      This was a problem almost 20 years ago when I was in an offshoot of the shipping industry. It’s insane that nothing has been done to stop it.

      It seems like an inspector could absolutely wreck them with even semi consistent random checks. Where’s your license, does everyone in the truck have a current license/insurance, is your log book updated, is your employer up to date on safety. Is someone swapping corporate numbers enough to confuse the government? They can’t put those pieces together? Someone transfers a million worth of assets to their cousin or something and that just wipes the slate clean apparently. Untraceable apparently and the regulators/insurers just rubber stamp it.

      Need more indepth whistleblower laws and rewards. There’s people these guys piss off, I guarantee it, make it a reward for catching unsafe behavior.

    2. Considering the Liberals filibustered the Transport committee for over a month to avoid hearing from victims of under qualified and illegal truckers under the Drivers Inc. model they don’t seem to be in any rush to try and fix the issue (despite saying the opposite in the budget).

      The fact that the filibuster only ended after it was revealed that owners of companies that benefit the most from the Drivers Inc. model are also donors to the Liberal party was… not a good look in the slightest to say the least.
