Some drivers land a local gig right after CDL school. Sometimes companies even pay for training. But that’s the exception, not the rule. Even Performance Food stopped doing it—too many problems with inexperience. Early local jobs aren’t typical.

The trucking industry is on the brink — gutted by Driver Inc., cowardly enforcement, and race-to-the-bottom practices.

Ugh. Stuck on the side of the road again with another blowout. It's one of the tires that blew out the day before yesterday. The roadside service company replaced it with a re-tread, which is always a little dodgy.

This time, I may be stuck here for 3 hours or more. 😡

There’s been a record surge in cargo theft in which criminal networks in the U.S. and abroad exploit technology intended to improve supply chain efficiency and use it to steal truckloads of valuable products.

Numerous experts who spoke to CNBC estimate losses are close to $1 billion or more a year.

In other news: I am looking for driving work in Finland again!

If you know anyone who works in or runs a transport company near Uusimaa and needs a driver for international transport, let them know.

I have BCE license, trukkikortti and ammattipatevyyskortti, I speak B1 Finish and fluent English and I have a very diverse experience from whisky tankers to moving movie set vehicles for a Batman movie.

My most recent experience is on the screen below:
