According to the Labor Department, 65% of the 17 billion tons of freight in the United States was moved by truck in 2017. Because of this, any shortage of drivers is a concern.
Retirements are a major concern for the trucking industry. Statistics from the Labor Department show people working as commercial truck drivers are 48-years-old on avereage. Three of four commercial drivers on the road are over 40. People aged 20 to 30 make up only 8% of drivers. The concern is when older drivers age into retirement, there will not be experienced truckers in the pipeline to replace them.
