‘An amazing moment’: Team drivers rescue
motorist from burning car
Most truck drivers spend the better part
of the year over the road. In the overall
calculations of the total minutes on the road, 36
minutes doesn’t seem very significant.
For Hirschbach Motor Lines Inc. drivers Ed
and Tracy Zimmerman — and one very lucky
motorist — on a late spring morning along a West
Virginia interstate, it only took 36 minutes for
several lives to be changed and one to be saved.
The Zimmermans, a team-driving married
couple from Kenesaw, Nebraska, wouldn’t
normally have been in West Virginia that day
in May 2019, the couple said, noting that the
route is one of the less traveled for them. Ed
was sleeping as Tracy took her turn at the wheel.
While traveling on Interstate 77 near Beckley,
West Virginia, the couple arrived on the scene
of a fiery crash.
Tracy stopped the truck, as another motorist
who had stopped to help, approached the
window, telling them that a man was stuck in
the burning car. Tracy woke Ed and they sprang
into action, grabbing their fire extinguisher,
and heading toward the car without a second
thought.
“When that man said that (someone) was still
trapped in the burning vehicle, I’m like, ‘We
gotta get him out,’” Ed said. “I don’t know how
yet. I haven’t seen it yet, but we gotta get him
out.”
The Zimmermans, with the help of the other
motorist who had stopped to assist, were able to
pry the car door open with a crowbar and pull
the man from the driver’s seat. Then, the driver
revealed that he had a firearm and ammunition
in the car.
“We all just kind of looked at each other like,
‘We gotta move, and now,’” Ed explained.
By this time, the small fire extinguisher from
the Zimmermans’ truck had been exhausted —
and it would likely never have completed the
job anyway. They grabbed the driver by the
waistband of his pants and pulled him 25 feet
or so farther from the car, just as a turnpike
courtesy vehicle arrived and parked between
the burning vehicle and the group.
“[The courtesy officer] got out of the car and
within just minutes, even seconds, you hear the
ammunition popping off, and then you hear this
big sizzle and a hiss,” Tracy shared. “And then
the explosion, as the car went flying in the air.”
Tracy said shortly thereafter the first
responders arrived on the scene and treated
the driver’s minor injuries, carried him to the
hospital, put out the fire and cleared the road.
The Zimmermans’ work was done, and they
climbed back into the truck and got back on
the road. When Tracy had parked the truck, she
never changed her ELD status. The clock had
been running, and showed that the incident had
only taken 36 minutes.
“I looked at that and I’m like, ‘36 minutes?’
It felt like we’d been there for two hours at
least,” Tracy said. “We just went into this weird
standstill and 36 minutes changed our lives,
changed that man’s life; we saved not just him,
but we saved his whole family.”
The Zimmermans later found that the police
report said the man had fallen asleep at the
wheel after working a late third shift. He was
headed to see his daughter for her birthday.
“So, we saved not just him, we saved his
entire family that day because it really could
have changed the course of their family,” Tracy
added. “That was just an amazing moment in
time.”

Ed and Tracy Zimmerman of Kenesaw,
Nebraska were one of the first vehicles to
arrive at the scene of an accident in Beckley,
West Virginia. The two helped to save a
motorist who was trapped in his vehicle.
Shortly thereafter, the Truckload Carriers
Association heard of the couple’s heroic deed
and recognized them as Highway Angels,
which is not something the couple expected.
They wore the designation as a badge of honor
and proudly displayed the sticker on their
truck.
The Highway Angel program, now in
its 23rd year, recognizes professional truck
drivers who have selflessly helped others
while on the job. From each year’s Angels,
one is selected as Highway Angel of the Year,
also known as EpicAngels, by TCA and its
partner EpicVue.
For 2019, 38 Angels were recognized, and
Ed and Tracey Zimmerman were selected as
the Highway Angels of the Year. They were
presented with the award at TCA’s annual
convention in Kissemee, Florida, earlier this
year.
“Thank you both for your selfless act
of courage on that May morning,” said
EpicVue CEO Lance Platt after presenting the
Zimmermans with a crystal award.
Before heading to Florida, the couple
heard the news from Hirschbach’s marketing
director during a company bowling trip. The
couple was “floored,” and Tracy said Ed was
speechless, adding that this is something that
doesn’t happen often.
As amazing as the award was to the
Zimmermans, they two are quick to say that
they simply did what they felt was the right
thing to do in that moment.
“We stopped to help a human who needed
help,” Ed said. “That’s all we did, and that’s
why we did it.”
Ed added that he hopes that this award and
sharing their story with others will help the
image of truck drivers across the nation.
“All everybody ever hears are the bad things
that happens out here,” Ed shared. “We really
want to push the good stories because, in your
darkest hour out here on the road, if, heaven
forbid, something happens, a truck driver
is going to be the first person on the scene.
They’re going to be the first ones there to help
you out.”
The remainder of that May day turned
out to be just like any other day for the
Zimmermans as they carried on delivering
their load to Hodgkins, Illinois. Tracy noted,
though, that everything could have been
different that day if the couple had made one
extra stop beforehand, delaying their schedule.
“You know, God puts you where he needs
you most, and that day he needed us right there
at that moment,” Tracy said. “I really believe
that.”

