DOT Blitz Week didn’t just shake the freight market. It may have reset it. On this week’s episode of The Transfix Take, Jenni Ruiz and Justin “Maze” Maze break down one of the most volatile weeks the freight market has seen in years. Coming out of DOT Blitz Week and heading straight into Memorial Day weekend, rates are climbing fast, capacity is tightening in key regions, and brokers are feeling pressure from every direction. Maze walks through the latest national and regional market movement, including a 13% jump in national average linehaul rates, major spikes across the Southeast and Midwest, continued diesel pressure, and why the West Coast remained comparatively stable. The episode also touches on the Supreme Court’s recent ruling around broker liability and negligent hiring, a decision that could reshape how brokers think about carrier vetting moving forward. If you are pricing freight, covering loads, managing capacity, or trying to understand whether this is a short-term holiday spike or the beginning of a broader market shift, this episode is one to watch closely. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.
