Virtually every single consumer item that we buy at one time or another has been hauled on a truck. This makes the transportation industry one of the largest industries in the country and the wages for drivers are consistently increasing as a result. The transportation industry currently employs one of every 14 U.S. workers. As the economy grows, the need for drivers continues to increase. According to the American Trucking Association, by the year 2015, the U.S. freight transportation industry will carry 17.5 billion tons of freight, generating a $1.2 trillion in revenue. This represents a 71.2% increase over 2003 revenue of $701.9 billion.
