Between softening demand, higher operating costs, and a stubborn shortage of qualified drivers, 2020 promises plenty of challenges for fleets. At least in the first half of the year.

Quote ---- and a stubborn shortage of qualified drivers?????? Gee well IF IF IF the PAY scale was up where it should be at companies maybe could hire some drivers and plus all this new E.L.D., is B.S. and drivers are quitting driving and going into other jobs and none of these younger people don't want to drive truck at low pay scale and be disrespected by management & shippers & the DOT , so hope trucks sit and store sheaves go empty till truck drivers get the pay & respect they deserve !

Legal weed and younger people and trucking not gonna mix
 
No excuse for the guy being drunk causing accident but if you are at the end of a traffic backup they have to start teaching people to turn on their flashers and keep tapping the brake pedal.
Good idea , maybe on new vehicles after holding the brake pedal a minute , brake lites alternate side to side
