There Is NO Truck Driver Shortage—Here's the Real Problem
In this episode of Freight Expectations, Craig Fuller, Max, and transportation attorney Matt Leffler challenge one of the trucking industry's biggest myths. They explain why the issue isn't a lack of drivers, but poor compensation, high turnover, and decades of structural changes that have reshaped the freight industry.
The conversation expands into the growing shortage of diesel technicians, why skilled trades may be the safest careers in the age of AI, and whether America has undervalued blue-collar work for too long.
The team also breaks down several major U.S. Supreme Court decisions, including what they could mean for federal agencies, executive power, transportation policy, and the future of regulation.
