Fact is they do not have enough drivers due to the low pay.
The entire trucking industry is desparate for qualified, drug tested drivers. That said, even higher pay, is going to have trouble attracting the younger generation. It's a tough life for long haul drivers, sort of like being deployed in the military. Difficult to sustain a family, etc.
It can be a great career particularly for ex-military.
This has been a very informative thread. Sometimes I wonder if this model isn't similr to Uber. I question what the actual pay rate is with them.
Good luck.
