Comment on National Distracted Driving Summit Set for September by Brad Hollister, Director of Business Development

I am very mixed on this issue. While I hate further government regulation in any industry, especially Freight / Trucking, I certainly witness drivers talking on cell phones on a daily basis.

I am very courteous to drivers, letting them merge lanes on the highway, etc., but do need to tell them to get off the phone while hauling freight loads.

So drivers… govern yourselves as the professionals you are. If you can do this in this arena and others, you may curb the need for additional governmental intervention in the future.

Comment on House Introduces Bill to Allow C-TPAT Certification for Non-Asset 3PL’s by Peter

Peter — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 01:41:07 +0000

Security of the supply chain should involve all members of the supply chain. Any site left under the radar offers a weakness to the entire chain irrespective of the security strengths of some of the participants.
The greatest flaw in C-TPAT however is that the first level relies on a self declaration of the security compliance to the C-TPAT criteria. A bit like “no officer i was not speeding”.

I applaud any supply chain security initiative that is risk based, addresses the security issues applicable to the site/organisation and applies a confirmation process that the security integrity of those organisations that choose to participate. Unfortunately C-TPAT falls short on all counts.

Legislate all they like but until security is validated throughout the entire supply chain, from source (including international) to user, we must assume that there is an overall security weakness in the supply chain. How else do the supply chain users safeguard against theft, counterfeit introductions, smuggling and other illegal concerns to both public and private enterprise.

Comment on Billionaire Proposes Natural Gas Big Rigs to Cut Foreign Oil Dependancy by Brad Hollister, Director of Business Development

T. Boone Pickens has been written off by the mainstream. Like him or not, I do believe he’s on to something. Natural gas as a fuel is the key to transportation going forward.

I have driven a natural gas vehicle. Makes no difference to me… we just need filling stations.
