Alarming reports raise serious commercial trucking safety concerns

R

ecent auditor general reports in Ontario and Manitoba have uncovered major gaps when it comes to enforcement of regulations governing commercial motor vehicle fleets, drivers, and monitoring of the programs. The audits have concluded that both provinces missed the opportunity to remove thousands of unsafe commercial vehicles and drivers from roads. Since collisions involving commercial vehicles have a higher risk of injury and death due to the size of the vehicles involved, it is absolutely critical to ensure that recommendations from these reports are acted upon timely to protect the safety of all road users. The need of the hour is to have an effective and efficient system to consistently carry out safety programs that promote and enforce the operation of commercial vehicles in compliance with legislative and policy requirements.

The Canadian trucking industry has launched a political action campaign compelling Ottawa to end the non-compliant, driver misclassification scheme known as Driver Inc. where the drivers are incorporated and receive their pay without any source deductions. The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) is calling for law-abiding, compliant trucking companies and drivers to join the fight against industry’s underground economy by pressing the federal government to pledge their commitment and enforcement resources towards ending the controversial business model. The CTA estimates that Ottawa loses at least $1 billion in tax revenue to Driver Inc. practices in the trucking industry.

Ontario has announced a comprehensive draft Southwestern transportation plan which includes several measures that would help the trucking industry improve its efficiency, enhance highway and driver safety and protect fleets from unscrupulous tow truck operators. With more than $1.1 billion worth of goods traveling on southwestern Ontario roads every day, this is a timely initiative.

Distracted driving is a growing epidemic that affects all road users and proactive efforts to deter distraction are critical. In this regard, Transport Canada (TC) has embarked on developing comprehensive training material to help mitigate driver distraction in the motor carrier industry. The project will include training material for drivers and a fleet management guideline for managers to mitigate driver distraction. We look forward to the successful completion of the project.

One chronic problem the ministry has not addressed is hiring and retention, the union said.

“Being an enforcement officer and auditor comes with threats, violence and exposure to extreme weather, as well as coming into contact with chemicals and biohazards.”

It said officers work long, irregular hours and must maintain a professional manner when dealing with uncooperative businesses.

In its response, the ministry said it appreciates the work of the auditor general and welcomes the recommendations on how to improve the Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement Program.

“We agree with all the recommendations and are committed to implementing them as quickly as possible and will report back regularly on our progress,” it said.

CTA campaign targets ‘underground economy scam’ The Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA) continues to fight against fleets that misidentify employed drivers as independent contractors – and has now rolled out a political action campaign to take the case to Ottawa.

The latest tools in the fight against Driver Inc. include the template for a group company letter, a driver petition, and an email message for MPs explaining how the business practice affects compliant trucking companies and the Canadian economy.

Carriers are asked to sign the letter in the call to have federal agencies like the Canada Revenue Agency and Labour

Canada “eradicate the underground economy�.

The CTA is also encouraging its members to have drivers sign the petition.

Separate email templates have been designed for governing Liberals and opposition members.

“The legal issues are clear and now the outstanding issue is the scale of the enforcement response from the Government of Canada,� said CTA president Stephen Laskowski.

The CTA estimates that the pay scheme costs Canadian coffers $1 billion.

Insulin-using truck drivers cleared for cross-border work

Insights that deliver the goods

October 14, 2020

International Centre, Mississauga, Ontario

Truck drivers with insulin-treated diabetes are now officially cleared for cross-border operations, under a medical reciprocity agreement between Canada and the U.S. Canadian commercial motor vehicle operators are being encouraged by the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators (CCMTA) to contact individual licensing jurisdictions about the process used to remove the Code W from licences, allowing them to operate in the U.S. The update relates to a September 2018 ruling by the U.S. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which allowed those with a stable insulin regimen and properly controlled insulin-treated diabetes mellitus to operate commercial motor vehicles as of Nov. 19, 2018.

The change is now reflected in letters exchanged by the FMCSA and Transport Canada, updating a 1998 agreement under the North American Free Trade Agreement for reciprocal recognition of medical fitness requirements.

Canadian jurisdictions are in the midst of a process to inform diabetes-related Code W licence holders about the change.

They’re also issuing new commercial motor vehicle operator licences without the Code W designations, although the implementation timelines for that work will vary, she says.

The program, which promotes environmentally-friendly efforts in the trucking industry, links manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers, and logistics service providers with fuel-efficient carriers. The initiative also aligns with the MTA’s long-standing positions on environmental stewardship and the reduction of greenhouse gas.

“The SmartWay program is another tool our industry members can utilize to access free resources and tools that help track their fuel efficiency, while reducing their emissions and operating costs,” said Don Stewart, senior business development manager for the MTA. “A win-win scenario for all Canadians.”

The MTA will promote the program to all industry stakeholders in the province, and not limit opportunities solely to its members. Stewart said the MTA will release videos and links to the program on its website, and launch a social media campaign, a monthly newsletter, and an educational webinar this coming February.

“By promoting programs like SmartWay, we can help educate our industry members and all stakeholders of the importance of fuel efficiency, while simultaneously reducing their GHG emissions,” said Stewart. “A more efficient industry will support more employment and generate additional economic growth for our provincial and national economies.”

