During the pandemic, Americans had a newfound appreciation for truck drivers who persevered through all adversity to keep stores and hospitals stocked. They kept America moving . They were essential …and they still are.
The vital role truck drivers continue to play should not be overlooked or taken for granted. It should be celebrated. After all…
- 46B tons of good are transported by trucks each year.
- 80% of US communities rely exclusively on trucks to receive their goods.
- Roughly 14M trucks operate in the United States.
- 48B miles are traveled annually by trucks.
