## TCP Survey Finds Carriers Willing To Support Younger Drivers

Results from Transport Capital Partners' (TCP) Fourth Quarter 2012 Business Expectations found that over eighty percent of carriers surveyed are willing to support allowing younger, properly trained drivers to enter the driving pool. With an increase in driver turnover to over one-hundred percent in the third quarter of 2012, carriers are looking for new ways to attract quality, long-term drivers.

Past surveys have indicated that pay must go up to significantly higher levels over the long-term. As other sectors increase employment opportunities, many drivers will leave for more time at home. Driver attraction and retention will continue to be an important issue for carriers.

Regardless of how carriers find drivers, they all acknowledge they are going to have to pay them more. Almost 80 percent of carriers expect that wages will increase in the next year.
