IDLE NO MORE: SOLUTIONS FOR REDUCING FLEET IDLING IN NY
New York City has taken the enforcement approach through the Citizens Air Complaint Program, which deputizes citizens to record trucks with a cash reward of 25% of the fine. This program incentivizes punitive action against trucking companies without providing them with meaningful alternatives to idling. Fleets do not need more tickets – they need real solutions that will instill best practices and tools to eliminate the need to idle in most cases.
On Thursday, April 25th at 11:00 a.m., representatives from sustainability organizations and the trucking industry gathered to discuss what these solutions could be during an online webinar.
