                   IRU

                   IRU,  acrónimo  en  inglés  para  la  Unión  Internacional  de  Transporte  por  Carretera,  es  una
            organización mundial de transporte carretero que representa los intereses de los operadores de
            camiones  (así  como  los  intereses  de  los  operadores  de  autobuses,  autocares  y  taxis)  para  el

            movimiento de personas y mercancías por carretera.

                   La IRU participa activamente en la facilitación del comercio para el transporte por carretera
            y busca armonizar, tanto como sea posible, toda la legislación que rige actualmente el transporte
            carretero, a fin de garantizar la interoperabilidad, evitar la duplicación y la confusión innecesaria
            que ocasiona costosos retrasos, infracciones a la ley y multas.