Southern California truckers
organize for ‘slow roll’ for
awareness of low freight rates
On the other side of the country from Washington
D.C. during the ongoing “mayday” protests
on May 1, southern California truckers held
a protest echoing the concerns of other owneroperators
from coast to coast regarding low
freight rates.
While concurrent protests in Washington
D.C. aimed to physically garner the attention of
the federal government and the White House,
one of the southern California event’s organizers,
owner-operator Miguel Ramirez said this
protest was a part of a nationwide effort to call
attention to the low rates truckers are being offered
from brokers for hauling essential goods.
“We are joining a national movement, and it
is taking place from the east coast to the west
coast as we speak,” Rameriz said, noting that

Trucks from throughout southern
California line up for a ‘slow roll’
along the harbor near the Port of
Los Angeles as a part of “mayday”
protests throughout the country.
he feels the rating system that determines how
much a load pays should be changed or at the
very least, analyzed.
“We know it is not going to happen overnight,
but we want a change in the pricing
and ratings systems, and we just want to bring
awareness to the general public,” Rameriz said.
Gio Marz, another of the event’s organizers,
echoed the sentiment that the southern California
protest aims to be a “peaceful, slow roll for
unity.”
He said this legal and peaceful demonstration,
which was assembled at the Port of Los
Angeles in San Pedro, California, will join another
convoy coming from Fontana, California.
Additionally, Marz said he and the participants
see this protest as a way to show they are
standing in solidarity with other truckers across
the country who have selected May Day (May 1,
2020) for their symbolic ‘mayday’ distress call.
“We want to bring awareness from politicians,
to governors, to big corporations, to the
everyday consumer,” Marz said. “If you have
essential goods on your shelves at your house,
it is because, most likely, the truckers brought
it to you.”
The planned protest at the port drew more
than 60 trucks that lined up, blew their air horns
and began a slow drive to Los Angeles City Hall,
where they were joined by the second convoy.
Marz also noted that right now, truck drivers
are risking their well-being to deliver goods
throughout the nation during the COVID-19
pandemic.
Other event organizers, who delivered an
address in a mixture of English and Spanish,
said, “The place is here, and the time is now,”
to recognize the importance of truck drivers and
their efforts in carrying the nation through the
COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s a risk. Every single time we leave our
house, we are at risk,” Marz said. “We’re on
the front lines, and we are not getting paid what

we deserve. Eighty percent of the truck port
drivers [here in LA] are owner-operators like
myself. If the rates for the loads are coming
down, it does not make sense for us to keep running
our trucks businesswise. Today the mission
is for us to just unite across the board as truckers
and say ‘no’ to cheap freight.”
Marz said his message to brokers is to “stop
being greedy,” but he also acknowledges that
customers can deal directly with carriers instead
of utilizing brokers, which would allow many
owner-operators to eliminate another step in the
logistics of the supply chain.
The group offered T-shirts commemorating
the event for free in exchange for donations that
will be used to help pay the fines of other drivers
who have received citations during other nonrelated
freight-rate protests in the area.
OOIDA urges Congress to
require transparency for
brokers
As small trucking business
protests continue for the seventh
consecutive day in Washington
D.C., OOIDA (Owner
Operator Independent Driver
Association) has stepped into
the fray.
The organization sent a
letter to Congress on May 6,
asking that brokers be prohibited
from demanding that carriers
waive their rights under
FMCSR 371.3, which guarantees
access to the full record to
every party that participates in
a brokered transaction. The full
record shows how much the
broker was paid for the haul
and any additional services
provided as well as payment to
the trucker.
The OOIDA letter also
asked that the regulation be
amended to require the broker
to provide the information at
the completion of the load. In its current form,
the regulation states that the recipient must ask
for the information. Brokers have instituted
rules, such as mandating that the records can
only be inspected at their office location during
normal business hours, a requirement that effectively
prohibits over-the-road truckers from ever
seeing the information.
OOIDA had announced that it sent a letter
to its 160,000 members on May 1, the day the
protest began, warning about dealing with unscrupulous
brokers and urging owner-operators
to report issues to the FMCSA’s National Consumer
Complaint Database, for which a link was
provided (https://nccdb.fmcsa.dot.gov/nccdb/
home.aspx).
The organization has been criticized by some
of the Washington protesters for, in their view,
not doing enough to support the demonstration.
However, OOIDA’s position on broker transparency
is not a new one. Given the attention generated
by the ongoing protest in the nation’s capital,
the timing of OOIDA’s letter to Congress
could generate a more favorable response.

