Below is a portion of the piece, which neatly exemplifies the controversial element:
OTR T/T truck drivers must be at the top of their game all the time. They MUST be alert, aware of their surroundings and not just in control of their own skills, but also cautious of other drivers on the road. They have to play defense 100% of the time. Watching out for pedestrians not paying attention because they are watching someone else or playing on their phone. Watching for animals (deer, dogs, elk etc) running out onto the road, not knowing it could mean their demise. Aware of motorcyclists, 4 wheeled vehicles, other T/T and commercial vehicles using the same roadway but not necessarily following the same driving standards.
A spokesperson for Decker Truck Line, Jesse Butler, says “Of course Drive Decker never sets out to intentionally upset anybody. The aim of our articles is first and foremost to create awareness around the need for the number of qualified truck drivers to increase but to do so, we must do our part to take care of them financially as they do their part in taking care of us. It is critical, however, that we stay dedicated to our true voice.”
Although our “Driver Shortage Struggles Across Transportation Industry Affecting Everyone” might unsettle People who work within the transportation industry. Trucking companies, business owners who are struggling to find qualified drivers in an industry with a growing demand but not enough people entering the workforce as truck drivers.
