TIA & OOIDA Send Letter to CVSA

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) and the Owner-Operator Independent Driver Association (OOIDA) sent a letter to the Commercial Vehicle Saftey Alliance (CVSA) asking them to postpone the International Road check scheduled for May 5-7, 2020. We continue to update the interactive Freight Disruptions Map with several states that have issued a shelter-in-place order, and the map is turning red pretty quickly. We also developed a sample letter that is available for use with your motor carrier or shipper customers if questions arise about being classified as “essential.”
