Health, Wealth, and Wellness - Trucker Career Success!

Health, Wealth, and Wellness - Trucker Career Success!  #Health #wealth #wellness #truckdrivers #trucking Health, Wealth, and Wellness are three areas all of us would like to be successful in and capturing those areas can be challenging. Focusing on these areas as a truck driver can be the key to a successful career. Bad habits can drag a person back to complacency, hey we are all human. Does achieving this mean you will be wealthy as a driver? How does your health and wealth connect to your career? Wellness is the secret to a successful career, let’s take a look.  Health We often think that having lots of money is the secret to happiness but ask any wealthy person with health challenges and they will tell you that without your health the money doesn’t matter. The average age of life for truck drivers is 65 years of age. As I get closer to that mark I begin to wonder how much time I have left. A life of driving in a seat for hours at a time, lack of exercise time, smoking, and bad meal opportunities all contribute to a short life span. But you can change all that! Many drivers have changed their habits and working out on the road is becoming common place. Now you can even have a trainer travel with you through technology and making meals on the road are now easier than ever. Take care of your health and you will take the first step to a successful career.  Wealth Wealth is different to everyone, for some it means being a millionaire and to others it means having a few dollars in the bank. Trucking is a great job and many do very well income wise but it can be a hard job with long hours. The wealth is in finding out what you like to do for your career and building on that to have a long successful career. Maybe you start in the driver’s seat and progress to a business owner down the road, maybe even starting your own trucking company. Maybe you will drive for a few years and move into another area of the industry such as safety, dispatch, or operations. Trucking offers the benefit of always being needed allowing you a long career no matter which area you choose. The secret is to have a good foundation in the industry and that is best as a driver as the industry revolves around that area.  Wellness Being healthy with a job you enjoy makes for a happy person. Enjoying what you do travels throughout the rest of your life from family time to job performance and the most important thing attitude. Wellness encompasses a healthy lifestyle and good job performance hopefully bringing you happiness and income for a wonderful life. Keeping balance in these areas will offer you not only a well balanced lifestyle, but successful trucking career. I wish you luck for your career and hope you achieve that balanced lifestyle for your and your family.  About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years.

Trucking with Artificial Intelligence

Trucking with Artificial Intelligence #artificialintelligence #technology #trucking Artificial Intelligence is creeping into every part of our lives including the trucking industry. As drivers and owner operators you may not notice it as much as a technology company or business owner, but it’s there! Right now artificial intelligence is like mixing a fuel additive with your fuel, it’s working but you don’t notice anything physically different. It’s working in the background. Why am I talking about this? Why should you care? You should care because it will become more prominent as we go along and it will at some point not only become noticeable but start integrating with your life.  Where artificial intelligence now in trucking? In transportation much of the technology is operating in the background in areas like telematics, maintenance, driver behaviours, trucks, dispatch, recruiting, and much more. Most drivers have it installed and don’t give it a moments thought but it's telling everyone how you’re driving and what your truck is doing.  In the business world there is a big divide as to whether artificial intelligence is being embraced. I was not a fan of it when it was first introduced and use it minimally in our business but I can see it being used more and more. It is taking over and being introduced in every part of business and areas that you don’t understand it will become instrumental in helping you see issues to work on.  How is it working now? If you look at many warehouse distribution systems they are already working with artificial intelligence. You walk through the aisles and you don’t see any people just machines. Over time processes were moved to machines as they are more precise and predictable. They don’t need a coffee break and don’t need to be paid overtime. One person can watch the action and the technology will tell them everything that’s happening.  How will it help you as a driver? As a driver it will help you drive better based on the road conditions. It will help you choose the best route based on traffic data in the system. It will tell you when your truck requires maintenance or service. It may even be the artificial intelligence that hires you for your next trucking job.  Most people are afraid of artificial intelligence taking over their lives and I was too. I have started to embrace it slowly and use it to enhance my job rather than fight it. Tech companies are investing heavily in artificial intelligence so it isn’t going away. You need to know your job so you can qualify the information you are given and use it to your advantage. Let it help you be a better driver and improve your efficiency. If you are an owner operator it may help you run your business allowing you to free up time or improve driving performance and you know that can lead to money staying directly on your bottom line.  We’ll be talking about artificial intelligence in many of our podcast episodes this month so subscribe so you don’t miss an episode. Start using artificial intelligence to your advantage and for areas that you need some help in now. It’s not going away!  About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years. With 25 years behind the wheel across North America and now covering the industry through Lead Pedal Media he has many insights as to the state of today's trucking industry and offers tips through his podcast on how to have a good career in trucking.

