Truck Inspections Uncovered: Safety Blitz Results, CDL Compliance Tips, and Trucker Humor

Send us a text

Ever wondered why so many trucks are being pulled off the road during inspections? On the Rolling 18 Podcast, I, Walter Gatlin, unravel the startling results from a recent safety blitz in Louisville, Texas, where a shocking 43% of vehicles were deemed unfit for the highway. With my four decades of road experience, I offer vital tips on rigorous pre-trip and post-trip checks, underscoring the necessity of staying vigilant as similar inspections ramp up across the nation. This episode is a must-listen for anyone serious about road safety and compliance, emphasizing that these efforts are about protecting everyone, not just cracking down on truckers.
Switching gears to keep things light, I bring updates on CDL compliance, stressing the importance of staying informed about potential suspensions for infractions like drug or alcohol violations. It's crucial to know what the FMCSA reports, and how it might impact your career. To add a touch of humor, I share a chuckle from a classic scene in the 2015 movie "Vacation," where a CB radio exchange lightens the mood. As always, I'm grateful for your support and excited to announce our plans to move to Rumble for an even better experience. Sign off with my signature phrase, while reminding everyone to keep it safe out there.
