Trucking Industry Experiences Labor Shortage

TURLOCK, CA - AUGUST 03: Truck driving instructor Dan Martin (L) directs student Ron Prasad as he manuevers a truck while training at the Western Trucking School August 3, 2005 in Turlock, California. According to the American Trucking Association, the trucking industry is currently facing a shortage of more than 20,000 drivers, a number that is expected to grow to over 100,000 in the next 10 years as interest in trucking jobs wanes mostly due to low pay and the extended time away from home. Eighty-five percent of all goods in the United States are moved by trucks. (Photo by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
