the long-haul segment of trucking has a problem, and it's not a driver shortage that has been publicized by the people that want to change the laws and let 18 yr olds and people from other countries be truckers in the USA, it's a persistent, chronic turnover problem.

The average annualized turnover rate from Q3 1996 through Q1 2023 was 92.7% for large truckload carriers earning $30 million or more a year. Smaller fleets under $30 million reported a 77.6% turnover rate.

Carriers report having to reject 90% of applicants out of hand, because the applicants fail to meet at least one of the prerequisites to drive in interstate commerce.
