US Trucking Schools: 44% Fail Federal Compliance Review
According to the Transportation Department, nearly 44% of U.S. truck driving schools face closure due to non-compliance with government training requirements. The department plans to revoke the accreditation of approximately 3,000 schools within 30 days and has issued warnings to an additional 4,500. This action is part of a larger effort to ensure qualified drivers, prompted by safety concerns following a fatal accident involving an unauthorized driver. While industry groups support stricter standards, some immigrant driver groups claim they are being unfairly targeted, with California also revoking thousands of licenses due to improper issuance.