Celebrating the Best in Trucking

I am excited to have a month where we celebrate the best in trucking. Often the news on the trucking industry is negative with crashes on the television, crime in the industry, and owner operators saying they’re not making any money. It can really bring a person down day after day. We do our part to get keep things positive but with such a large industry to the south of us and so many variations of success on the job positivity becomes a challenge.  If you’ve ever worked for a private fleet it is quite a bit different from our for hire carriers. The focus isn’t on trucking and generally they can be a little more choosy when picking employees for their teams. In general they tend to pay a little more and have the backing of a corporation to outfit the fleet so the equipment is better. Their brand is the main focus of the business and is prominent in all the work they do. As someone who has worked for multiple private fleets in the past I can tell you it is the way to go from a driver standpoint.  Lead Pedal Media recently covered the Private Motor Truck Council (PMTC) Annual Conference in Niagara Falls and of all the conferences I attend this is one of the best. The team at PMTC do an amazing job and are great to work with so that is easy from a media standpoint. Their presentations aren’t that much different than other conferences as far as speakers and content, but what really drives the conference are the awards and seeing people celebrated. In talking with many of the attendees often I will hear the Hall of Fame Awards are a favourite for them as well. This month we showcase many of the people who were award winners in the industry from Hall of Fame Drivers to Dispatchers of the Year, and award winning safety personnel. We even celebrate the trucks. Isn’t it nice to see the positive and of course celebrating equipment through the many truck shows this year are one of the best things about Summer.  So listen to the podcast this month to catch all the interviews with people young and old and help us celebrate their amazing achievements. Watch presentations on our YouTube channel and join in the fun. After this month you will see that we have great people in the industry and you will be glad to be a part of it. Talk to you soon.  About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years. With 25 years behind the wheel across North America and now covering the industry through Lead Pedal Media he has many insights as to the state of today's trucking industry and offers tips through his podcast on how to have a good career in trucking.

It’s Show Time-The Benefits of Truck Shows

It’s Show Time-The Benefits of Truck Shows It’s show time, is there a benefit to attending truck shows? Over the last few months I’ve been talking and writing a lot about the camaraderie of the trucking industry or lack of it. The past passion of driving down the open road and the friendships you develop. People helping people at the side of the road or a laugh in the truck stop at the driver’s counter all made trucking a fun place to be. We would talk on the C.B. Radio for hours about life and trucks. Learning the roads and routes that had the best food or the greatest scenery. There were always key truck stops that you could count on to see friends and a friendly face. Along the 401 to the east it was always the Ten Acre, the 730 Truck Stop, or the big Relay before the Quebec border. To the West we had the T/A, the Flying J, or the Husky Truck Stops. Sawyer Michigan, Indiana, and many more all had famous stops that were always busy. Your own fleet would gather at many of these stops and you knew it would be a safe place to hunker down on a cold Winter’s night. Even though trucks are still parking the camaraderie is long gone for the most part. People don’t talk anymore on the radios and the restaurants don’t encourage conversation.  I believe that’s why the truck shows have become such a hit. We need the fellowship, we thrive on it. Remember going down a highway and if you passed another truck regardless of the company you always waved at each other. Musicians like Tony Justice have sung about that brotherhood in songs about the road like “Brothers of the Highway” and others. Drivers are starting their own truck shows to bring that friendship back even if it is only for a couple of days per year. Sure it may be about the trucks but to be honest with you, you can see the same trucks at almost every show, but we keep going. We keep going because of the like-minded friendships. Those from outside of the world of driving have a hard time understanding the draw to the truck shows. “They’re only trucks” is often heard but it’s more than that. It’s the friendly face, the attention to detail, the proudness of the road, and the conversations with friends. Many drivers used to experience this on the open road, in truck stops, and at the yards. It has now moved to the truck shows where we know as drivers we will find the people we like to hang out with. We will find good conversation, a passion for trucks, and a friendly face. I hope to see you at the shows this Summer and look forward to our conversation.  About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years. With 25 years behind the wheel across North America and now covering the industry through Lead Pedal Media he has many insights as to the state of today's trucking industry and offers tips through his podcast on how to have a good career in trucking.

A One Piece at a Time Approach to Fixing Our Industry

A One Piece at a Time Approach to Fixing Our Industry #trucking #truckingindustry #veterantruckers  Our industry is in turmoil in many areas and for years the pandemic seemed to stop people from doing anything about it. Now that we have moved past that time frame and people are out and about events. Conferences are back and people are talking about many issues of training, safety, and professionalism so hopefully these issues will be addressed.  On many of our podcasts this month we talk to veteran truck drivers that still have passion for the industry. Training has come into play and there are even some new associations working in a National level to address issues at a Federal Level.  We talk with an Instructor of the Year that is determined to prepare students for the best experience possible. We find out how he does it. We also talk with a safety group that is changing the way they award safety professionals in the industry. That same safety group is hoping to inspire drivers to do more thorough inspections.  All of these groups are doing their part to address the issues within our industry. Getting the conversation started is one thing, executing for the long term is another. Each group is starting the conversation the way they see fit and hopefully it will merge to other areas and associations so we can work on issues together as many of them overlap. We may have a way to go but we will get there.  About the Author Bruce Outridge is a media entrepreneur and producer of The Lead Pedal Podcast and Lead Pedal Radio. He has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years and spent twenty-five of those years as a driver operating across North America. Today you can find him offering business and career tips behind the microphone on your favourite podcast channel. Learn more about the podcast at www.theleadpedalpodcast.com

