share
