Nine areas of potential conflict between states and platooning regulations are identified across the MAASTO region.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0report concludes that the adoption of truck platooning is accelerating, but agencies and regulations may hinder this progress.<br \/>\nThe overall goal is to develop a Midwest Truck Platooning Regulatory Model that provides for harmonization of regulations governing truck platooning across the MAASTO region.<\/p>\n<h3>Brochure Also Available<\/h3>\n<p>A brochure is also available that gives a concise overview of the report&#8217;s findings in a graphical format.
