One of the huge contributing factors to shortages in California is the far left legislation AB5 which outlawed most contractors requiring them to be reclassified as employees. Most truck drivers own their own rig and are contracted on a per job basis. The far left law pushed by unions has now made that model illegal and so most of them just stopped taking routes to and from California.
That is why co trainers are piling up in ports with no trucks to take them any where. I swear everything leftists touch turns to shit.