Ontario bolsters fight against emissions ‘delete kits’

Ontario is taking action to reduce smog-causing pollutants by targeting the use of emissions-control “delete kits” in the trucking industry.

In two Decision Notices posted just before Christmas, the Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) outlined its processes, action plan and timelines for addressing environmentally non-compliant carriers using delete kits.

The notices outlined the regulatory process for developing the electronic test to detect emissions tampering, the implementation of an environmental test component in the annual safety inspection for a truck, and the amendments that transfer responsibility for vehicle emission inspections and enforcement from the MECP to the Ministry of Transportation.

The Ontario Trucking Association has welcomed the move against non-compliant carriers.

Alberta government to offer unlimited carrier and public profiles for free

ÁñìðàÅ ÃðÕÅð ÁÃÆîå ÕËðÆÁð Áå¶ êìÇñÕ ê̯øÅÂÆñ î°øå ÓÚ Õð¶×Æ êÌçÅé Anyone looking to obtain an online carrier profile in Alberta are now able to do so free of charge, as the Ministry of Transportation aims to reduce red tape for the commercial carrier industry. The change came into effect on Jan. 3.

Prior to being free, people could get two free profiles per year, with each additional being $2 per page. A typical profile normally starts at around 21 pages. Hard copies of the profiles will continue to come with a fee to cover printing and mailing costs.

Providing these profiles at no cost is an effort to encourage more carriers, shippers, drivers, and the general public to reference and use on-road performance data as often as they need.

The Alberta Motor Transport Association (AMTA) said this is important information that directly aids in monitoring and evaluating a company’s compliance and will help improve road safety.

Carrier profiles are regulated under the National Safety Code for commercial vehicles, which monitors 16 individual standards in an effort to reduce the number and severity of collisions.

AMTA calls for Hwy 3 twinning to increase safety ¶.ÁËî.àÆ.¶. òμñ¯º ðð¾ÇÖÁÅ òèÅÀ°ä ñÂÆ ÔÅÂÆò¶ C ù ç¯åðøÅ Õðé çÆ î³× Twinning Hwy 3 in Southern Alberta has jumped to the beginning of the line and become a top priority for the provincial trucking association.

With more than 200 km requiring twinning to enhance a safer commute and flow for commercial trucks, Alberta Motor Transport Association (AMTA) president Chris Nash said continued growth along the highway corridor has made the infrastructure upgrade a necessity.

Studies of the Hwy 3 corridor were completed by the Highway 3 Twinning Development Association (H3TDA), which identified 13 sections in need of an upgrade. Some sections of the highway have been twinned, but additional environmental and historical planning needs to be conducted to proceed with the remaining 200 km, which includes the section from Medicine Hat, Alta., to the B.C. border.

Mack leading the charge with electric LR ÇÂñËÕÇàÌÕ ÁËñ.ÁÅð. ê¶ô Õð Õ¶ îËÕ ìÇäÁÅ î¯ãÆ Mack Trucks has taken the wraps off the industry’s first fully-electric refuse truck to be put into service, a Mack LR Electric, which will soon be deployed by the New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY).

The truck was demonstrated Jan. 9 at the Mack Customer Center in Allentown, Pa., to a group of truck editors and DSNY representatives. Jonathan Randall, senior vice-president of North American sales and marketing, said DSNY – the world’s largest sanitation department – is the ideal fleet to put the truck through its paces.

DSNY is on a mission to become carbonneutral by 2050, and to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2035.

“We can’t do it without this electric truck,” said Rocky DiRico, deputy commissioner of the NYC Sanitation Department.

The fleet runs 2,346 collection trucks, 99% of which are Macks. It collects about 12,000 tons of residential and industrial waste every day.

Mack LR Electric Truck.

The truck is expected to handle an eight-hour îËÕ ÁËñ.ÁÅð. ÇÂñËÕÇàÌÕ àð¾ÕÍ collection route, at which time its remaining battery capacity will be analyzed. Uniquely, New York City uses its collection trucks to plow residential streets.

In addition to reduced emissions, other benefits of electric refuse trucks include reduced noise and lower maintenance costs.

The electric LR features two AC motors and produces 496 peak hp and 4,051 lb.-ft. of torque. The truck is equipped with a Heil 25-yard capacity DuraPack 5000 rear loader. The LR being delivered to DSNY features a two-speed Mack Powershift transmission and Mack axles. But instead of being adorned with a gold bulldog on the front to signify a vertically integrated vehicle, this truck’s bulldog is copper-colored to denote its fully-electric powertrain.

When the electric LR is put into service, DSNY will be closely monitoring several metrics, including: uptime; range; miles; driver feedback; acceleration; payload; regenerative braking; gradeability; state of charge at start and end of route; charging time and duration; and overall functionality.

A logical mind

ÇÂμÕ åðÕó×å ÇÂéÃÅé

By Abdul Latheef

Áìç°ñ ñåÆø òμñ¯º

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario In a video posted on YouTube by his employer Rush Truck Centres of Canada, Manjinder Bajwa passionately explains the features of a 2020 International LT Series truck.

