This week on the podcast we covered some important topics for truck drivers. Safety is at a crucial point in our industry, detention time has been a problem since the 70s, and now that we have cell phones your past can now influence your future. Join us for these important conversations on the Lead Pedal Podcast.

What does it take to build a world-class safety program in today’s trucking industry?
On this episode of the Lead Pedal Podcast, we sit down with Garth Pitzel from Bison Transport to talk about the state of the industry and how leading carriers are actively improving safety culture on and off the road.
In episode of the Lead Pedal Podcast, we talk with Scott Rowland—a former driver who stepped out of the cab and into software development to solve one of trucking’s biggest headaches: unpaid detention time.
Did you know your phone could be the main witness against you after a crash?
In the event of an accident, lawyers and investigators don’t just check the vehicle—they look at cell phone forensics to trace app usage, screen swipes, messages, and social media activity down to the exact second.
In this episode of the Lead Pedal Podcast, we break down why what you post, text, or store on your phone can put your career and fleet at risk—and how to safeguard yourself from a legal standpoint.