Company Culture - The Secret Ingredient in Trucking

Company Culture - The Secret Ingredient in Trucking #culture #trucking #podcast #safety Trucking is one of the most diverse industries in North America. It has changed from the old days of 90% white men to now 60% immigrants from outside of North America. As turmoil around the World continues more people will want to come and live in Canada and we will welcome them. It will change our industry and to ensure we maintain the standards of North America it is going to take all of us to work together and keep safety, respect, and dignity at the forefront.  This month our theme is company culture within the industry and why it’s important for truck drivers and staff to ensure safety and respect are represented. With different nationalities being represented at carriers today a welcoming culture must be present and respected by everyone on the team.  ;After all “culture” means in definition: the ideas, customs, and social behaviour of people or society.  ;The attitudes and characteristic of a particular social group A good company culture has nothing to do with the size of the company or the equipment they operate. It has to do with the people and their values and how they communicate them with their team. Those values will focus how you deal with customers and team members. It becomes the river which flows through all parts of your business. If you are a truck driver looking to work with great companies culture is one thing you should be looking for. A good culture will allow you to feel important and respected hopefully growing in your career. A good company will help you bring your best foot forward, learn new skills, and open up opportunities to grow your career.  Enjoy the many great interviews we have about culture in the trucking industry and good luck in the search for your perfect company.  About the Author Bruce Outridge is a media entrepreneur and producer of The Lead Pedal Podcast and Lead Pedal Radio. He has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years and spent twenty-five of those years as a driver operating across North America. Today you can find him offering business and career tips behind the microphone on your favourite podcast channel. Learn more about the podcast at www.theleadpedalpodcast.com

The Art of Creating a Trucking Business

The Art of Creating a Trucking Business #trucking #business #owneroperators #careers  The Art of Business! We often think of business as numbers and methodical equations that once figured out will give you the secret to success. Plug them in and BOOM you are on the road to riches. We watch someone else create a business in the trucking industry successfully and think all I have to do is that and we are good. Unfortunately that is not how it works and no two businesses are alike. Two training schools can have one successful and another failing. Some owner operators are successful while others are losing their trucks. In business there are a lot of differences behind the scenes that can change the way business works or the advantage one business has over another. Starting a business is not for everyone.  Becoming a business owner is a drive that many people have and strive for in life. For truck drivers the natural progression is to become an owner operator after some time behind the wheel as a company driver. For some they want to use their experience teaching others and would like to open up a school to help people new to the industry have quality education. Others move into insurance or operations, or even take the next step and begin their own trucking company with multiple trucks.  Whatever you want to do with your business can be done but it has to be done with ethics and determination. It won’t be an easy road no matter how many advantages you have. As they say in the movies,”Somethings got to give!” You can follow a path and others that have gone before you but scenarios will come up that are unique only to you.  Business is not easy and certainly not for everyone. It takes a lot of work and a lot of expense to get a business off the ground as the saying goes,” It takes money to make money!” As a business owner you have to have a certain drive and you have to be willing to keep in the fight even when the fight isn’t going that well. Do you have that kind of determination to keep going when the world seems against you?  What type of person best suits getting into business? Everyone is different so only you can answer that question but it will not be an easy road no matter how much of an advantage you have. Most people start businesses for the freedom and prestige of being a business owner. We all think we will be rich but you will quickly find out that it is easy to get yourself into a rut working in the business and basically trading your current job for a job with more issues to deal with. If you are the type of person that likes to turn off at 5:00PM or doesn’t want to deal with issues outside of your job description then you will have problems. If you are determined to succeed and don’t mind getting your hands dirty then business may be suited to you.  I wish you luck in whatever direction you plan to go for your future and realize that business is a big step and not to be taken lightly. Most people jump into a business too soon in trucking and forget that you need to know your primary role before turning something into a business. If you are struggling as a truck driver now, then becoming an owner operator will be no better. I invite you to listen to episodes of The Lead Pedal Podcast during the month of February where we talk about many of these issues. Good luck with your business venture.  About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the trucking industry for over 40 years with 25 of those years behind the seat. Today he is a media entrepreneur for the industry, author of several books on business and careers, and is very involved in the Canadian Trucking Industry.

