  • America’s Trucking Industry Is in Deep Trouble

    America’s Trucking Industry Is in Deep Trouble
    Nov 30 2025
    The source provides a comprehensive analysis of the "perfect storm" currently battering the American trucking sector, which serves as the economic backbone for United States commerce. The industry is trapped in a severe and prolonged freight recession, marked by plummeting spot rates, excessive carrier capacity, and a resulting surge in bankruptcies and job losses. Exacerbating these financial pressures are new trade tariffs, which severely restrict critical cross-border freight volumes and inflate the cost of necessary Class 8 trucks and components. Simultaneously, the accelerating adoption of AI and automation promises efficiency gains but generates considerable fear of massive workforce displacement among the 3.58 million professional drivers. Ultimately, the episode warns that without policy pivots, such as tariff relief, and internal investment in technological adaptation, this vital industry faces years of stagnation and potential systemic fracturing.
