Don’t forget to include grocery stock-boys and stock-girls in this small pantheon of heros.

During WWII my father drove a bus. He was considered an essential worker. He drove soldiers from Missouri to Oklahoma and back. He drove a total of 15 years. He was a hero for a lot of reasons and this is part of his story.

All a truck driver really wants is for you to stop pulling in so close in front of them. They need room for safe stopping.

Interesting that this is in The Toledo, Ohio Blade. The truckers I know hate driving through Ohio. The Ohio State Troopers target truckers and set up speed traps on the interstates.

I-70 between the Indiana state Line and I-75 is a notorious speed trap zone for truck drivers.

Trucking is the most difficult job there is. Long hours on the road, not seeing your family for long periods, fighting the weather, stupid drivers, and it ruins your health. As a retired driver, it’s a very hard job.
