I knew the answer when I saw the thread. Someone said supplying parts to truck drivers is where the money is at, which is interesting. I've been told that owning your own vehicle or a small fleet of vehicles, or people work under you is the way to go. Also with smartphones you can bid on jobs and you can cake 100K in 6 months depending on the distance you travel and other stuff....if you own your own truck

ya unc should be calling it quits now anyway. if he was driving for years and years. he should have enough doe saved up to call it a day.

that's what i'm thinking too. he's at retirement age. between retirement savings, social security, medicare, he should have been straight.

The Freightliner Inspiration offers a rather limited version of autonomy: It will take control only on the highway, maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles and staying in its lane. It won’t pass slower vehicles on its own. If the truck encounters a situation it can’t confidently handle, like heavy snow that covers lane lines, it will alert the human that it’s time for him to take over, via beeps and icons in the dashboard. If the driver doesn’t respond within about five seconds, the truck will slow down gradually, then stop.

Actually this will enable more trucks. Other big hurdle is energy. Delivery trucks for example should have BEEN hybrids. All that stop and go would be perfect for it.

Word. How many truck drivers can there be?

This country leads the world in carbon pollution for a reason.

Never knew there were so many truck drivers.

Truck and rail hold the US economy together

My uncle lost his job as a truck driver but he 66 years old so it's hard for him to find more work

I've got nothing but respect for truck drivers. They deal with so much bullshyt on the road.

I don't buy this study. I can't believe there are not truck drivers than say good servers in America.

I know the most job gains since the recession have gone to jobs like servers and bar tenders

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

This is believable. The movement of goods is labor intensive. At one point 1/5th of Americans worked for the railroads in some manner. It's a shame what they have become.

 

[Camile.Bidan]

The data seems to be distorted by the authors. Truck driving requires a special license and schooling. The mere fact makes it impossible, at a first glance, to be the most common job.

My expectation is that cashiering, food service and distribution center workers would be the most common because anyone can do them.

Never knew there were so many truck drivers.

Me either. I have been told by truck drivers that the field has a high turnover rate.
