1 November 2007 02:51 | | | No I haven't. It seems completely redundant, because all trucking is obviously done over the roads... 
Maybe it just means "overland shipping," i.e. not by sea or air?  | | |
1 November 2007 03:04 | | | Well whaddaya know! I asked Lord Google about it, and apparently it's so common that they even have an abbreviation for it: OTR trucking!

My goodness -- even IanMegill2 doesn't know everything!  | | |
1 November 2007 12:11 | | | So what does it mean? Is it just trucking? | | |
1 November 2007 12:18 | | | Aha! I found a website with definitive answers! Apparently it's long-distance or long-haul trucking. | | |
