ASK THE LAW™

Radio, Print and Internet Programs

Brought to you as a Public Service by:

The "Ask The Law™" programs are an ongoing educational effort between Ol’ Blue, USA and commercial law enforcement agencies. We hope you find this feature of Ol’ Blue, USA both helpful and enjoyable. The bottom line: we would hope this page and its information and guidance will help keep drivers from being ticketed or placed out-of-service.

The specific purpose during our live radio broadcasts of the “Ask The Law” program is to have truckers call or write Ol’ Blue, USA and pose questions to law enforcement officials relating to safety and legal issues concerning commercial vehicles.

Radio Programs   

“Ask The Law” is a series of live radio broadcasts with Ol’ Blue, USA founder, RJ Taylor, and members of law enforcement from across the United States. The award-winning program broadcasts are heard throughout North America on the Midnight Trucking Radio Network.

For the forth year in a row, Sr. Trooper Monty Dial (Ret.) along with Jim Brokaw and Ol' Blue, USA's “Ask The Law” radio program was awarded the Truck Writers of North America’s 2007 Gold Award-Radio at the MATS Truck Show in March.
