Trucking & LogisticsScheduling & Dispatch4HighOwner-Operator Driver$ implied

Truck drivers face unfair detention fees when loading/unloading takes longer than scheduled, with no reciprocal penalty for the facility's delays.

No standardized system to track detention time and automatically apply reciprocal penalties when the shipper/receiver causes delays, leading to financial loss for drivers.
