The better our highway systems, the safer drivers will be. This is good news for vehicle transportation in general, for 3PLs, for our carriers, and for our customers.
Two transportation items recently caught our attention, and they seem to be at odds with one another. At the very least, when put together, they’re pretty odd.
The Roadcheck is both standard and unusual this time around. Standard, in that the FMCSA has conducted its special safety check each year since 1988. Unusual in that there may be a notable—though temporary—drop in the number of available carriers.
We’re reaching out to our carriers. We campaign to be as prepared as possible so that everyone has opportunity—to work, to schedule in advance, and to contribute to any recovery efforts in a smart and strategic way.
Both as a human interest story of people acting as good Samaritans and from our position as participants in the logistics industry, this peaceful resolution makes us proud.
