What is an OTR?

OTR drivers, or Over-The-Road drivers, are professional truck drivers who transport goods over long distances, often crossing state lines and sometimes traveling coast-to-coast. They spend extended periods on the road, usually several days or even weeks at a time, delivering freight between cities, regions, or even countries. OTR drivers play a crucial role in the supply chain by ensuring that products are delivered safely and efficiently across long distances. This job often requires a commercial driver's license (CDL) and a willingness to be away from home for extended periods.
