Anti-Idling Movement
  • Local and state regulators no longer want trucks
    to idle during drivers down time or rest
    periods.
  • New DOT regulations require drivers to have more
    down time and will lead too more potential
    idling time.

Current Practices
  • According to a studies conducted by Argonne
    National Laboratory the average sleeper-cab
    tractor idles for 1,830 hours annually, and
    consumes approximately one gallon of diesel fuel
    per hour1
  • Long-haul trucks idling overnight consume more
    than 838 million gallons (20 million barrels) of
    fuel annually2
  • Under current regulations, based on an 18-hour
    cycle drivers are required to get 10 hours of
    rest for every 11 hours of driving.
  • Truck drivers usually sleep about 5 hours in a
    24-hour period, not the 10 continuous hours they
    need for optimal performance.

Problems with Current Practices
  • Exhaust emissions can affect driver health and
    performance, can negatively impact highway
    safety.1
  • Federal officials estimate 755 people die each
    year due to drowsy commercial drivers.
  • State Federal Environmental Agencies are
    funding Awareness programs for anti idling at
    truck stop rest areas
  • Thirty four (34) states and Municipalities have
    anti-idling laws in place. 1

Problems Associated with Idling
  • Idling Costs Fuel and Money
  • A typical truck burns 1 gallon of diesel/hr
    idling
  • 6 hours idle time X 300 days a year 1800
    gallons
  • _at_ 3.00 a gallon that is 5400 per truck a year
  • Idling Causes Excessive Engine Wear
  • Idling/ Low oil pressure causes more wear and
    tear on an engine, shortening engine life and
    increases maintenance costs by as much as 2000 a
    year
  • Unnecessary Idling Causes Pollution
  • Particulate Material ( ingested in lungs)
  • Nitrogen Oxides Volatile Organic Compounds
  • Poisonous Carbon Monoxide Carbon dioxide
  • Idling Poses Health Risks to Drivers
  • Drivers are exposed to more vehicle pollution
    while idling than when they are traveling on the
    road
