Truckers have been destined to make sure that their careers are rock solid. But of course, the government doesn’t quite believe in it much themselves because they aren’t trying to service the common man and his interests.

This could not be more obvious than in how the misclassification of trucking contractors are getting so easily blurred with the way people outside of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Association and the Owner-Operator Independent Driver Association rattle off multiple titles. It’s totally ridiculous on how the whole of the United States isn’t respecting the carriers and the truckers enough.

There have been instances where the business has lost their contracts to various competitors that are utilizing the Driver Inc. model. This type of fraudulence has risen all through the tough freight market which has actually given a negative impact upon traditional fleets.

Of course, there has been much distinguishment of how there’s been a varied amount of price-setting in the environment where he’s relatively troublesome for the business, all while it loses business repetitively. Representatives from Canadian organizations believe that the contemptuous Driver Inc. fleets are only able to save just about 30% on labor costs which can circumventing payroll taxes through illegally classifying independent contractors out of company drivers.

The move is clearly straightforward but the government isn’t quite as interested to enforce the law.

A big issue from the truckers is that there’s barely any progress occurring in regulators letting the empty trailers move from one area to another in terms of the carriers’ progress. It all has to do with a varied amount of economic outlook for carriers.

As it turns out there had been way too much exposure coming to the spot market, showed off freight volume and rate declines. All while there had been a sudden turnaround for the whole industry. Consider as well, the pace of bankruptcy in the United States, and you’ll be able to see the results of what happens.

Also, the electric push that the United States have been making the trucking industry take is totally unrealistic. Just look at the California Air Resources Board! CARB is totally convinced that there’s no way to reintegrate the technology and as it turns out, the maintenance isn’t even there yet. There’s just way too many issues and challenges in the way. Technology is far away from getting 60% reduced in a short order. It’s all going to be tough in 2024.
