Help stop human trafficking

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)  launched its new human trafficking awareness campaign, Your Roads, Their Freedom, this week. The campaign seeks to raise awareness of human trafficking in the commercial motor vehicle (CMV) industry. This effort aims to educate and empower CMV drivers and other transportation-industry employees to recognize the signs of human trafficking and report the crime to authorities.

The campaign seeks to give the nation’s 8.7 million commercial motor vehicle drivers important information to help identify and report suspected human trafficking.
