Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA)

The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) is a national organization that represents the interests of independent truck drivers and small trucking businesses in the United States. Founded in 1973, OOIDA advocates for policies that support owner-operators, such as fair regulations, reasonable insurance costs, and improved working conditions. They provide resources, education, and support to help drivers navigate the trucking industry. By uniting truckers, OOIDA aims to strengthen their voice in discussions with government agencies and industry stakeholders, ensuring that the concerns of small operators are heard and addressed.
