The Fourth Quarter 2022 edition of Alabama Trucker focuses on the ATA Comp Fund and its remarkable growth within the state of Alabama – as well outside of the state. The Fund, with its sister organization, Alliance Interstate Risk (or AIR), is growing incredibly fast, spurred on by the group’s recent expansion across state lines. President and CEO Kimble Coaker and his team are building something special with lasting benefits and results for the industry for many years to come.
Also inside, we break down ATRI’s annual Top Industry Concerns Survey, including specific results for Alabama. Nationally, truckers say fuel costs are putting a damper on profits, and for the first time in years, they say the cost of fuel is now the industry’s top concern. Here in Alabama, though, it’s all about workforce development and the shaky economy.
We also introduce the National Motor Freight Traffic Association’s Digital LTL Council's new Electronic Bill of Lading standard.