FMCSA’s proposed rules crack
down on drug and alcohol
violations, ask for ‘CMV
driving ban’ for offenders
Under new rules proposed by the Federal
Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA),
state driver’s licensing agencies (SDLAs) would
be prohibited from issuing, renewing, upgrading
or transferring a commercial driver’s license
(CDL) or learner’s permit (CPL) for drivers who
have been barred from operating a commercial
motor vehicle (CMV) due to drug or alcohol
violations.
The proposal is designed to provide real-time
information from the Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse
to SDLAs to keep drivers with drug or
alcohol offenses off the road until they comply
with return-to-duty requirements.
The notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM),
posted April 28, calls for SDLAs to check commercial
license applicants’ status in the Clearinghouse;
if the results show a driver is prohibited
from operating a CMV, the agency
would be required to deny licensing.
Affected drivers could re-apply for
licensing after completing return-toduty
requirements. The notice also
outlines how state licensing agencies
would use Clearinghouse information
to help enforce CMV driving
prohibitions.
As an alternative, FMCSA proposes
that SDLAs receive “push”
notifications from the Drug & Alcohol
Clearinghouse indicating when
drivers licensed within the state are
prohibited from operating a CMV.
“Currently, most states are not
aware when a CDL holder licensed
in their state is prohibited from
driving a CMV due to an alcohol
or drug testing violation,” the proposal
notes. “Consequently, there
is no federal requirement that SD-
LAs take any action on the license
of drivers subject to that prohibition. As a result,
a driver can continue to hold a valid CLP
or CDL, even while prohibited from operating
a CMV under FMCSA’s drug and alcohol
regulations.”
This alternative proposes a licensing downgrade
to align a driver’s licensing status with
his or her current CMV driving status, closing
a current loophole in regulations. To achieve the
mandatory downgrade, SDLAs would change
CDL and CLP holders’ commercial status from
“licensed” to “eligible.”
FMCSA’s proposal also addresses operational
questions and legal considerations identified
by SDLAs, both individually and through the
American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators.
FMCSA will accept public comments through
June 29. When submitting comments, refer to
Docket No. FMCSA- FMCSA-2017-0330 and
indicate the specific section of the document to
which each comment applies; also note a reason
for each recommendation. Comments may be
submitted via fax, mail or hand delivery, or at
federalregister.gov.

Over 450,000 Peterbilt, Kenworth trucks
recalled for ABS warning-light defect
iStock Photo
The PACCAR recall affects more
than 450,000 trucks including
Kenworth T680s manufactured
between 2011 and 2020.
PACCAR Inc. has announced a recall of
455,458 Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks because of
concerns that a blown fuse could prevent the illumination
of dashboard warning lights in the case
of a malfunction in the trucks’ antilock brakes or
electronic stability control.
The risk of an accident increases when a driver
is unaware of a faulty indicator light, according
to documentation submitted by PACCAR to the
National Highway Safety Administration in early
April.
The noncompliance recall (NHSA recall
20V-199) includes trucks equipped with
NAMUX Software that included the 25%
voltage threshold setting for the ABS/ESC
malfunction indicator lamp and affects 23 Peterbilt
and Kenworth models manufactured between
Jan. 10, 2007 and July 10, 2019 (model years
2008-2020).
According to PACCAR’s submission, “The
NAMUX software illuminates the Tractor ABS/
ESC Lamps when the voltage from the ABS/ESC
ECU at a specific input pin of the CECU cab controller
drops below 25% of the battery input voltage
present at the CECU. In the instance where the
ABS/ESC ECU loses power (i.e. the fuse blows)
the voltage being measured may not drop below
the 25% voltage threshold; thus, the ABS and/or
ESC malfunction lamp will not illuminate.”
“This recall is an outgrowth of investigation
performed in connection with 18V-368. Further
testing showed a larger population of vehicles was
affected and proposed remedies were not effective,”
PACCAR stated. “A new testing matrix and
a bench test were developed in September 2018.”
The remedy consists of updating the NAMUX
software within the cab control module, according
to the report.
The following trucks are affected by the recall:
• Peterbilt 330 (2008-2019)
• Peterbilt 335 (2008-2011)
• Peterbilt 337 (2008-2019)
• Peterbilt 340 (2008-2011)

