If you spend any time on the interstate, you’re used to seeing semi trucks of all shapes and sizes, but have you ever really thought about where those drivers were going? While you might think they’re all destined for a big box retailer in some major city across state lines, that isn’t always the case.
In fact, according to the United States’ Bureau of Transportation Statistics, 75% of American communities are 100% dependent on trucks for delivery of goods and services to their cities. Think about that for a minute. If it weren’t for America’s hardworking truckers, three-fourths of the country wouldn’t have access to necessary food, water, or medical supplies.
With all the excitement surrounding automation and the future of trucking, it’s easy to forget that actual humans are still responsible for transporting goods and resources. However, that won’t be changing anytime soon. The country is actually facing a trucker shortage.
