Do you know what would happen if the trucks stopped driving?

For the past few months, truck drivers and dispatchers have been complaining that they get very low prices from brokers.

The situation is alarming because they can no longer cover the costs, which, unlike before, are much higher.

For the last 2-3 months, the price per mile offered by the brokers has been around $2, sometimes just over $1. Oil alone costs drivers about $0.75 per mile!
