Trucking is one part of a multifaceted logistical industry that is global in reach and integrated to the extent few can imagine. Air freight, container ships, rail, they all play a part in working together in ways few people appreciate and for the most part are unaware of. The overarching taskmaster for all these carriers is the clock which is forever pushing the limits of their capabilities. Disruptions caused by war,weather, broken treaties, pandemics, you name it - any one of these can cause everyone's best laid time schedule to crumble.
