#1 Truck Show
Truck parking starts the conversation — but it definitely doesn’t end there.

On this episode of **The Friday Fuel Podcast**, Doc, Ray, and Wideglide get into a HEATED discussion about two issues affecting trucking: the shortage of safe truck parking and concerns about illegal or questionable truck-driving schools putting inadequately trained drivers on the road.

Drivers are already fighting packed truck stops, limited legal parking, Hours of Service restrictions, rising operating costs, and few safe options when their clocks run out. So where exactly are truckers supposed to park?

Then the conversation shifts to driver training.

What happens when a CDL becomes more about getting someone through the door than making sure they’re actually prepared to operate an 80,000-pound commercial vehicle? What responsibility belongs to the schools, carriers, regulators — and the drivers themselves?

Doc, Ray, and Wideglide don’t agree on everything, and this conversation gets heated fast.

**DRIVERRRRR… WHAT’S YOUR TAKE?**

Is truck parking worse today than it was five or ten years ago?

And are enough new CDL drivers receiving the training they actually need before being sent onto America’s highways?
