The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) releases an annual list outlining the top concerns faced by the trucking industry. This invaluable resource provides valuable insights into the challenges that trucking companies and drivers face.

The Biggest Trucking Concerns for 2019

1. Driver Shortage

Navigating the intricacies of these regulations can be overwhelming, but our team is well-versed in the HOS rules and can provide the necessary legal guidance to ensure compliance while optimizing operational efficiency.

This digital transition has alleviated some concerns while posing new challenges for businesses. Our attorneys can help you understand the ELD mandate, implement appropriate systems, and resolve any legal issues that may arise.

The condition of infrastructure and congestion on roads significantly impact the efficiency and safety of the trucking industry. The ATRI List recognizes this concern and emphasizes the need for investment in infrastructure improvements. Understanding the legal implications surrounding infrastructure and congestion is crucial, and our team is equipped to handle any related matters.
