I started on 28K but realized too late that I could've negotiated higher, but I was so new back then. Met a few drivers saying they earned around 35K to 40K upon starting.

It depends on the size of the company. It ranges between $30k-$96k.

It depends also on the drivers' skills and how big the truck is. The starting should be around $40k.
