柴油价格飙升引发美国货运业危机。在8月末至9月初的短短30天内，共有16家货运公司申请破产保护，其中4家公司总部位于德州1。这些破产申请包括第7章和第11章两种类型1。一家佛罗里达州的亚马逊配送承包商也在9月申请了破产保护1。
高企的燃油成本对行业造成了直接冲击。根据TheStreet.com联合主编Daniel Kline的分析，"在货运业，油价蚕食利润率，激烈竞争使小型运营商难以将成本转嫁给客户"1。为应对这一危机，德州州长Abbott宣布全州进入灾难状态，以放宽公路上使用无税柴油的限制1。
A surge in diesel prices has forced 16 trucking companies to seek bankruptcy protection in a span of 30 days, with filings concentrated at the end of August and beginning of September1. Four of the affected carriers were headquartered in Texas, while one Amazon delivery contractor based in Florida also filed for Chapter 11 protection during the same period1.
The steep rise in fuel costs has significantly eroded profit margins across the trucking sector, leaving smaller operators particularly vulnerable1. According to Daniel Kline, co-editor of TheStreet.com, "In the trucking industry, oil prices eat into profit margins, and intense competition makes it difficult for small operators to pass costs on to customers"1. In response to the crisis, Texas Governor Abbott declared a statewide disaster to relax restrictions on the use of tax-exempt diesel on public roads1.
