Industry Survey Shows Drivers and Carriers Rank Issues Differently

The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) recently released its report on the Industry Issues Survey conducted earlier this fall. Thanks to all the ICSA members who took the time to respond to the survey. Your input is important!

We thought you’d be interested in the comparison of the top 10 issues ranked by drivers versus those listed by carriers (company owners and executives) as shown below:

Commercial driver and motor carrier issues

In addition, owner/operator drivers and company employee drivers also differed in how they ranked three key issues.

The Top Industry Issues 2021 report has a lot of great information, so we encourage you to download it and read it as time permits. Review or download a copy of the full report. You will be asked to fill out a short contact form just so ATRI can see who’s downloading their reports.