Let’s Make 2024 the Start of a New Trucking Industry-Skilled Labour

Let’s Make 2024 the Start of a New Trucking Industry-Skilled Labour Trucking crashes are up 71% and it has to change! As we roll into 2024 the trucking industry has a lot of issues facing it. Morale is at it’s lowest mark, we have even more regulations but without enforcement they will never do what they were meant to do and keep bad operators off the street. In fact enforcement of all kinds has to be improved to change the models of business being executed on the street level with Driver Inc and carrier operations. Now this sounds like a lot and it is, we have many problems! When veteran drivers and carriers alike are asking for more enforcement for their own safety then we have a problem.  On the upside we also have solutions and experience on what it takes to make the industry better. All of those issues noted above can all be fixed through enforcement, training, and education. One area will tie this altogether and that’s the skilled trades. A system needs to implemented and verified so that a new driver can enter into training in the industry, build their skills and be rewarded for that work with certifications and pay that is appropriate. Once they reach certain levels with in that program they can then move onto further growth opportunities such as owning a truck or even a company.  Currently a driver can get a licence, go to the local dealer and buy a truck. He will then work for the first carrier that will take them without a thought about safety, maintenance, or operations. In the case of the Driver Inc model they don’t even buy a truck, they just incorporate themselves and operate illegally.  In the Skilled Trades Model the skills of inspection and maintenance would be required to become an owner operator. A business course would be an additional benefit to a program. Complete Finishing Programs and more will go along way to building the type of drivers we need on the roads today.  You may be asking why we didn’t need these programs in the past? In the past the trucking industry was made up of farm kids and others that had learned off a family member in the business or worked farm machinery at a very young age. Kids were driving trucks and tractors on the farm at the age of 12. Those like myself learned through stepping stones on the job like lumping furniture, then getting a straight truck licence, and then tractor trailer, and then owner operator. As I stepped through those zones I found mentors along the way that helped train and shape the driver I became.  As we have many people filling the seats through immigration and other types of programs we need to have a formal way for them to become the professional drivers we need on the road. People immigrating from outside of North America need to understand the trucking industry here even if they have prior driving experience. Just because you can drive doesn’t make you a professional driver.  I believe we have all the parts to put a program like this in place. We have enough experienced drivers that could be utilized in the training and finishing parts of the program and we have associations that can help create a roadmap for the program. Right now I see each association trying to do their own thing. We somehow need to get everyone working together to create a system that will work. Let’s make 2024 the time for change!  About the Show LISTEN TO THE PODCAST- The show is available at www.theleadpedalpodcast.com  , ITunes, Stitcher, Spotify, Tunein, iHeartradio, SoundCloud, and other popular podcast platforms.

Old School Experience With New Ways of Making Money in Trucking

Old School Experience With New Ways of Making Money in Trucking What’s considered “Old School”, is it someone with more experience than another person? Is it someone that is just older than another person? “Old School” to me is an era especially in the trucking industry of not just experience, certainly nothing to do with age, but a time of fun and common sense. To most people they think of running from the law and fudging those log books to get in an extra mile are old school and those things happened, but maybe not for the reasons that you think. We weren’t just cowboys gone crazy on the roads but hard working drivers trying to make money in one of the toughest industries around. To be part of the “Old School” club you had to have common sense, determination, and a good work ethic. You had to think for yourself and there was a perception that truckers were heroes of the road. We talk with some “Old School” Drivers to start out the month on the podcast talking about how they built successful careers behind the wheel and now out of the seat and what drivers need to know. Look for the episodes with Stephane Gauthier and Chuck Snow. We turn the clock ahead to new drivers in the middle of the month and how they are making money in today’s world of trucking. We talk with Mike Helms about how he has built his company from 12 trucks to 20 and is showing other young people how to do it as well? We also find out how you can make money for driving down the road with Jeff Bermant of Cocoon My Data with new technology. Later in the month we get back to driver professionalism as we take a look at award winning drivers and find out what it takes to build top of the line equipment for those owner operators that want nothing but the best. We find out how drivers are progressing in their careers and where they can go after they have time on the road. To sum it up this month we show you “Old School Pride” with new ways of making money. We have some great conversations this month so subscribe to the podcast so you don’t miss an episode. You can also engage with us on Lead Pedal Radio during our live shows like Truck Talk, the All Request Lunch, and the Tropical Daze Shows.

The Lead Pedal Podcast Focuses on Truck Driver Professionalism

The Lead Pedal Podcast Focuses on Truck Driver Professionalism One of the reasons we started The Lead Pedal Podcast was to promote the trucking industry in a positive light. As former truck drivers ourselves we know the hard work and dedication it takes to be good at this job and keep the wheels turning successfully. Professional drivers are much more than just truck drivers getting the load from one destination to another, in fact talk to many of them and that’s the easy part. It’s what they do above and beyond the job description that makes them true professional drivers. For instance in episode 634 we talked about a number of professional women drivers that have won awards this year. Women are becoming a prominent force in the industry as technology makes the trucks more comfortable and easier to handle. The trucking industry is one of the few industries that the the pay is equal to what the men get as fleets pay everyone the same across the board. As carriers aim to attract more people into the industry they are getting creative with trip planning allowing for shorter runs and flexible start times. These are all issues attractive to female truck drivers in our industry. We talked with Highway Angel Travis Smallwood about how he saved someone from a bad accident that he came across on his travels. The Highway Angel Award is awarded to truck drivers that have stepped up to help someone in a deadly situation. We talked with Travis about his award in episode 635. We talked with truck driver Gio of Rosedale Transport this month about professionalism on the road and what makes a good professional truck driver. Have a listen to this impressive truck driver and what he says are important to any driver. Have you ever wondered what type of professionalism it takes to transport some of the biggest musical acts in the country on their concert tours? We find out in episode 629 when we talk with the team at Upstaging about what type of truck driver is best suited to that type of work and some of the stories on being part of the biggest tours in the business. Truck driver professionalism can offer a person opportunities and a career with some of the best carriers in the business. Being a professional driver is more than just getting the truck and load down the road. It is customer service, being on time, and much more. Listen to the interviews and find out why this job is not for the faint of heart. About the Author Bruce Outridge is the host and producer of The Lead Pedal Podcast for Truck Drivers.

What's New on the Podcast in June 2019?

