No, you would not qualify to claim meal expenses.
In order to qualify to claim meal expenses as a truck driver you would need to be traveling away from home for 'substantially longer' than the length of a normal workday and you would need to be a self-employed driver. Drivers employed and receiving a W-2 are no longer eligible to claim per diem expenses for meals or travel due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
