In a word crappy pay lousie working conditions piss poor help, blaiming the drivers for any and all issues damage , being late breakdowns and any number of related issues. Too little too late is the word.
Maybe,rail road.
I HAVE THE ANSWER. HOW DO YOU COMPETE IF MEXICAN COMPANIES THAT LIVE IN MEXICO PAY THEIR DRIVERS 20 CENTS A MILE HOW DO YOU COMPETE. THIS IS HAPPENI G IN LAREDO TX. THERE ARE DRIVERS WITH DOUBLE PLATES MEXICAN AND AMERICAN PLATES. LOOK AT THE PLATES ON THE TRUCKS. THEY ALSO CROSS TO THE USA AND PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH A 2 WAY RADIO AND WAIT FOR INSTRUCTIONS OF WHAT TRAILERS TO MOVE IN THE. CITY THE DRIVERS GET PAID 2 DOLLARS AND T0 CENTS. PER MOVEMENT FROM ONE WAREHOUSE TO ANOTHER. SO HOW DO YOU COMPETE. IT IS THE B1 DRIVERS FROM MEXICO. ICE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATING THIS AND THEY ARE NOT
I've only been out here 16 years, never heard of em
This is the gov doings.
They're closing down america for NWO, After that, they will roll out the driver-less trucks.
Never trust your gov…
Everyone is slaves…debt slave…
Let's fight together against them in that final hour
It's gonna end up the way it used to be. Companies want their shit moved are gonna have to have their own trucks and trailers . Companies got their stuff moved and driver's actually had a career !
How about the ELD? Carriers can't run 4000+ miles every week with solo drivers. You shave a 1000-1500 miles off every truck and it will start to hurt your bottom line.
There shouldn't be any over the road drivers anymore Everybody should run local !! Drop and hook in a 150 miles radius all truckers should be at the dinner table with lil johnny kids need there parents at home !!!!

Some of you might doubt it, but policies of this administration has hurt small businesses..
This is obviously a plan to wreak the economy before the next election.
They over reached and now they have trucks, driver's, and trailers but no loads paying what they should.
Truckers for Trump ??????
Lol
Nobody should pull a load an inch for less than $6 -$10/mile. No added fees. Rates should go up from this if fees added.
an I thought I was ready to become a trucker😴🖕🖕🖕
I think what is causing this is insurance to high and to much competition every one is moving freight very cheap
