What’s next in trucking?

Eventually. But things were too good for too long. It seemed like for 10 years or so anyone could go buy a truck and get any rate they wanted.

 

Man.......lol, you ain't been in the industry long, but you already sound like many drivers who've been at it 20 or 30 years.

 

Bro, it’s the same thing at the top. If you want out you are better off saving up for your own truck and then trying to find your own customers or do the load board thing. Or you move on from the industry like I did.

I felt the same way 6 years ago when I topped out as a company driver making it to walmart. It’s kind of pathetic when you really think about it. It will honestly never change because you could get 200 drivers in a room and maybe 3 of them could agree on the same thing. FMCSA will push all this #### down these carriers throats and they all gobble it up like a lot lizard cmooooooon back!!

 

When they finally get the driverless trucks on the road, anyone who isn’t LTL, specialized, food and beverage…etc, will lose their jobs

 

When the driverless trucks come does that mean no office people too. It would be reasonable to think that’s on the horizon. I mean driverless trucks and computers communicate arrival and pickup times and adjust accordingly. Same goes for lumpers won’t need them either, heck that’s some places now isn’t it?
You’d think office or dock would be first to humanless seeing as in the truck a human is needed there to be blamed for anything.
