The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is having an unprecedented effect on our country, including on the trucking and logistics industry. Trucking and logistics are an essential service to keep medical supplies, groceries, cleaning and sanitizing supplies, and much more moving through the supply chain during this crisis. At the same time, fleets face challenges as they try to keep drivers and other employees safe and healthy, stay compliant with regulations, continue to operate safely and efficiently, and address business and economic hurdles.
