If you don't mind me asking, what made you switch from software development to transportation?

I got laid off from my job with a big silicon valley company and was just too sick of the whole industry to even try getting another coding job. I randomly bought a used school bus to convert into a motor home, and when I got to the point where I needed to get another job to avoid paying $1000 a month for shitty health insurance, it turned out owning and driving a school bus made me eminently qualified to be a school bus driver. I really love doing it - it of course doesn't pay what programming pays, but I get the middle of my days off to go on long bike rides, and little kids aren't that awful to be around.
