    FreightWaves Today | November 13

    Malcolm and Julie start with headlines on liability risks from AI dash cams, Hapag-Lloyd’s jump in third-quarter profit and how the midterm election results could affect trade policy. Eyal Cohen, founder and CEO of Humble Robotics, explains how the company’s $51 million raise will move its cabless, autonomous electric Hauler into customer pilots, and why short-haul moves between ports, rail terminals and warehouses are a strong fit for automation. Andy Kuchar, President of Centerline Insurance Company, discusses trailer liability exposures, per-shipment cargo coverage for freight moving to and from Mexico, and how the Montgomery ruling has changed the way companies think about coverage. Julie’s SONAR update looks at rising rates, tight flatbed and reefer capacity, early peak season activity and the pressure on small carriers as truck counts fall. To close the show, Matt Leffler, the Armchair Attorney and co-host of Freight Expectations, breaks down where the racketeering case against C.H. Robinson and TQL stands, what AI dash cam footage means for discovery, the legal fallout from the leadership shake-up at Nvidia, and whether a safety waiver for autonomous trucks could someday apply to human drivers.

    AI Dash Cam Liability Gaps, Hapag-Lloyd Profit Surge, & Midterm Trade Uncertainty | The Morning Minute

    In this episode, we kick things off by examining a troubling blind spot in fleet safety technology that's creating new courtroom risks for trucking companies. Speaking at the American Trucking Associations' Management Conference and Exhibition in Charlotte, defense attorneys warned that AI-only dash cams are recording dangerous driving behavior that the artificial intelligence never flags for review, with analysis showing up to thirty percent of AI-triggered videos held other risks the system missed. The panel came just days after a Dallas County judge upheld a massive six hundred four million dollar jury verdict, underscoring that fleets will be held responsible for any footage they hold regardless of whether the AI flagged it. Next, we shift over to the water as German container carrier Hapag-Lloyd rides a wave of robust spot freight rates to sharply higher earnings. The shipping giant reported third-quarter group profit of nine hundred ninety-nine million dollars, nearly six times higher than a year earlier, driven primarily by freight rates that jumped to one thousand eight hundred eight dollars per twenty-foot equivalent unit. Based on continued strength in spot rates, Hapag-Lloyd raised its full-year earnings outlook to four point six billion to five point zero billion dollars, up from its previous forecast of three point nine billion to four point four billion dollars. Finally, we explore how fresh political uncertainty is complicating the trade landscape as container imports cool after an unusually long peak season. The Democratic sweep of both houses of Congress in last week's U.S. midterm elections has introduced new uncertainty for trade and logistics, leaving the Trump administration facing competing pressures between voter concerns over affordability and the potential to use trade policy as an area for executive action. Trans-Pacific ocean rates fell slightly this past week as carriers' planned general rate increases failed to take hold, but remained around peak-season levels at eight thousand two hundred dollars per forty-foot equivalent unit to the U.S. West Coast.

    TRUCKERS ARE GETTING SQUEEZED FROM ALL SIDES – FOLLOW THE MONEY | BRAKE CHECK

    $6 diesel, Slow-paying brokers, Factoring contracts with more fine print than a mortgage. Everybody wants a piece of your trucking business...but who’s leaving anything for the people actually hauling the freight? On this episode of Brake Check on FreightWaves, Charles follows the money from the fuel pump to the paycheck, exposing the hidden costs, expensive mistakes, and financial traps squeezing American truckers and small carriers. First, Mike Roeth, Executive Director of the North American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE), breaks down what fuel efficiency is REALLY worth when diesel prices explode. We’re talking real-world MPG, cost per mile, driver habits, maintenance, and how carriers can stop burning profits with every mile. Then, Brett Schroeder, Chief Sales Officer at Apex Capital, takes us inside the financial side of trucking. Factoring contracts, broker credit risk, slow payments, fuel advances, and the fine print that could cost carriers thousands. We’re asking the questions every trucker and fleet owner should be asking: How much money is one extra MPG actually worth? Are you losing profits without even knowing it? When does factoring help, and when does it hurt? What happens when a broker goes broke owing you money? Are you hauling profitable freight or just financing everybody else’s business? No corporate fluff. No financial fairy tales. Just real conversations about keeping American trucking profitable. Because hauling the freight is only half the battle….Keeping the money? That’s where things get interesting. Drop a comment: What’s hurting your bottom line more — fuel costs, freight rates, or getting paid?

    Cyberattack Hits Hunt, Ryder & Echo, Texas Trucker Indicted, and USPS Cuts Losses | The Morning Minute

    In this episode, we kick things off by examining a massive cybersecurity crisis affecting some of the logistics industry's biggest players. A relatively new criminal gang called Whitearmor has launched targeted attacks since late October, and J.B. Hunt, Ryder System, and Echo Global Logistics have all been hit with multimillion-dollar ransom demands. The gang claims to hold vast amounts of employee records, carrier contacts, and invoices, and all three companies now face federal lawsuits from employees alleging they failed to protect personal information. Meanwhile, federal authorities are cracking down hard on labor violations along the southern border. A Laredo-based trucking company owner has been indicted on federal charges after prosecutors allege his firm employed fifty-seven unauthorized foreign drivers on B-1 visas to haul domestic freight across the United States. By allegedly paying these drivers between twenty-five and fifty cents per mile compared to the seventy cents paid to authorized drivers, the company reportedly saved nearly three hundred thousand dollars in labor costs while violating federal immigration law. Finally, we explore the ongoing financial struggles at the nation's mail carrier as the U.S. Postal Service reduced its annual operating loss by twelve point seven percent to six point five billion dollars in fiscal year twenty twenty-six. Despite growth in Ground Advantage parcel services and marketing mail, Postmaster General David Steiner and CFO Luke Grossman are calling on Congress and regulators for urgent reforms, warning that the Postal Service could face insolvency by twenty thirty-one when its retiree health benefit fund is exhausted.

    How 2 Con Artists Stole $760K in Diesel Using Stolen Fleet IDs | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

Highway’s Q3 Freight Fraud Index shows hijacked email accounts behind 40% of stolen loads. Nvidia hardware goes missing somewhere between Oakland and Fort Worth. The RICO suit against C.H. Robinson and TQL gets a jury date of 2028. And two Georgia men are charged in a $760,000 fuel card scheme that ran for five months before anyone noticed. Then four guests take the hot seat: Steve Shebuski, VP of pre-sales at MCA Connect, gives a reality check on autonomous trucking. Driverless trucks are already running in Texas, so what happens when one shows up at a warehouse that isn’t staffed or connected to receive it? Sarah Abernethy, director of marketing communications at Kenworth, explains the logistics of hauling the 2026 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree. It’s a 76-foot spruce from Idaho’s Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forest traveling more than 2,000 miles to Washington, D.C. This is Kenworth’s 13th straight year hauling the People’s Tree. Jack Holmes, CEO of STG Logistics, talks about going from UPS package handler to leading STG out of bankruptcy. He covers why owning intermodal assets is cool again and his plan to unify six businesses around fanatical service. Mitchell Ward, chairman and CEO of MW Logistics, explains why data is worthless if nobody acts on it. He also discusses keeping the human touch in an AI world and how 53% of MW’s business came to run on dedicated electric vehicles. Happy Veterans Day to all who served.
