Everyone loves to talk about an improving economy, obviously, but the side effects of increased business activity can include growth problems that are mostly good to have – as long as they don’t become insurmountable or threaten a company’s competitive position. A prime example is the building truck driver shortage, which is growing as the overall economy improves after the downturn a decade ago. This quarter we examine what exactly drivers want and what methods fleets are using to attract and keep drivers. Also, the long-awaited e-Log mandate is law, but enforcement will be soft at least until April. Between now and then fleets should examine their operations for full compliance. Inside our safety supplies partner J.J. Keller shows you how. And finally our annual golf tournament raised nearly a quarter of a million dollars for political action. As always there's news, announcements and so much more. Thanks for our advertisers for their continued support.
