In November 2010 some 200 attendees gathered in Baltimore, Maryland, for a conference focused on commercial truck and bus driver health and wellness issues. The conference brought together individuals from public-sector agencies (federal and state), the private sector (industry and labor unions), academia, and research institutions, both domestic and international, from transportation and health arenas. The conference goals were to (a) review research that identifies health and wellness issues for commercial drivers; (b) examine the magnitude of these issues; (c) identify countermeasures and current practices addressing these issues; (d) explore and, to the degree possible, document the effectiveness of such countermeasures and current practices; and (e) identify research gaps in this field.
