Be mindful of your HOS and allow yourself plenty of time to account for unexpected school traffic. • Be Aware of Traffic Congestion - Local expressway traffic in university towns tends to swell during active school sessions; it is especially troublesome at the start of the fall semester when so many new students are in town for the first time. Make sure to be mindful of your following distance and always allow yourself an out. #safety #ESOP #transportation #warehouse #logistics #supplychain
