DocStop is an organization that aims to provide targeted and easily accessible medical care for professional truck drivers. Its locations include information on how to get there, parking options, and how to contact medical professionals.

The DocStop locations in the TruckFly contain detailed information on how to get there, parking options and how to contact the respective doctor. Because one thing is clear: physical health is a core criterion for safe and careful driving – and thus for overall road safety.

TruckFly already provides practical information for truck drivers’ daily work, including the best fuel, food, parking, and rest areas. It also provides information on truck washing and service facilities as well as loading conditions at logistics hubs.

The app is available in 21 languages and has over 75,000 rated locations, including 37,000 parking areas, 22,000 fuel stations, and 11,000 restaurants. It has been downloaded more than 700,000 times and used by around 120,000 drivers per month.

The TruckFly team updates the app’s information daily. It shares information published by restaurants, rest areas, or fuel station operators on social media to be shared throughout the community.

Operators are also encouraged to regularly update their information on the truckfly.com website. Since the beginning of 2020, over 10,000 operators have updated their online information.
