{"product_id":"abuses-in-trucking-darrell-e-berkheimer-9781480133471","title":"Abuses in Trucking","description":"If many of the inefficiencies in the trucking industry were corrected, we would pay a little less for almost everything we buy - because everything we buy comes at least part of the way by trucks. Shippers and receivers are guilty of causing much of the additional costs when they force drivers and trucks to sit idle while waiting to be loaded or unloaded. And the trucking companies make promises to drivers that they fail to keep, resulting in huge unnecessary expenses in high driver turnover, recruiting and training. The situation is further aggravated by the lack of pragmatic government regulations. This book represents a crusade by an author who spent 13 years driving coast-to-coast for six different trucking companies, after spending three decades as a newspaper writer and editor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darrell E.
