8:57Now PlayingICE recently stopped 500 commercial trucks at a western port of entry. According to federal data, 120 of those drivers did not have lawful status in the United States.
In this interview, trucking industry veteran Shannon Everett joins Will Cain to break down how a 2019 Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) guidance change allowed certain states to issue Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDLs) to asylum applicants with Employment Authorization Documents (EADs).
What changed in 2019?
How does the asylum → EAD → CDL process work?
Is there really a truck driver shortage?
And what does this mean for safety on America’s highways?
The conversation explores trucking industry standards, federal regulations, non-domicile CDLs, labor market incentives, and the broader debate over commercial truck safety in the United States.
