Try slowing down.
Not always possible. In commercial trucking time is money. If you miss your delivery or pickup time it can cost you. And there's a limit on the number of hours you're allowed to be on the road.

As for me, I've never used any kind of ant-gelling additive and I've never had fuel gel on me. I do tend to run commercial B20, winterized from October to the end of April (I think that's what it says on the pump) for a variety of reasons, lubricity being the only one directly related to the functioning of the fuel system.
