GLOSSARY OF TRUCK TERMS

This Glossary of Truck Terms, compiled by TWNA members, is aimed at providing basic information to those people involved in gathering, writing and reporting news and information about trucks, trucking and the trucking industry.

TWNA believes this Glossary of Truck Terms will be a useful tool, especially to those in the non-truck media.

The Glossary of Truck Terms is divided into four sections:

Trucking Terms

Legislative Acronyms

Government Entities

Industry Associations

TWNA wishes to acknowledge and thank the many members that made this glossary possible. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information.
