Deadly "Chameleon" Carriers Exposed, ODFL’s 2026 Recovery, & Sysco’s $52M Verdict | The Daily

New financial data indicates the freight market may finally be flipping as shippers pay significantly more to move the same volume of goods. This shift in pricing power is creating a painful squeeze for brokers like RXO, who saw their margins crushed to just 1.2% this quarter. The pressure is also forcing legitimate capacity out of the market, with recent Chapter 11 filings from Quickway Transportation and Robert Bearden Trucking removing hundreds of drivers from the road. While honest fleets fold, a deadly chameleon carrier network has been exposed for dodging regulations and operating dangerous equipment under multiple identities. Regulators are attempting to close safety loopholes, including a review of foreign trucker commercial driver's licenses currently pending at the OMB. Amidst the chaos, innovation offers some relief, as Truck Parking Club hits a major milestone in unlocking safe spaces for drivers to rest.
