NASHVILLE, TENN. (RFD-TV) — The trucking industry is voicing its support for the “Repair Act,” a bill that aims to establish a federal standard for the right to repair. The measure would give truck owners and operators the freedom to choose where and how their vehicles are repaired.
Lewie Pugh, with the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association, joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to share his perspective on the outlook for the Repair Act, any potential pushback it may face, and how it will impact truck drivers.
In his interview with RFD-TV News, Pugh discussed the benefits the legislation holds for the industry, how it could enhance business viability for small fleet owners and independent mechanics, and whether it could lead to faster repair turnaround times for drivers, producers, and consumers alike.
