Throughout this year, the transportation industry has seen heightened federal enforcement focused on driver licensing, cabotage regulations, and English language proficiency requirements. These initiatives, including Operation Midway Blitz and related investigations, have resulted in thousands of drivers being taken off the road. Many experts predict tighter trucking capacity across the United States as a result.
At Averitt, we believe these developments highlight the importance of doing things the right way every time, every mile.
A Longstanding Commitment to Safety and Compliance
Averitt’s commitment to highway safety and regulatory compliance has been a core part of who we are for more than 50 years. Every Averitt driver is fully licensed, trained, and fluent in English, meeting and exceeding all federal and state standards. We do not employ B-1 visa drivers, and we work only with carefully vetted partner carriers who uphold the same standards of compliance and professionalism.
This ensures every driver operating under the Averitt name can communicate clearly, operate safely, and represent our customers and our company with the highest level of integrity.
Confidence in Our Capacity
While increased enforcement may reduce capacity in parts of the industry, Averitt is built for stability. With thousands of professional drivers, an extensive asset network, and integrated transportation and logistics services, we are prepared to support shippers through any market shift.
Our size and structure give customers confidence that their supply chains will continue to move safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with all regulations.
A Steady Partner in a Shifting Landscape
Regulations evolve, markets fluctuate, and headlines change, but Averitt’s focus remains the same. We are committed to ensuring safety on the road, maintaining compliance in every operation, and providing reliable capacity when it matters most.
For shippers and partners alike, these recent developments serve as a reminder of the value of working with a carrier you can trust, one that invests in people, training, and infrastructure to deliver peace of mind with every shipment.
