Daniel S Bridger's Trucking Blog

Having been a professional truck driver and trainer for more than 36 years (now retired), I find that you never, ever know it all. There are always new things to learn. My primary goal with this blog is to help other drivers (especially newer ones) with entertaining reading, pertinent information and tips to enable them to work happier and more safely. Guest posts, contributors and feed-back are always welcome and appreciated! And, I write my own posts and do not use AI!

My History

(Retired as of January, 2018) Having spent 36 years (23 as a trainer) driving tractor-trailer combinations and being involved with 3rd party logistics, I have gained valuable experience in such areas as safety, driver recruitment, hiring, DOT file set-up and maintenance, dispatching, on board computer training and have assisted at many 3PL start-up locations. Published author as of 2020.
Having been both an employer and an employee, I can objectively see both sides of issues pertaining to management-employee relations. I maintain an excellent relationship with my supervisors, as well as drivers. Have owned and operated three successful businesses. Experienced in the fundamentals of bookkeeping, accounting principles and income tax preparation. Extensive, specific experience in the interview and hiring process of drivers, warehouse workers, driver helpers, and administrative assistants. Specialties include customer relations, driving, DOT regulations, hiring, leadership, logistics, training, transportation, dispatching, safety.
