Since its formation in July 1995, TMA has provided a forum within which member companies can work together for common objectives and share information on issues that impact their products. TMA continuously identifies and monitors North American truck safety and environmental issues and potential regulations, facilitates industry-government dialogue and cooperative research, and coordinates industry responses to proposed rulemaking.

The expertise represented by its membership has earned TMA a reputation as the voice of the truck manufacturing industry. As such, TMA works cooperatively with federal, state, provincial, and local regulatory and elected officials to ensure that safety standards and regulations are technologically feasible, cost-effective, and provide safety and environmental benefits.
