Now, you're thinking what is it I don't know already. Lets talk about survival. Do you know the Interstate system is the backbone of the Virginia economy? I'm in on the ground floor...these facts are cards in my hands...I haul in the great state of Virginia.I'm telling you all this to illustrate a point(If you can't beat them join them.). Every year $165 billion in goods are shipped from sites in Virginia and another $199 billion in goods are shipped to sites in Virginia mostly by us truckers.This information is your business. Why? Because the state's Interstate Highway System saves the average Virginia resident $2,957 per year. Plus, $22.1 billion statewide...in reduced accident costs such as medical expenses and lost productivity, the value of saved time and fuel, and reduced apparel,food,housing and transportation cost.Would you like to know why the traffic levels are increasing? To hit the nail on the head; it's because the travel growth is out pacing the addition of new lanes.If you can't beat them join them...here is an enticing tidbit. Virginia's Interstate system annually recuces statewide motor fuel consumption by 332 million gallons. Happy Motoring!
