Also, droughts besides having an impact on commercial motor vehicle safety can have an impact as well upon their loads. Very dry weather can cause to lowering the agricultural commodities. That means that trucking companies will lose their loads.
Evidence of Climate Change
The trucking industry is witnessing few direct global pieces of evidence of climate change.
First and foremost, I would start from the fact that the average Arctic temperatures have increased twice the average rate in the past 100 years.
Later on, it has brought heavy precipitation events in frequency over most land areas, due to the increase in average atmospheric water vapor content.
Few research bodies in the USA such as are the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have started with the evaluation of the risk that the human-induced climate change can cause, and what the impacts on commercial motor vehicle safety can be.
