Description

On today’s episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is talking about one of the biggest issues plaguing our industry: double brokering and load board fraud. Truckstop found reports of fraud jumped by 400% from the fourth quarter of 2021 to the fourth quarter of 2022. How can shippers and carriers fight back? 

We’ll hear from Metafora’s Ryan Schreiber and FreightWaves’ Rachel Premack and Justin Martin as they shine a light on the problem. 

Waabi promises a safe and scalable new paradigm in autonomous trucks with its solution. We’ll meet Waabi founder and CEO Raquel Urtasun, who, aside from being a professor at the University of Toronto, spent nearly four years as Uber’s chief scientist in its Advanced Technologies Group. 

Plus, is the freight market getting less volatile; Florida immigrant trucking protest flops; blitz week begins; Tesla’s new robots; awful TikTok recipes; and a new method to strap with.
