Description

In a scheme plaguing roadways, some commercial trucking networks are racking up safety violations and evading federal enforcement by dissolving bad records and operating under new names. "60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

This is the 60 Minutes that I remember from the 80s. It’s about time.

As a trucker who sees this 1st hand, cant believe this is getting air time. Anyone who has observed the industry can confirm super ego is absolute garbage

23-year veteran driver here. Many of us veteran drivers have been reporting these companies for years. Nothing was done then and nothing will be done now.

CBS take note: *this* is journalism. This is the type of thing that made my grandparents tune in to _60 Minutes_ every Sunday evening. The lack of it is why I couldn't tell you when it's on.

Glad to see 60 minutes returning to what they became famous for, I haven't seen one like this since the 90's.
