Last week there was a tragic ending to a truck-full of the famous candy, M&Ms. 17 tons of M&Ms were deemed unsalvageable and had to be tossed after a big rig tipped last Friday. The driver hit a side barrier which caused the truck to roll into a ditch. Thankfully the driver is okay and was only sent to the hospital for minor injuries.
Unfortunately, we will never see those M&Ms again…

ELD Update
The new ELD mandate is officially live. You must use an Electronic Logging Device when operating a semi-truck. There will be no “grace” period for rigs without an ELD. On top of that, the AOBRD “grandfather” rule no longer applies so, if you haven’t already, make sure you rig your truck with an ELD ASAP!
