State of Freight Insights: New English Language Requirement for Truckers Initiates Early Effects

Reported about 8 hours ago

The recent State of Freight webinar highlighted a potential disruption in supply chains due to the renewed enforcement of the English Language Proficiency requirement for truck drivers. With the Outbound Tender Rejection Index spiking, experts suggest this may signal tightening capacity as carriers may opt to remove drivers failing ELP checks to avoid Out of Service violations, which could impact their records and insurance rates. Discussions also covered the state of trade relations, ocean shipments from Southeast Asia, predictions for the LTL market, and challenges facing electric vehicle adoption due to changing legislation.
