The beginning of 2022 saw the end of FleetOwner's Five Good Things blog—and in autumn, its rebirth as every week we bring uplifting trucking industry news to our readers. Five Good Things was launched in March 2020 at the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic to shine some light on some otherwise dark times. In February, the blog's creator, former FleetOwner Digital Editor Catharine Conway, left us for new horizons, but we decided to restart the blog in September because there is always cause to celebrate in trucking. No matter what economic headwinds people face, in an industry as full of charity and goodwill as this, there will never be a dearth of good news.
Here's a look at the top 10 editions of Five Good Things in 2022.

The calendar says there's a little more than a week until Halloween, and already fleets and families are going full-bore into the holidays. But let's slow down—it's Friday and only a month until Thanksgiving, after all—and take stock of a lot of good that's being done by trucking for America. Here, we shine a spotlight on a trucker who has picked up the violin, a New York state carrier that helped build an all-inclusive playground, a dietary intervention program for drivers, and more.
