LLN (12/7/22) – The potential rail strike was averted last week, but according to DAT some shippers still took preventative measures and diverted some volume to truckload. Also, the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute is continuing its efforts to teach people how to safely share the road with truck drivers. We’ll hear from one of the senior research associates who is getting creative when it comes to showing motorists the vantage point of a truck driver, and why it's important to keep that in mind while on the road. And everyone likes a nice good Samaritan story. Marty Ellis recently ran into such a story, and he took some time to tell all of us about it.
