The driving public often has mistaken ideas about truckers. One lady I spoke to had the idea that truckers were like chain swinging, bristle-bearded “gangsta” thugs. She no doubt misread the strength, and the casual, often disheveled, look of the hard working driver who has just driven several thousand grueling miles for being a thug. The movies have contributed to that image, as well. While truckers are certainly tough, they are not necessarily bullies. There is a friend to truckers who has often been misread as well. This friend is actually looking out for you all the time, and not just on the road. He’s big, but not a bully and he can help you get to your final destination safely and happily. Do you wonder who this friend is? Comment here.