Drivewyze app expands offerings to keep
drivers informed of rest-area openings
While the evolving impact of the CO-
VID-19 crisis on state’s rest-area operations
has created confusion over which sites remain
open for truckers, the need for drivers
to find safe parking hasn’t subsided.
“Not knowing where drivers will find
available parking at the end of each day
continues to be a challenge and a stressor
for truckers,” said Brian Heath, CEO of
Drivewyze.
In response to this need, Drivewyze has
expanded its temporary rest-area parking notifications
to include Arizona, Virginia and
Ohio.
“Drivers are busy driving and don’t have
time to keep track of changing open/close
statuses at traditional parking areas,” Heath
said. “This problem is exacerbated when you
add temporary parking sites to the equation.
New temporary parking is welcome, but how
do drivers know where those are on a timely
basis?”
Arizona recently opened two temporary
sites, and Virginia is now allowing longterm
parking at 10 weigh stations. The Ohio
state DOT has asked Drivewyze to provide
messaging to truckers as an extension of the
state’s decision to keep all rest areas open,
patrolled and safe. According to Heath,
Drivewyze leveraged its GPS-based safetynotification
service to help drivers in these
three states.
“We volunteered to map out all the sites in
these effected states and put our technology
to work,” he said. “Truckers now receive an
automated heads-up notification with open/
close status 25 miles and 5 miles prior to the
rest areas in Arizona and weigh stations in
Virginia. In Ohio, the notification that all

pandemic is causing confusion
about which areas remain open.
sites are open goes out when a trucker crosses
the state line. The goal is to give drivers in
all three states a sense of relief in knowing
where they can park.
“This work was done in conjunction with
our state DOT partners,” Heath continued.
“We saw it as a joint mission to help drivers,
and the alerts will continue as long as CO-
VID-19 is impacting parking. We will add
states and sites as circumstances change. It’s
truly a liquid situation.”
In addition to the three new states added,
Drivewyze provides temporary parking notifications
for Pennsylvania and Florida.
Both the Drivewyze PreClear weigh-station
bypass service, and the Drivewyze safetynotifications
service are available to carriers
on supported ELDs and other in-cab devices,
through the Drivewyze partner network.

Volvo offers auto-hauler day cab in new
height
The Volvo Auto Hauler (VAH) 300,
Volvo Trucks’ signature day cab in the
North American market, is now available
for order at an unladen 94.5-inch height.
This reduced-height cab option is currently
the lowest in the industry by 1.5
inches, offering auto haulers versatility
for local and regional automobile-transport
applications.
“Through extensive research, testing
and engineering in collaboration with
Fontaine Modification, the new VAH
300 model with a 94.5-inch height represents
a new standard of excellence for
trucks in the highly specialized autohauler
market,” said John Felder, product
marketing manager at Volvo Trucks
North America.
Over the last 10 years, the height of
vehicles hauled has significantly increased
as the demand for more SUVs
versus sedans rises. As a result, auto
haulers are now in need of a solution
that maximizes freight capacity while
also delivering optimal efficiency. The
lower overall height of the VAH 300 offers
the flexibility to position a larger
vehicle over the truck’s cab to maximize
payload. A clean top-of-frame behind the
cab also allows for easier body mounting
and trailer hookup.
Consistent with the rest of the VAH
family, the new reduced-height VAH 300
model features deep-drop front axles and
low-height Volvo Air Ride rear suspensions.
The model is available with Volvo‘s
D11 and D13 engines.
