In this episode of Trucking with OOIDA, hosts Ashley Blackford and Scott Thompson dive into the tech and transportation stories that matter most to truckers.

First up, Artificial Intelligence. It’s not just coming, it’s already here. Jacky Zhao from Truckstop.com joins us to break down how AI is currently being used in trucking, from freight matching to predictive maintenance, and how it could reshape the industry in the years ahead.

Then, we switch gears to infrastructure. Ed Hassinger, Director of the Missouri Department of Transportation, shares updates on the massive Interstate 70 widening project — a game-changing development for truckers crossing the Show-Me State.

We’ll cover:

• Real-world AI applications in trucking right now

• Opportunities and risks AI presents for drivers and carriers

• How technology might change freight markets in the next decade

• The scope and timeline of Missouri’s I-70 expansion

• What drivers can expect during the construction phase

Since 1973, the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) has been the voice of America’s truckers — and Trucking with OOIDA continues that tradition, putting the issues that matter to you front and center.