What's New on the Podcast in June 2019? We have a ton of stuff new for June and it’s going to be an exciting month. You will not believe the stuff going on from getting through road check which happens June 4th through to improving your health and becoming a better driver. We start off with some tips coming from an ex MTO inspection officer and Andy Malion to get you through Road Check. We’ve got a new sponsor on with us with Rims Transport which you will hear a lot more about. They haul steel and are located in various locations around Ontario and Quebec but the main terminal is in Hamilton Ontario. They're looking for owner operators so if you are into hauling steel and you're an owner operator and not afraid to cross the border, then you certainly want to be looking at a company like Rims Transport. You will hear more about them as the month goes on. Thank you to Rims Transport for coming on board. Guests This Month We have some exciting guests on the show this month. I believe that truck drivers are not just lazy truck drivers but some very talented and dedicated people and it's amazing to see what they can do. I have to tell you we got we got some great guests starting with the next show. We start with Chris Hensel, he played Jeb Duke on the Dukes of Hazzard television show. You probably remember the Dukes of Hazzard was one of the top shows on the networks in the 70’s and 80s. He’s now creating a new movie for the trucking industry and he's looking for trucking companies to be a part of the movie. We're going to be talking with Kelly Mack McCoy from San Antonio, Texas, He’s a truck driver turned author and wrote a book called Rough Way to the Highway. It’s a fictional book about a truck driver who gets into all kinds of issues on the road. We talked to him about his book and how he became an author. Do not think that people in the trucking industry don't have passion or cannot do anything more than just jam gears my friends. Kelly connected me on to another author named Robert Stevens Jr. Robert’s also an author / truck driver and you might think that this is kind of crazy having these two authors on The Lead Pedal Podcast. Robert Stevens Jr. is a truck driver for 16 years, but you may know his name from professional football because he was in the NFL European league and also some of the teams in the NFL. He created a line of sportswear for football players, he's working on his third novel and does all of that while he's driving a truck so don't tell me that you don't have time or you don't have the you energy to get stuff done. You’ve got to listen to this guy, he’s six foot eight, 425 pounds, and we had so much fun talking with him about what's going in his life. Health We’re still improving our health and we've been doing the Healthy Trucker health challenges. It ends at the end of June and we're still following Andrea Morley’s tips and mini health challenges each week. If you're not part of the health challenge but you still want to get fit you can go to The Lead Pedal Podcast website and click on health and fitness category. I've been making a video every week and the videos are on our website page. We are going to be talking to a guy named Chris Nerat. Chris is a fitness enthusiast and professional trainer working for Caterpillar. The cool thing about his exercise program is he does it in the cab of a truck so you can actually see how they're done and he's got a whole program we're going to talk to him about to be more fit on the road. Look for that in Episode Number 332 which is going to be coming up mid June. By the way we have somebody who's taken fitness to the next level. Kimberly Biback is a lady who works for Sharp Transportation here in Ontario and is taking exercising to a whole new level. She's in great shape and very strong as she is training for the Baycrest Sealfit Challenge. She’s doing a challenge training like the Navy Seals and the challenges she is working on is out of this world. We’re going to be talking to Kimberly about what she's doing for training and we met up with her in her gym with her coach. She’s doing some amazing things so keep going Kimberly, we're behind you, That’s in mid June on episode 333. We continue with health, this time on sleep apnea. Sleep apnea has been a big issue in the trucking industry and is something a lot of truck drivers get caught into if overweight. We talk to Rob Pierce who is with a sleep apnea clinic here in Ontario. We talked to him about what people should be looking for and how you can start checking to see if you have those symptoms. We find out what you should do about testing and some of the products available and how to determine which one is right for you. We will be talking to Rob more towards the end of the month as we've got so much content going on. I've been doing interviews like crazy. We talk with David Benjatschek at the end of June. David is a professional speaker and photographer in the trucking industry. We had a fun interview and we're going to call this one, trains, planes, and automobiles because everything went by us as we were by the airport. We a had a garbage truck almost run me over. David and I talk about how to be a better driver so make sure that you join us for the last episode in June which is Episode 335 with David. So that's what we’ve got coming up in the month of June. These are all amazing interviews and you are going to laugh all the way through June. Thanks for listening, Bruce

The first thing is just to let you know, if you it seemed like we were having some trouble in April with our website, that was true, we had some certificate issues, that should be all straightened out now. The second thing is that there's been a change with iTunes. iTunes has done a change in their system and some of the episodes are taking longer to download into iTunes system than normal. If you're experiencing that, please know that it's not anything we can do but hopefully it will be fixed soon. There was a change done at the end of March and it's affected some of the shows. They are showing up there just a bit slower. If you want to make sure that you're getting the current episode then going to our website is the place to go. Anyway that's just some issues we were having in the month of April. Hopefully they're cleaned up for the most part and everything's back on track. We’ve got an exciting month ahead.

We also have a change with the Marmora Truck Show which was the one happening in Marmora Ontario. That show has been delayed until at least next year. You've probably heard ads come out about that, but the show is cancelled for 2019 so we can take that one off the list for now.

