FMCSA article regarding authority.
Hey Everyone, What are your thoughts on the article published by the FMCSA on Friday regarding the buying or leasing of mature authority? I’ve always been curious about how that process actually works, and it’s also been a concern of mine that someone could potentially use an authority without the owner’s knowledge. I’d be interested in hearing everyone’s perspective on this.

@Steven Tittle Apparently not everyone paying attention, just this morning I have someone offering me a leasing opportunity for an aged MC, due to mines on the newer side. This practice should abolish sooner than later, people will do anything to make money these days. I prefer following the books and not make anything, than going any unethical route.

@Sydnie Theisen this type of practice does make it harder for those of us doing things the right way.
Freight Skool Activity
Since our goal is to create an Active Community of Professionals that help each other Educate and Inform about important topics regarding Freight Transportation Logistics it is time once again to purge our membership. We will be eliminating memberships of those that don’t show activity in the group. It’s better to have a small group of members who are active and share value or get value from Freight Skool than have a bunch of members who only enter to see what they can get. I want to thank everyone who have become members of Freight Skool and continue to participate in our community. If you have not been on in a while this email is a nudge to get you back in. On Tuesday March 31 all accounts with no activity over the last 30 days will be purged (churned) from the group. So get on and get active. We hope to see you post or comment in the near future. Thank you everyone for making the Freight Skool community the #1 Freight Logistics community on the Skool Platform!

Gotcha.
Insurance premium concerns.
Hello, I wanted to inquire if it would be possible to reduce my insurance coverage or adjust the policy temporarily while I wait on aging my authority. At this time, I am not running many miles or securing loads consistently, and the current insurance cost is creating a significant overhead expense. My goal is to remain compliant while also managing expenses until I am able to secure more consistent work. If there are any options available to lower the premium, reduce mileage, or adjust coverage during this period, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance. Any insight or recommendations you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Best regards,Tracon

Good morning Steven, My current policy is written for interstate operations; however, at the moment I am only operating intrastate. My coverage currently includes $1M general liability, $100,000 cargo coverage, and a 200-500 mileage. As I am considering reducing some aspects of the policy, I want to ensure that any adjustments will not interfere with maintaining compliance with FMCSA requirements. I would appreciate any guidance you may have regarding the best way to adjust the policy while remaining fully compliant. Thank you for your time and assistance.

New Cargo Van Owner operator
Hello everyone, I hope you all are having a great day so far. I truly appreciate the opportunity to connect, network, and learn more about navigating the logistics industry. I am a new owner-operator with a cargo van based in Braselton, GA. My authority has been active for a little over 30 days, and I am fully FMCSA compliant. At the moment, I’m working to gain traction and secure consistent loads, so any advice, guidance, or opportunities would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Steven, for welcoming me into such a wonderful community. I look forward to learning from everyone here.

@Bill Robinson, Thank you for the recommendation, I truly appreciate the guidance. As a new carrier, I understand building credibility and strong broker relationships is essential, especially with the current fraud concerns in the industry. I will definitely focus on connecting with reputable brokers locally in GA and within this community to build long-term partnerships. I’m grateful for the support and look forward to growing and learning from everyone here.
