Team driving means two CDL-A drivers share one truck and take turns so the truck keeps moving almost around the clock; solo driving means one driver runs the truck within their own hours-of-service limits. Teams cover more miles per week, solos get the cab to themselves.
How team driving works
In a team, one driver drives while the other rests in the sleeper berth. Because federal hours-of-service rules limit each driver's daily driving time, sharing the truck lets a team keep freight moving far longer each day than one driver can.
That is why long-haul lanes such as Nevada to Georgia are a natural fit for teams: the load gets there faster, and the truck earns miles while one driver sleeps.
How solo driving works
A solo driver runs the truck alone, plans their own stops and keeps their own schedule inside the hours-of-service limits. Solo runs are often regional or dedicated, which can make home time more predictable.
Side-by-side
- Miles: teams cover more miles per week because the truck rarely stops.
- Space: solo drivers have the cab to themselves; teams share it.
- Partner: teams need someone you trust and get along with for long stretches.
- Run type: teams suit long OTR lanes; solos often run regional or dedicated freight.
