women in trucking

Over-the-road truck drivers are still mostly comprised of men. However, times are changing, and truck driving jobs for women are on the rise. As the demand for truck drivers increases, the industry is committed to having women to fill hiring needs. According to the American Trucking Association (ATA), 6% of truck drivers are women. At Knight Transportation, 9.9% of our Driver Associates are women, which’s 65% more than other trucking companies! If you're a woman considering a job as a trucker, now is a great time to enter the transportation industry.
