Best Online Communities for Female Truck Drivers

Fellow women truck drivers are a great resource if you’re new to the transportation industry or still considering the career. With women making up just over 10% of all truck drivers in the United States,, using online resources to connect with other female drivers may be more effective than just trying to make friends at truck stops.

Truck driving is still very much a “boys club''. And men don’t always face the same challenges in the transportation industry that women do. Having a robust community of other women in the industry can be invaluable. You’ll be able to ask questions of veteran women drivers, get tips, and make friends with other women in your industry. You may even find a mentor who can help guide you through advancing your career or offer advice if you’re facing difficulties maintaining personal relationships while on the road.