Organizing The Trucking Industry

Organizing The Trucking Industry The trucking industry has been in a state of turmoil for a number of years and many groups are beginning to start a very impressive focus of trying to organize the trucking industry as a whole. As one of the largest industries in North America that would be a daunting task for anyone but we have been seeing an up rise over the last few months and years from the general population against Government and truckers are starting to take action. In the March episodes of the podcast we talk with a couple of these organizers as to their plans to accomplish organizing the Nation and why this is an important issue. Last month we saw Glen Carritt organize and lead a convoy from Alberta to Ottawa to protest several issues from pipelines to immigration. This month we talk with Canadian Federation of Transport and the Canadian Truckers Association about issues facing truck drivers in Canada. Other episodes of the podcast include a driver discussion with Joseph Graham better known as the Hillbilly Express, seat covers for your rig, stepping into becoming an owner operator, and a recap of trucking events in March. Joe Teixiera of Rosedale Transport has been awarded Instructor of the Year and we talk to him briefly about his 35 year career. Our musician profile for March is the incredibly talented Thomas Wade who lost his voice and revived it to come back on top of a music career that is now 50 years long. Learn about his story on our profile spot and his website at www.thomaswade.com . Don’t forget to check out our Featured Trucks every week and more. Subscribe so you don’t miss an episode!

You now need 10 hours of training to drive a commercial vehicle and that requirement was just implemented in 2017. The certified courses at Ontario Truck Driving School have always exceeded those requirements with their 200 hour certified training courses.

Fuel Tax is Important for Every Owner Operator

Fuel Tax is important for every owner operator You may be thinking income tax at this time of year as we move into the deadline for tax seasons, but that isn’t what Fleet-Tax Services does. The name is deceiving to many but it actually stands for fuel tax. Every trucking company and driver on the road pays fuel tax and that fuel tax needs to be recorded and filed to the appropriate authorities much like income tax. The big companies have a department that handles that, but even if you are an independent owner operator you need to have fuel tax completed. Where do you do that? Fleet-Tax Services can be found at www.fleettaxservices.com

The Featured Truck of the Week is this cool 1981 Kenworth. I don't know who owns it but took the pictures at the Fergus Truck Show that is no longer active.  The goal of the featured truck is to showcase the many cool rides out there on the road and to show off the true “Pride in your ride.” That was the backbone of the industry in earlier times. No matter what you haul or where you go you can have pride in your equipment. All you need to have is a professional mindset. This week’s Featured truck is sponsored by RS2000 Tax Consultants at www.rs2000tax.com

Running By The mile Book   Owner Operators are the life blood of the transportation industry. Large and small companies are looking for skilled Owner Operators for their fleets and the opportunities are endless. Having the opportunity and being successful are too entirely different things however, as there are many stories of Owner Operators or small business owners being burned at the stakes from not understanding the world of business. I make it easy in this book called Running by the Mile, he breaks down the information into ten easy to follow steps that can be followed in order helping you make decisions important to the foundation of your business. As a leader in the industry, business and leadership consultant I not only have the experience of business, but have been in the seat myself. My entrepreneurial spirit has lead me into many businesses and the Corporation that I lead to this day.

Educational manuals like this make our people better at what they do. This manual is truly a positive asset to the trucking industry.” Kim Richardson President, Transrep Inc _____________________________________________________________________________________ “I have read and perused your book ‘Running by the mile’.

Driven to Drive Book by Bruce Outridge

    Driven to Drive Book I have been a part of the transportation industry for over 30 years and I am still very involved with the people in the industry and development for new drivers. My first book titled Running By The Mile focuses on the business end of operating a truck and becoming your own boss. That in itself makes the book somewhat intimidating to those that want to just be a driver and that is where the foundation for my second book Driven to Drive came from. If there is one thing that gave me a long satisfying career in transportation it has been leadership and owning my career. I have vowed to control it the best I could by being involved and working hard. That work ethic has taken me to great heights in my career that many other drivers have only wished for. I have always made good money in the industry, driven great equipment, and met many awesome people. Today I do my best to pass on the same techniques and work ethic that made me a respected professional driver to help you in your career. To make it more fun I have interwoven many different stories that have happened to me during my career in somewhat of a chronological order so that you can see not only how my career progressed, but help you realize that many opportunities are there for you and you may not notice them. If you have ever wanted to have a successful career as a professional driver then this book is for you? This is the information they will not teach you in truck driving schools, it can only be learned on the road, until now! Learn how to choose a good company, what to look out for when your employer is getting into trouble and protect yourself against companies that are going bankrupt. You can’t learn these things in school! Take charge of your career today, there is no reason you can’t have a successful career like I have. I just don’t want you to take 25 years in the seat to find out how. Get your copy today! Check out what other people have to say about the book Driven to Drive “Driven to Drive is a ‘must read’ guide for new professional drivers aiming to achieve a successful career in the transportation industry. Bruce is eminently qualified to deal with practical scenarios faced by new drivers in their zeal to climb the ladder of success. Bruce Outridge’s insight into effective time and financial management, culture of safety, good maintenance of big rigs and a message to keep exploring opportunities to move forward in the transportation career should be considered seriously. Like all his previous offerings, Bruce once again has tried to instill pride for each and everyone working in the transportation industry for which he needs to be commended. I strongly recommend this book to all new and experienced transportation professionals as it gives them a rare opportunity to peek into the career path navigated by Bruce himself.” – Manan Gupta, Road Today Media Group _____________________________________________________________________________________ “Good reading and easy to follow, I enjoyed it very much especially when talking about your own experiences and it feeling like a story.  Many readers will find this book enjoyable and easy to identify good direction in pursuing perfection.” David Brown Carrier’s Coach Solutions _____________________________________________________________________________________ “Wonderful read, point well made “ownership of your position” whatever that may be at the time in a person’s life in whatever it is they are doing.” Jim Campbell Ontario Truck Driving School _____________________________________________________________________________________ “I enjoyed reading this.I liked how you started with the dream job and then went to a tougher company. Finishing the chapter off with showing new drivers a simple way of protecting their pay check was great.” Shawn Jameson Davy Truck Sales _____________________________________________________________________________________ “Loved It! Really enjoyed the chapter, very interesting. Kept my interest throughout, easy read. Favourite parts were you running out of gas, moving the lady whose husband had a gun, and being kidnapped by your co-workers. And I laughed out loud at the name of you and Andre’s first company and the reason for it…priceless!” Matt Richardson KRTS Inc. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As a young driver I didn’t see many of theses things coming at me and until you decide to protect yourself  and create a set of rules you can live by will you start having a great career as a professional driver. I was told not to get into the industry over 30 years ago, thankful I didn’t listen to that person. I always say you should listen to the people that will help you where you want to go, not the ones that don’t have a clue. I don’t just tell you how to do it, but I give you real life situations that you relate to and will see in the real world of transportation. Training is normally done on text book scenarios in the industry, but I believe in telling it the way it will happen to many of us.. This is the perfect guide for someone looking at the industry or someone who would like ideas on how to make things better.

