Here's the latest idea for dealing with the commercial truck driver shortage—gigafying it. It's only appropriate the move was dreamed up by two ex-colleagues at Uber Freight, creating Haul.
The partners also believed they could help solve the issue of the driver shortage, which the American Trucking Association estimates as about 80,000 drivers.“There's a shortage but there are a lot of people looking for trucking jobs. Every year about 1.8 million truck drivers looking for jobs,” said Nguyen Le. “There's a mismatch in the entire industry—drivers not being able to stay on the assignment or work they want to do, too far from home, doesn't match their preferences.
“When you think about gigafying anything we have to balance helping trucking companies keep service levels, not compromise on safety around that driver and being the employer of choice,” Henry added. With this new infusion of funds, Henry and Nguyen Le look to grow Haul, expanding its workforce and current service area beyond several markets in California.
