No, a 1099 form is not inherently bad. A 1099 form is a tax document used to report certain types of income other than wages, salaries, and tips (which are reported on a W-2 form). Some common examples of income reported on 1099 forms include: 1099-MISC - Payments for services performed as an independent contractor.
Most people get into trucking for the freedom it offers. 1099 drivers have more flexibility and ownership over how they perform their services. As a business owner they have more authority to choose the contracts they want to run. 1099 drivers can deduct a significant amount more than W-2 drivers from their taxes.
Passed in 2019, AB-5 implemented a stricter test for classifying workers as contractors in California. It led to thousands of truck drivers being classified as employees entitled to minimum wage, benefits and job protections.

What Is an Independent Contract Truck Driver? Independent contract truck drivers don't necessarily work for a single company. They are independent, as the name implies. Owner-operators can subscribe to load boards to find loads or work with third-party brokers.
Independent truckers are in the same general family as owner-operators or lease contractors, but there are some important differences. Unlike a lease contractor, you'll buy or lease your vehicle from a third party rather than the carrier you contract with.
