Expanded coverage focuses on different driving careers

I am very grateful that so many of you have taken me up on my request to contact me with your feedback and input. After sharing many of your thoughts and ideas with our editorial team, we have decided to expand our editorial coverage by examining different types of truck-driving careers each month. This month, we explore the expedited freight segment (see page 16).
     We plan to revamp other editorial features as well, so keep coming back every month to see what else is new.
     I’d also like to remind you to join our Healthy Trucking forum (healthytruckinginfo.com). Thanks to all of you who have signed up and shared your health and exercise tips with everyone. I’ve enjoyed some of the recipes that have been posted; please keep them coming!
     Our Healthy Trucking Initiative is going strong, and we appreciate those of you who have joined us in raising awareness throughout the industry on the importance of drivers’ health and wellness. Whenever you visit a truck stop that does not have one of our blood pressure machines, have them give me a call, and we’ll try to place our machines exactly where you need them.
     Again, thank you for your feedback. Please stay in touch, stay safe and stay healthy.
