The number of goods that are transported every day in the USA is astronomical, but when you think about it in terms of weight, it becomes virtually unbelievable. In 2012, according to the US Department of Transport’s Bureau Of Transportation Statistics (BTS), $11.7 billion tons of freight was transported on America’s road network. The combined commercial value of all those shipments was $13.6 trillion, traveling a total of 3.3 trillion ton-miles. Trucking really does keep America’s economy on the move.
