Team driving
Team driving refers to a two-person driving arrangement often used in long-haul trucking. In this setup, two drivers share the responsibilities of operating the vehicle, allowing one to rest while the other drives. This method increases efficiency and reduces delivery times since the truck can be on the road for longer periods without long breaks. Team driving also helps prevent driver fatigue, enhancing safety. Typically, drivers communicate through a truck's communication system and take turns resting in a sleeper cab, ensuring they remain well-rested and alert during their journey.
