Description
"The life of a trucker is a profoundly random business. Of all the workers who make their living as professional travelers the trucker's life is the least predictable. This book shares stories of weird driving partners, speeding truckers and the cops that chased them, heroin addicts, prostitutes, and bad breakdowns. There are stories of mountain crashes when truckers lost their brakes, their loads, and sometimes their lives. There are plenty of stories about snow and ice. There is a story about getting my truck stuck under a bridge in Chicago. There are stories of outlaw truckers, grossly overweight, who had to 'run the scales.' And I will never forget the day I rolled a load of cedar roofing shakes. Yes, it is all here, everything you could imagine and even more than that ... Truckers don't have to create fantasies to keep themselves entertained on the road. All they have to do is look out the front window of their rig and they will see it all. Maybe I haven't seen it all, but believe me, I've seen enough. These stories are what this book is all about - my life as a trucker."--Amazon.
