        are morning and evening traffic jams
        and nobody knows when or where it
        will pile up, often causing an ‘accordion
        effect’ of traffic where commuters all
        come to sudden slowdowns or complete
        stops in short distances, ultimately
        causing major incidences involving
        multiple vehicles,” Brett Schaefer,
        VisuaLogistics chairman and CEO said.
            The closest things to ADAS cur-
        rently on the market are digital message
        boards and camera monitoring systems,
        and neither can update drivers in real
        time about upcoming conditions.

        an agonizing decision but the right    Tractor-trailer financing for
        one for my young family. Since that    Arkansas transportation companies
        announcement, I have been urged to
