Independent truckers have it really rough, especially right now.
I knew a lot of truckers before I retired because I ran a business that depended on trucking. I got to know some of them fairly well.
The economic pressure on them is incredible, and it seems they’re always on the brink of not making it.
I’m still plugged into some of my old logistics networks and I see shipping rates have plunged because of lack of demand.
That’s awful for independent truckers.
