Truck Drivers Are About to Be in High Demand—Here’s Why

What It Means for the Industry

The trucking industry is facing a major shift. California is preparing to revoke 17,000 commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) after a federal review uncovered serious issues in how those licenses were issued. Many of these licenses didn’t meet federal safety and compliance standards, meaning thousands of drivers will soon be off the road.
