The movement of goods across the supply chain has become more important and complex in recent years. Consumers expect next-day, and even same-day, deliveries. There are more vehicles on the road than ever, with nearly 14 million trucks traveling more than 327 billion miles in 2021. At the same time, technology is playing an ever-increasing role in carriers’ operations as they deploy a wide array of devices and software to streamline their processes, ensure compliance, enhance the driver experience and improve customer service.
The American Trucking Associations (ATA) reports that the industry’s investment in safety jumped by nearly 43% between 2015 and 2022 (the most recent data available). Reaching almost $14 billion, the spending included key safety-related areas: on-board technology, training, incentives, maintenance and compliance. This combination of factors creates new safety-related challenges, but also opportunities for carriers to adapt and thrive.
