About the Podcast:
The American Trucking Research Institute (ATRI) releases an annual report on critical issues in the trucking industry. This report is based on a survey from industry practitioners to determine the most important issues they face. At the American Trucking Associations Management Conference and Exhibition event, the top five issues in this year’s report were released:
• The economy
• Truck Parking
• Fuel Prices
• Driver Shortage
• Driver Compensation
As years go by, more and more stakeholders have been invited to provide their opinions. Over 4,000 stakeholders participated in this years survey, with 47% of stakeholders representing motor carriers, 29% were drivers, and 23% represented law enforcement and industry suppliers.
