This raise craze ya’ll are on is tge same as dispatchers blowing smoke up ones ass! Thanks to ELDs the driver previously making 2600 miles a week is now at 2100/week thanks to this fake safety ELD craze ya’ll are on! So yes in order to keep drivers bringing home a normal wage the rates must go up or the driver shortage will double by next July! Side note, this so called ELD safety feature has done nothing for me but make me a more aggressive driver when time stares me in the face! Safety you say?? My ass it is! Its just the big boys can’t find willing and able drivers, so the ELDs are only meant to even the playing field from a compettitive stand point!
