TRUCKERS SHORTAGE * USA

* New York - 'Without trucks, man, we're doomed'

-- Firms in Capital region of New York struggle to cope with driver shortage... Driving a truck is a good way to earn a living, but the living isn’t always good on the road... The reality of life along the interstate is a leading reason for a growing shortage of longhaul truck drivers, even as trucking firms maintain near-continual recruitment campaigns and offer lucrative incentives to attract and retain drivers... Starting wages are often more than $1,000 a week, and longhaul drivers with a high school diploma and a few years’ experience can earn $70,000 or more annually... Weighing against this is the time away from family, the endless roadside meals and the sleeping in the back of the truck...
