Groendyke recognized as CCJ Innovator
Commercial Carriers Journal recently recognized Groendyke Transport as the July 2020 CCJ Innovator because of the tank truck carrier’s work to reduce rear-end collisions using a pulsating amber brake light on its trailers.
After 30 months of testing showed a 33.7% decrease in rear-end accidents, Groendyke filed for an exemption with the Federal Motor Carriers Safety Association in April 2018 to continue testing the unique brake light. A year later, FMCSA approved Groendyke’s five-year exemption, and in October 2020, National Tank Truck Carriers’ 5-year exemption request for all tank trailer operators was also approved.
