People who are self-employed can deduct their business expenses, including car & truck expenses, in their schedule c when they file their individual income taxes. They also have to pay the full FICA tax, but they do get a credit of half of that amount on their form 1040.

Regards

Daniel

I hope that they are holding out for the expenses that are bound to come from that much driving. It is too easy just to see gas as your expense and then have a car that you think of as new but now has 80,000 miles on it.

They have always been contractors, so nothing changes on that front. However I wouldn’t consider this a good thing for the drivers. This means that they miss out on the protections and benefits that employees have.
