I’ve heard they are hiring just about anyone with a pulse.
Definitely have noticed a sharp decline in professionalism. Often have seen them swerving out of the lines (on their phones or impaired?), cruising in the fast lane, cutting people off, aggressive driving, etc.
Been that way a while now.
Remember when they were called "Knights of the Road"?
Oh these are well known in the industry as Towel/Rag head drivers. Just about everyone of those are from India or the middle east and the scourge of the profession. Start watching the trucking company names, or check them out as they go by.
“All over the road” is their normal driving mode. You can spot them from a mile away. The real drivers hate them because of their extremely dangerous driving habits. And they drive like this completely sober...
