California….. what kind of emission equipment on the truck? Are you vaccinated? Truck disinfected? Trailer under 48 ft? You may have to wait in Nevada for somebody to bring the load to the border.

Those containers need to get trucked out before more can be piled up. Trains are our problem. Wildfires meant trains were delayed or cancelled. There are not near enough trucks to replace rail.

Your President asked OPEC to up production from middle Eastern countries., some that fund terrorism, governments we'd rather not give money to. Yet he cancelled a pipeline, that our even a twat of our leader bought when it was going in the shit can, that could funnel needed oil and energy, from a country that pretty much shares your values and could feed our combined energy needs for decades, once refined in your facilities. Were fucked, by our "leaders" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why start a career in a industry that’s on its way out? your full of shit, driveress trucks will NEVER become the industry standard as they are unreliable, the reason for a shortage of drivers is the bullshit regs one has to follow in the business that and the younger generation being lazy as fuck, these truck driving schools only give enough training for the student to pass a road test and nothing more, they are the worst drivers on the road.

I run the Concrete belt truck, from the plant to the jobsite....that may be able to be done by a computer. Once on the jobsite, there are so many variables, the computer would not be able to compensate. Remember this. If the computer fucks things up an Amazon order, your shit shows up late. if the computer fucks up my belt or pump delivery of the concrete, the computer, driving the truck, could kill us all.
