I was informed by one broker that some shippers who do business with the ports are also requiring drivers to have the TWIC. I don't think that many currently require the card. Unless they ship to the ports I don't think it is an issue.

 

Talked to a driver today who had to pass on 6 loads from our broker because he didn't have the card. Out of 160 of us, so far I'm the only one who has completed the process. West coast ports will be requiring it as of Feb.

Just like hazmat, I may not agree with it, but if it gets me more loads......baaaa baaaa baaaaa

Home for a day and a half, just dropped off a trainee, and now 2-3 weeks out alone.....just me and the dog!

10 states in two weeks. Big roads, small roads, just keep on rolling......it's all good.
