GPS devices increase its number in the trucking industry and became a huge part of delivery companies too. With the GPS transport got a new way of delivery.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), there are 1,5 million drivers in delivery companies.

That is about a third of 3,5 million, which is the number of total drivers in the US, according to the American Trucking Association (ATA).

Depending on several factors affecting the industry like traffic, destination distance, an average transportation of delivery companies is 10 delivers per day. Doing the math, 1,5 million drivers are providing 15,000000 deliveries per day.

However, no one knows in what manner these companies are completing their deliveries. Are they completing them on time or not?

The thing is, if you want to achieve in providing superior deliveries, you need quality and modern technology devices.

How is GPS Tracking Changing Delivery Companies?

Running a trucking company is not easy, especially when you have to deal with tons of deliveries in a day.

What do you think are the top CSA violations in the trucking industry?

Moreover, have you ever did any CSA violations while on duty?

Intentionally or not, every trucker has.

Being a truck driver requires being able to multitask and have an extensive knowledge and skills in the industry.

Additionally, there are the hours of service, the time management, and respecting of the regulations.

Having said this, not everyone is capable of operating a truck.

Continually, every regulation or violation has its meaning.

Those meanings are taught at the truck driver training classes and should be remembered.

More importantly, they need to be respected.

What Do CSA Point Values Mean?

As a truck driver who is constantly on the road you need to be familiar with the rules, regulations on the road.

More importantly, you need to be aware of the facts that are referring to the CSA valuations.

As an illustration, the CSA points are points that are taken off of your license when you violate the law.

To emphasize, CSA means Compliance, Safety and Accountability Points.

When it comes to the ELD mandate, I am sure you will all agree with me that there are a lot opposing, reverse and contradictory opinions out there. Having said this, people have all kinds of opinions regarding the mandate!

Continually, for some, it’s just another rule and regulation on the list with “obeying stuff”, while others find it as a demanding and disturbing thing that will interfere with their usual daily routine.

Furthermore, most people, including me, do not like changes. This is due to the drastic changes made in the previous years.

Moreover, I am not saying that there are no benefits in changing and updating your resources and ways of doing things, but I personally do not like and have a hard time with changes, even if they are for the better!

To continue with, I am sure many people are like me, and can’t see clearly the bigger picture and the good that comes with deploying new technology and upgrades such as the ELD.

For instance, there is an old veteran driver and a rookie driver comparison. To emphasize, the first will most likely have difficulties adjusting to the new Electronic Logging Device Mandate.

Today we are to look at learning why is so important for you to monitor your excessive acceleration.

Now, we are Americans which means we all know and use the expressions same like Ricky Bobby said, “I want to go fast” and the other one where he says “If you are not first, then you are last”.

Well if you are running a mean machine in NASCAR  making those never ending left turns, this might be true. But if you’re driving an 80,000 pound big rig, or any class 8 truck, not so much! Slamming on the Jake Brakes won’t help you take that turn!

It’s one thing when you doing excessive acceleration just for the show, and it is other thing when you are out on the open road with other participants in the traffic.

Excessive acceleration isn’t going to help you get to where you’re going. You might be thinking that is a rather dumb statement. Well, on the service perhaps it is!

After all, when you’re watching some trucker movie and there are playing trucker music and songs about having a long way to go and a short time to get there, they are intending to use more than a little excessive acceleration!

Some might even say it depends on all matters of issues to determine what the difference is, but believe me when I am saying, there is a big difference, and I am going to speak in this article and tell you all about that difference!

So first of all, let’s touch on a few key points about the overall truck driving job. These are the points that are obvious yet the same, regardless how one is classified. First and foremost is what is required to legally operate a commercial truck and what is even considered a commercial truck?

So to the second point first. The simplest answer is: a commercial vehicle is any vehicle used for official business. Further descriptions would say one that is used for and represents a company, organization, business, or other in any official capacity. Some examples are:

Every business has its own set of issues and concerns and as such there are several important trucking industry factors which can have a major impact on your overall operation.

These factors can be small enough to affect only your company or major enough to impact the entire trucking industry. Sometimes these can even have an indirect effect on other markets and industries that rely on the trucking industry!

But first things first, you might be wondering, “What is meant by trucking industry factors?”

That is a very valid question. Obviously, I dedicated an entire article to it. Well, trucking industry factors are just that, things that will have an effect on your business, or the industry as a whole. Now these can be either positive (good) or negative (bad). This usually depends on what aspect the ‘it’ actually influences.

The thing with the trucking industry (or the transportation industry as a whole) that makes it unique is that every other industry relies on it. This reliance is either direct or indirect but nonetheless the impact is there. Before I continue, can you name one industry that doesn’t rely on trucking? Take your time!

That’s right none. Nada. Zip. Zilch! Everything must get transported from one place to another. To include the trucks used to haul the deliveries. The auto manufacturer uses trucks to deliver the parts. Service stations use them to deliver fuel. Stores use them to get their products.

Even the military uses the trucking industry to get their equipment from one point to another. From the seed farmers use to plant their fields to the tractors and fertilizer they use, the trucking industry is/was there.

If you want to learn more about the regulations facing the trucking, logistics jobs, and the logistics jobs industry, visit US. Small business Administration’s (SBA) Transportation and Logistics guide.

It can be hard to know everything, and they can even be a bit confusing, many companies hire compliance personnel. They are specially trained and have a better understand of the laws and requirements, allowing you to focus on the actual business.

Now, sure some of these government agencies might apply to all companies, such as the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Of course, each industry will have their own specific set of rules, regulations, and guidelines (in addition to the basic standards). But the transportation industry is one of the most highly regulated industries in the USA.

Logistics jobs are also the only industry that directly impacts every facet of America! No, it is true! No other industry can say that! Sure others might be important and other might have an impact but all the others rely on the logistics jobs!

How else would the hospital get its equipment? How would the local police department receive their new vehicles? How do the groceries and other consumer goods arrive at the market and other retail stores?

Simple, the logistics jobs and the trucking industry makes it happen! That is why logistics jobs and related positions are so essential to the nation. Even the highway department that is building and maintaining the roads relies on them.

 So then that begs another important question…
