truck convoy
Haulers traveling together
A truck convoy is a group of trucks traveling together in formation, often for efficiency, safety, or coordinated delivery.
Military convoys move supplies through hostile territory.
Commercial convoys may form organically on highways, with drivers communicating via CB radio.
The term gained cultural resonance in the 1970s trucking craze: a convoy of eighteen-wheelers rolling down the interstate.
