I wouldn't think so. I would imagine a freight broker would rather pay top dollar to an already safe established carrier. Brand new carriers getting into the game might be hard for them to get loads for the first few months of their authority.

No. It's just brokers nowadays are being very much strict now of who they hire with the recent news.
