May 27, 2021—The Collision Industry Electronic Commerce Association announced yesterday it has a new member, Texas-based On the Road Garage.
According to a CIECA press release, On the Road Garage is "a tech focused collision repair business that focuses on electromechanical repair and calibration services for both conventional and electric vehicles, while protecting the environment."
With its sister company, On the Road Lending, the collision repairer is part of the Vehicle Identity Working Group for the Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative, the press release says.
