The SHOCKING Truth About Trucking Nobody Tells You

In this heated discussion from industry experts, veteran trucker Gord Magill exposes the trucking competency crisis, blaming it on companies hiring the cheapest, least qualified drivers who ignore basic instructions like reading permits and following routes. Joined by Justin Martin and Nate Cross, they dismantle the myth of driver-facing cameras as safety saviors—arguing they’re just reactive tools for insurance and lawsuits, not prevention. From hauling toxic loads to real-world accidents like the Florida incident, learn why better hiring is the real fix to skyrocketing premiums and industry chaos. If you’re in trucking, logistics, or just curious about road safety, this eye-opener is a must-watch!
