    Building a Culture that Outlives You: Insights from Bennett

    In this fireside chat, Charles Gracey and CEO Marcia Taylor discuss Bennett Family Company’s journey from a 15-truck fleet with $500 to a global powerhouse. Marcia credits their success to a foundation of faith and the dedication of three generations of family. Growth was driven by niche specialization and listening to customers, such as expanding into the crane business to meet specific needs. Marcia advises small fleets to strictly know their costs and prioritize financial stability over aesthetics like "chrome," which doesn't pay the bills. She distinguishes building a "business" from just having a "job" through purpose and culture. Despite challenges like litigation and tight margins, Marcia remains bullish on the industry’s future Keep up with Live FreightWaves Events Other FreightWaves Shows Learn more about your ad choices.

    Trucking Bankruptcies Surge, 'Trojan Driver' Cargo Theft, and PlusAI SPAC Canceled | The Morning Minute

    In today's episode, we discuss the recent surge of financial closures hitting small carriers and brokers across the country. Listen in to learn why Illinois has become a major hotspot for these trucking liquidations, driven by tight margins and elevated operating costs. We also explore a concerning new cargo security threat that involves criminal networks infiltrating legitimate carriers rather than setting up fake companies. This elaborate scheme allows thieves to pass normal hiring checks and slowly gain access to high-value loads before orchestrating a routine-looking theft. Finally, we cover the latest developments in autonomous trucking as a major technology developer cancels its plans to go public via a SPAC merger. Despite the deal falling apart due to market conditions, the company continues to project strong revenue and retains the backing of its high-profile investors.

    Beyond the "Driver Shortage": OOIDA’s Fight for Quality, Training, and Highway Safety

    In this exclusive fireside chat, FreightWaves analyst Thomas Wasson sits down with OOIDA President Todd Spencer to confront the most pressing, and often controversial, legislative issues facing owner-operators today. Is the trucking industry truly suffering from a "driver shortage," or is the real crisis rooted in a broken training pipeline that prioritizes cheap labor over highway safety? Spencer sounds off on the controversial rise of "fly-by-night" CDL schools , the alarming safety impacts of selective English-language proficiency enforcement by authorities, and the urgent push for Delilah's Law to regulate non-domiciled drivers.