Frequently switching between Punjabi and English, he tries to convince potential buyers that the truck they are looking at right now is much better than the rigs they have seen before.

But if you thought Bajwa, 42, is a typical truck salesman, you got it wrong.

That is because selling is just the latest in a string of trucking industry gigs he has worked on – driver, dispatcher, third-party logistics worker, and now account manager looking after sales.

Bajwa said that experience as well as his background as a computer programmer helped him a lot in dealing with customers.

“I can tell you one thing: When you’re a programmer, you do things in a Manjinder Bajwa logical way,” he said.

That is especially helpful when spec’ing trucks, he said.

Surprisingly, Bajwa believes selling trucks is more stressful than driving them.

“Because we have goals, we’ve to fulfill those goals. Trucking is less stressful. No one bothers you. The level of stress is totally different. When you’re selling, you have to look after each and every one.”

Bajwa’s trucking career spans some 20 years.

After graduating from Guru Nanak Dev University in Amritsar in 1999, he did what most young people in Punjab, India, aspire to do: Head to North America, looking for a job.

With a bachelor’s degree in commerce and an advanced diploma in computer programming, his natural choice was the Silicon Valley in California.

But he had a decision to make: Go to the U.S. on a two-year work permit and to an uncertain future, or go to Canada and

get permanent residency in just a matter of years.

Bajwa chose Canada, but the timing was terrible.

Soon after he arrived in Toronto, the IT industry began laying off people in their thousands, dashing his hopes of finding a job in that sector.

“Many of my friends at the time urged me to go to trucking, where you could make good money.”

Bajwa also estimated that upgrading his computer skills would cost him tens of thousands of dollars, while learning to drive trucks even at the top institute would be much lower.

“As a commerce graduate, I calculated my investment vs. my return, and decided to go for trucking.”

So, Bajwa ended up at Lambton College from where he received his AZ licence.

“If you want to become a professional, you’ve to learn from professionals,” he said.

Bajwa started out as a long-haul driver, but soon realized that he liked city routes more, and opted for that.

His brothers are also in trucking, running their own logistics company. One of them also worked as an enforcement inspector.

And talking of enforcement, Bajwa thinks many small, independent companies in with five to 10 trucks are not taking safety seriously.

“They are hard workers, but they don’t pay much attention to safety.”

He also thinks many drivers are not fully aware of all aspects of a truck operation. For example, he said, some truckers don’t even know how an emissions control system works.

“It is all about education. Right now, the problem is that the emissions system is not in the curriculum,” he said.

“When I am selling trucks, I try to educate the customer telling them ‘Hey, you have to keep these little things in mind.’”

Another problem is the driver mentality, with many truckers from the South Asian community lacking a passion, Bajwa said.

He said more than 50% of drivers are in the industry for the money.

“When the passion is not there, and when only money is there, you’re not putting your 100% in it.”

As someone who loved driving trucks, Bajwa clocked about 800,000 accident- or ticket-free miles in 10 years, of which he is very proud of.

Another thing he is proud of is his collection of designer pens.

“My hobby is collecting expensive and good-looking pens,” he chuckled, adding that he has close to 100 pens, worth about $10,000.

Bajwa lives with his wife Kiratpal and 13-year-old son Gurjaap in Brampton, Ont.

Shell Rotella greases come to Canada

ñ°ìðÆÕ˺àà ôËμñ ð¯à¶ñÅ çÆÁ» ×ÌÆû Ô°ä ÕËé¶âÅ ÓÚ òÆ Çîñä×ÆÁ»

Shell Rotella is bringing a portfolio of greases to Canada, in the form of HD, SD, MP and ET formulations.

The HD is a premium heavy-duty grease for wheel bearings and general chassis lubrication for on- and offroad vehicles and general equipment.

It is mechanically stable over long periods of severe vibration, and offers enhanced extreme-pressure properties as well as lasting protection in the face of water contamination. It also offers shear stability in high-speed wheel bearings.

A special-duty moly grease, known as the SD, supports applications such as power take-off linkages, trailers and hitches. The ET is an extreme-temperature tacky grease for lubricating industrial, farm, construction and yard equipment. Its lithium complex formula offers better retention on exposed surfaces like fifthwheel plate pivots, wheel bearings, springs, open pivot joints, and equipment exposed to weather.

Rounding out the portfolio is a multi-purpose lithium grease known as MP. It’s for general chassis, springs, pivot points, lowspeed bearings, and equipment like mowers, trailers, lifts, and loader buckets. www.rotella.shell.com

Thermo King TRU sheds unwanted pounds Thermo King’s SLXi local transport refrigeration unit (TRU) is 200 lb. lighter than competing options, supporting single temperature distribution fleets.

The unit’s slim profile reduces the required tractor-trailer gap by seven inches, helping to protect the TRU when turning corners on tight city streets.

The Thermo King Whisper kit is standard on all the SLXi Local units, ensuring they are three decibels quieter than similar units.

The TRU also runs on R452 A refrigerant. www.thermoking.com
