Nearly 9,000 truck schools face closure in U.S.

Nearly 9,000 truck driving schools — about 44% nationwide — could be forced to close after a U.S. Transportation Department review found many are not meeting federal requirements. The move comes amid safety concerns, including a recent incident in Florida where an illegal immigrant with a CDL license was involved in a crash that killed three people. Officials say stricter enforcement aims to prevent future tragedies.