ELDs-Friend or Foe?

ELDs-Friend or Foe? Well we’ve come to that time of year, The Holiday Season. This year the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is giving the trucking industry a Christmas present with the implementation of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs). December 18, 2017 is the date of implementation for phase two of the program which makes it mandatory for all carriers operating in the United States to have ELDs installed and operational. You can view the implementation timeline here https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/hours-service/elds/implementation-timeline Are ELD’S Friend or Foe? There has been much discussion over ELDs whether they are good or bad and opinions change with every person I talk to on the subject. Many owner operators say they are bad, many drivers think they are good, and many just don’t understand. Some are afraid of the technology while others are afraid of losing money due to delays. So are ELDs friend or foe? Here is why ELD’s might be a friend? First realize that the ELD rule will be going ahead as planned and that won’t change. From all reports from those now using them, they like them for the most part. Many of the large carriers have already been using them for years and it makes the driver’s job easier. The drivers don’t have to fill in paperwork or calculate hours and so it makes their workload easier. With basic push button style operation much like a smart phone ELDs are fairly simple to use once some training has been completed. ELDs track movement by the minute allowing real time tracking saving drivers time when doing small tasks like checking loads, fueling, and other activities that don’t require fifteen minutes of time. Those small increments of time can add up throughout a day possibly allowing you more time for more important activities. One of the big benefits is the transparency of hours so that everyone from safety to dispatch to the driver know exactly how many hours are available for work and hopefully will be able to plan loads better. Reports from industry friends show that in some cases ELD information has helped save drivers from fraudulent charges due to the accuracy of the information available through the systems. Managers and Safety Personnel can now get accurate information when working with drivers allowing them to focus on issues of importance and streamline safety programs and training. So with all of these benefits to using ELDs what are the downsides? Here is why ELDs might be foe? The downsides of ELDs will depend greatly on who you talk to and the reasons behind it. First those that have been fudging their logbooks are the first set to argue the implementation. Of course that is the whole reason for the implementation by the FMCSA. The second area that has people scared is the use of technology in general. With an older generation in the transportation industry many are still afraid of basic technology and can get frustrated easily with the devices. Once you can overcome this issue many will come on board. The third issue is the cost of installation for carriers and owner operators. With tight profit margins in the industry finding funds for installation and equipment may be an issue for some. Having this mandated is adding extra pressure to those already lagging behind in profits. So how do you handle all of the changes with ELDs? The mandate is being implemented so if you were hoping for some sort of magic wand taking it away that won’t be happening. So how do you deal with the change? If you are a driver not comfortable with technology then instead of fighting it, embrace it and try to use it as much as possible. The more you use it the more comfortable you will be with it, ask for additional training if you need to. Do proper trip planning and that means planning out your stops for fuel, rest, and deliveries. There will be delays out of your control but if you do your part to trip plan properly you will go a long way to minimizing those delays. The regulations haven’t changed so you know the rules, it’s the technology. Electronic Logging Devices will make the paperwork side of a driver’s job easier so that is a good thing. ELDs will improve accuracy showing your where delays are on the road allowing you to trip plan better or to get paid for customer delays and that’s a good thing. ELDs may also make Dispatch and other departments realize how much time they may be wasting allowing them to improve their efficiency as everyone will be able to see the hours of service, and that’s a good thing. My general feeling is that it will help the industry over time. On another note I would like to take this time to wish you and your family all the best for the Holiday Season. May it be a wonderful time for you and your family. Happy Holidays. About the Author Bruce Outridge is an artist, author, consultant, and speaker.

