Volvo Trucks

trucking industry where 70,000 owner-operators have been left in limbo as the law takes effect. More litigation is sure to follow, and SCOTUS may still decide to hear a similar case as other states pass laws like AB5.

One thing is for sure, we have not heard the last of the problems involving AB5.

Another case involving some of the same issues was also denied a hearing by the high court. In Miller vs. C.H. Robinson, the defendant, who had been injured in a collision with a truck hired by Robinson, claimed that he received injuries due to the negligence of Robinson, a thirdparty logistics brokerage, who hired the driver knowing he had multiple traffic violations on his record.

Like CTA, Robinson argued that a state could not rule on their liability because they were involved in interstate commerce and that F4A should have been the guiding principle of the case. Again, the lower court ruled that F4A did not preempt the state’s laws governing such accidents and awarded damages to Miller.

The upshot of these cases is that for the time being the U.S. will remain a jumble of laws in different states that may collide with federal laws when it comes to interstate trucking. The lack of a SCOTUS decision on this important litigation leaves independent truckers in turmoil and brokerages such as Robinson, and the shippers it represents, on the defensive when it comes to claims against its carriers.

In other words, the high court’s lack of decisiveness adds more confusion to the trucking industry at a time when the industry is facing several other issues.
