Driving CDL in Alabama
Alabama trucking centers on the I-65 / I-20 / I-10 grid, with Hyundai (Montgomery), Honda (Lincoln), and Mercedes-Benz (Tuscaloosa) automotive plants driving heavy Tier-1 supplier freight on tight just-in-time schedules. The Port of Mobile handles bulk cargo at the southern end. Cost of living runs below the national average, which makes the headline pay math work better than it does in the Northeast. Summer heat and humidity on the Gulf Coast affect equipment and load-securing differently than inland. Alabama has a low graduated state income tax.
