Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg makes recruiting truck drivers a priority as industry reaches a breaking point

The Department of Transportation is pushing new measures to recruit more truck drivers.  According to the American Trucking Associations, the U.S. needs another 80,000 truckers. 

About 72% of goods transported in the U.S. are carried by truckers. But with high turnover rates and dwindling driver supply, the industry has reached a breaking point. 

U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg told CBS News' Errol Barnett that he has made recruiting drivers, keeping trucks on the roads, and making sure shelves are stocked top priorities.