Are You Exhausted by Bruce Outridge

It was his third trip this week and he was starting to feel the tiredness setting in. He was used to a couple of trips a week, but this was only Wednesday and he was on the third short trip. Having steady work was great and the paycheque would certainly benefit from the healthy miles but his body was feeling the pace. So what was new about this week that hadn’t happened in the past? Ted had been running hard and was used to the physical nature of the loads he hauled. Tarping, chains, and other job requirements were a way of life for Ted. What he was having trouble with was the emotional side. Personal issues like family and finances were causing Ted some troubled nights and his sleep wasn’t as solid as it should have been. It is one thing to lie down for six hours but how many of those are solid sleep hours. As a result Ted was not getting quality sleep and was feeling exhausted. While driving to the border from his last switch he was starting to fall asleep. He had turned the trip and just had to get to other side of the border before shutting down for the night. He had caught himself drowsing off a couple times on his own but on this particular night he had been caught by someone else, the Police. After the Police officer reviewed his logbook with a fine tooth comb he was released and told to get more rest if he was feeling sleepy. On this trip he managed to get other side of the border and shut down. This happens to many drivers and it comes down to your internal clock and sleep management. As professional drivers the physical part of the job usually is something we are comfortable with and can do without too much thought. We do it everyday and for the most part do it well. This is a comfort level in our positions so we think we can work for long hours without rest. Where we get caught is in the mental part of our brains that add another level above that pressure. Think about the last time that you were driving down the road with a load and started to think about family back home, the work you didn’t get done on the weekend, the bills that need to be paid, and other important items in your life. Your work level goes onto autopilot and you begin to focus on the extra pressure. You have now added extra pressure increasing your level of exhaustion. Most of us don’t acknowledge that this has happened until we begin to feel tired and don’t understand why. So when thinking about your level of exposure of fatigue think about your job as one level and each additional level weighs more on an individual creating a higher exhaustion level. If possible deal with issues so you’re not dragging them around with you on the road. Your lively hood depends on it.

Featured Truck of the Week

Feature Truck of the Week I thought I would start a new feature every week where I showcase a cool truck. I don't know who owns this truck but it driver runs for West Coast Transport. This truck was at the Trucking For a Cure Event in Woodstock, Ontario and was of the coolest and most fitting rides at the convoy due to outstanding paint job. way to go West Coast. Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month it seemed like a good choice. About the Feature Host Bruce Outridge is a bonafide chrome junkie and not only drove trucks such as this but loves to see them to this day.

Women Have What It Takes To Be In Trucking

Women have what it takes to be in trucking. This was the message delivered at a recent Smart Trucker Seminar in Grimsby Ontario in September. The seminar focused on careers for women in the industry and how they can have satisfying careers in a male dominated industry. The seminar kicked off with panel discussion including Shelley Uvanile-Hesch who has been driving for 27 years, Janet Hewitt who works as a driving instructor and former driver with over 12 years of experience, and Vickie deVos owner of Fleet-Tax Services who has been working in the industry with owner operators and trucking companies for decades. The focus of this discussion was on what will attract women to the industry and the different career options available. An important part of the panel discussion was the fact that trucking is one of the few industries that provides equal pay for both men and women. After a great meal and some sponsor announcements we moved on to the main attraction of the night and the keynote presentation with Shelley Uvanile-Hesch. Shelley is the CEO of the Women’s Trucking Federation of Canada (WTFC) which is an organization helping women have successful careers in the transportation industry. Shelley gave an overview of her career of 27 years throughout the presentation along with tips on how to have a successful driving career and information on how to get started to be successful in the industry. You can learn more about the WTFC at www.womenstruckingfederationofcanada.net The company offers mentoring for women in the industry with top professionals and other drivers. After a short break Manan Gupta of Road Today Media Group offered a presentation on road safety and specifically distracted driving. Manan is a member of many safety groups and has won awards due to his dedication to safety in the industry. The evening was rounded out with raffle draws and closing remarks. What I found interesting as a moderator of the event is that women are ready to work in the industry. It was mentioned many times over the evening that we need to introduce the industry to girls in high schools or even earlier so they understand the career options available. As we spoke with people in the room from safety personnel, recruiting, driving, administration, and some students it was apparent that women can do the job. The other message that seemed to run through the evening behind the scenes is that women don’t want to be treated any different than their male counterparts. They want the same duties and opportunities available and given the chance they will succeed. A few times it was mentioned that women may have a hard time working in roles such as flatbed transportation where strength may become an issue. Each time it was mentioned someone was able to come up with an exception and offer an example of another woman driver that works in that role exceptionally well. My personal take on women in the industry is that they do have what it takes to get the job done. In my days as a driver I worked with many women that in my opinion out drove the men, were dedicated to their job, and could handle any load given to them. I have female friends that are owner operators, drivers, and work in many careers within the industry in other roles and all do a great job. Women can do the jobs in trucking, we just need to get them thinking that it is a viable career opportunity. About the Author Bruce Outridge has been in the transportation industry for over 30 years.
