1.8 Million Heavy & Tractor-Trailer Drivers

880,710 For-Hire Trucking Heavy & Tractor-Trailer Drivers

Based on government data, ATA estimates that there are roughly 500,000 - 600,000 OTR for- hire TL drivers.

The driver shortage is primarily an over-the-road for-hire truckload issue. So how many drivers are in that space?

WHAT CAN BE DONE?

  • Drivers between 18 and 21 years old
  • Shippers/receivers need to treat drivers better
  • Improve driver efficiency/driving time – Reduce

driver waiting times to increase driver miles

  • 8,500/month to 9,000 = 5.9%
  • 8,500/month to 9,500 = 11.8%
  • More female drivers
