Trucking leaders applaud Trump executive order requiring truckers speak English | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

Apr 30, 2025

On Episode 832 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is sharing the trucking industry’s reaction to Trump’s executive order requiring truck drivers to speak and understand English. The order rescinds a 2016 FMCSA memo that effectively eliminated roadside enforcement of English proficiency.

Adil Ashiq is a former U.S. Merchant Marine captain-turned-supply chain and maritime industry nerd. We’ll find out how to navigate tumultuous trade waters. We’ll look at maritime employment and the Jones Act.

CloneOps’ David Bell talks about who the winners and losers will be in AI lead communication for logistics service providers.

Plus, some auto tariffs hit reverse; rate the strap work; 100 truckers vs 1 gorilla, and more.
