I'm an Alberta-based truck driver. I started The Driver Gear because most trucking coverage is written for carriers and shippers — I write for the person behind the wheel. Every news story here answers one question first: what does this mean for your week?
I cover FMCSA rulemakings, diesel prices, strikes, freight markets, and road safety — always with the numbers that matter and zero corporate speak. When I recommend gear, it's the stuff that earns its space in the cab. When you buy through links on this site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you — that's what keeps the news free.
