Does Your Brokerage Verify Compliance Down to the Asset Level—or Are You Relying on a Shield That No Longer Exists?
Following the Supreme Court’s unanimous 9-0 ruling in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport, industry leaders are re-evaluating what constitutes “ordinary care” in carrier selection. If a standard carrier-level check misses an excluded driver or an unlisted VIN at the exact moment of dispatch, where does the liability fall?
We suggest considering whether your current workflows are built to withstand this new legal standard, or if true ordinary care now requires real-time, asset-level verification.
Exploring New Workflow Standards
Join meshVI CEO & Founder Andy Sharpe at the upcoming ATA Legal Forum, August 2–4 in Washington, D.C. During the forum, Andy will invite attendees to explore how leading forwarders are transitioning toward live, highways-certified data to help establish a new, defensible standard of ordinary care.
A Continuous Conversation
This isn’t a new inquiry for meshVI. Pointing back to our November 2025 frameworks, Andy warned the industry about these precise asset-level vulnerabilities months before the Supreme Court’s unanimous Montgomery ruling made them a primary risk vector.
