On The Highway With Thom Bray
It’s the end of an era on RadioNemo. Host Jimmy Mac welcomes Tom Bray, Senior Industry Business Advisor at J.J. Keller & Associates, for his final appearance before retirement. Since 2016, Tom has been a trusted voice for truckers nationwide, and today he delivers one last deep dive into one of the most important topics in trucking: Hours-of-Service regulations.
Tom takes us on a journey from the 1935 Motor Carrier Act through every major change in HOS rules — including exemptions, personal conveyance debates, the rise of electronic logging devices, and proposed updates on the horizon.
With decades of experience and insider knowledge, Tom shares not only the “how” but the “why” behind the regulations that keep drivers safe and the roads running.
From the early days of paper logs to the digital age of ELDs, and from strict limits to controversial exemptions, this is the most comprehensive on-air history lesson you’ll ever get on Hours-of-Service. Plus, Tom reflects on his career, the changes he’s witnessed, and what he hopes to see in the future of trucking safety.
