On episode 849 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner celebrates Friday the 13th with Carrier411’s Darren Brewer. Some consider him the Jason Voorhees of freight, but is he really the boogeyman?

Brewer discusses the latest change to their platform, targeting brokers accessing the site from foreign IP addresses. We’ll find out what measures they’re taking to combat fraud and bad actors.

We’ll also explore how FreightGuards work, how to avoid being FreightGuarded, what to do if you are, and examine the broker vs. carrier battle.

Plus, a judge forces DAT to halt its factoring platform; Overhaul releases protest alert; a bicycle-riding attorney pushes to ban spiked truck hubcaps; and more.
