The current workforce shortage facing the commercial trucking industry increases prices for businesses and consumers. Making commercial trucking jobs more accessible and appealing to the next generation of drivers, the DRIVE-Safe Act empowers their futures, the economy and American businesses without sacrificing safety programs.
The DRIVE-Safe Act provides a training and safety program for young drivers looking to enter the trucking industry, creating a pathway to career success and opening up new channels for shipping. This legislation both fills the driver shortage and offers high-paid, high-skilled training programs that will lead to better and brighter futures.
