the number of truck driver out there who can barely speak or read English would shock the general public. Trucking companies are so desperate to keep labor costs low they have put the general public in danger.\
As much as I hate the Gordons of the world, I hope this trucking company gets sued into outerspace. Hell, even hold the owners/board criminally responsible for those innocent deaths.

We’re at a crossroads and companies have to decide if they want to pay competent labor or hire slave labor. Part of the problem is our national debt. Pay can be less if we have less debt because goods will cost less.

Tell me how a driverless cargo truck checks in anywhere? Getting the truck from point A to point B on city roads is the easy part. No driver and aint shite getting done when the truck arrives.

Starting in about 10 years, and continuing for about another 10 years, 80% of truck driving jobs will be made obsolete through automation.

It would be a potential issue for certain uneducated worker populations, yes.
But then people are saying that the trucker population is old and there are no young truckers replacing them, so which is it?

this right here.
The company and whomever runs it are directly responsible for hiring unqualified people and should be held liable-civil and criminal

Why are refugees always targeted when a disaster happens but our own people do the exact same thing .
Traffic accidents can never be 100% prevented.
Traffic accidents by illegals can be greatly reduced by not giving their no habla azzes fricking CDLs.
Duh.

54 Percent of Americans have the literacy of a six grader you thank they can comprehend? If a US citizen did the same thing would you deport him, would you think automatically he can read ?

I didn’t know this until a year ago but a large % of our truck drivers are from the Middle East and they have no business driving on our roads

I thank even a sixth grader can comprehend the very simple english of road signs and the contents of a driving manual.

Ya can't deport a citizen, every sixth grader knows that.
Would I think an adult citizen holding a driver's license can read? Yes.

They fail to maintain trucks and assure secure loads too. This is on the owner of the truck. Local delivery trucks are often in shite shape and owner/operators are worse. I stay far away from any truck on the road

U.S. citizens have a right to be here. Illegals do not.
Any wrecks illegals cause would not have happened if they were not here.

If he was an illegal German , Swiss , Australian , South African would you say the same thing ? They are in the country illegal they just keep a low profile . They don’t cross the southern border they just fly in and over stay for years without any hassle for anyone , ICE, Immigration, police .
