Congressional Panel Moves To Give Feds Say Over Self-Driving Vehicles

A U.S. House committee July 27 approved legislation to give the federal government final say over the performance of self-driving vehicles, a measure that would preempt states from trying to set their own standards.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee unanimously approved the bill, which also would require the U.S. Department of Transportation to write a plan within a year to set rules for self-driving cars to share the roads with traditional vehicles and identify aspects of self-driving cars that may require performance standards such as sensors, software and the interaction between passengers and the car.

What is a Referral Partner and How Can They Help You Grow Your Business

Techopedia explains Referral Partner

Referral partners are an Internet marketing resource that can send targeted traffic toward the advertiser’s domain. Referral partners are selected by advertisers based on their website's subject. The partners write reviews and feedback about the product or place an ad for the advertiser. Whenever an ad is clicked and the prospective buyer performs a specific activity on the advertiser’s website, the referring website is paid a commission depending on the type of action performed by the referred user. 

These actions are usually sales, so the referral partner is paid only when the referred user buys a product or service and/or registers itself with the website to become a prospective lead. Referral partners are normally website and blog publishers producing content in a similar category as the products or services the advertiser is selling. For example, a technology blogger might rate a list of smartphone apps and provide links to pages where those apps can be purchased. When a website visitor buys an app, the blogger gets paid.  -  https://www.techopedia.com

Single Point Carrier Services is currently seeking new referral partners in the trucking and transportation industry.  Do you do business in the following areas?  ELD, Permits, 2017 Mandate Laws, Safety and Compliance, Factoring, Freight Forwarding, Distribution, Fleet Financing.  If so, call us today and ask about our Single Point Referral Partnership Program.
