Truck Parking Shortage is REAL | OOIDA Debunks False Study + Cybersecurity Threats in Trucking

September 04, 2025

Welcome to Trucking with OOIDA – where we put the issues that matter to truckers front and center. Since 1973, the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) has had the backs of professional drivers, and this show keeps that tradition alive.


In this episode, hosts Ashley Blackford and Scott Thompson tackle two critical topics:


Truck Parking Shortage: A new “study” claims there isn’t a shortage, but that doesn’t match the facts—or the daily experiences of truckers across the country. Andrew King of the OOIDA Foundation returns to set the record straight.

Cybersecurity Threats: Artie Crawford of the National Motor Freight Traffic Association warns about potential cyber risks from China that could be targeting the equipment in your truck.

OOIDA is here to make sure the voice of the driver is heard.


Stay informed. Stay protected. Stay on the road with Trucking with OOIDA.
