In the first of a new series of "mailbag" podcasts, readers weigh in on deliberations over FMCSA's planned liability insurance minimum hike for motor carriers -- if the current minimum comes into effect, says one Texas-based owner-operator it may be "time for a change" in industries, even after three decades in business. Others sounded off with applause for the FMCSA for seeing the error of their ways with the 2003 reduction in hours flexibility. Not all were sure the issue of sleeper-berth-period

Kevin Rutherford, speaking at the Overdrive/ATBS Partners in Business seminar at the Great American Trucking Show, emphasized the difference between detail-heavy business tactics and what many owner-operators clearly need, defined goals and mission that amount to a clear strategy.

Wilson here shares the story of a carrier he worked with whose consortium dropped the ball on saving data to prove it's doing the job it's supposed to be doing. Namely, random-testing pools of drivers for alcohol at the rate of 10 percent in any given year and for drugs at 50 percent.
