    So i'm pretty sure i'm going to be a trucker after school is up, but i am wondering if time will harm my chances of being one in like 6 years? I hope trucking wont disappear lol. The world needs truckers so i highly doubt it would, but i would like other opinions.

    Starting next year, everyone will buy everything from Amazon and will be delivered to your door via drones!

    Too many rules and liabilities for it to go auto trucks atleast 20 years. Look we're suppose to be in flying cars already. That was said 20-30 years ago.

    They promised us jet packs.

    No, trucking will change, but if you're adept to a changing world, you'll be fine.

    Bernie Sanders is planning on building a railroad to every Walmart, dollar general, CVS, etc to take trucks off the road so maybe be an engineer.

    Because having to pass slow moving trucks is more of a burden than having to cross 80 newly built train tracks on your way to work. God that guys a moron.

    Amazon has been building DC's across the country. And has plans to buy their own trailers. I don't know what their drone plans are. Keeping in mind that they can only service so much of the country. Which isn't much at all.
