Great job, you are showing so many aspects of driving that people don't think about, like driving time, backing into slots, helping others, how you have to bobtail to get empties, to lot lizards. As a female driver I experienced both discrimination and super nice male drivers. Fond memories, but glad to be retired now.

Truck driver here, as long as the gun is in the truck you can travel with it statewide without a license while also being properly stored, only exception is places like military bases and even if you have a license to carry it still applies for bases. It's when you take it out with you when it becomes a different story but yeah no one's telling me I can't carry with BLM about ready to go nuts because I drive a cotton truck and it's red so I'm a huge Target and I ain't going down as a helpless victim.

Wow, the first thing I would own is a CB radio. I enjoyed not only listening and talking to other drivers but it is a very useful tool. Other drivers will inform others of the road conditions up ahead or even an accident that has the interstate shutdown, so you can find another route or find a spot to park and wait for the road conditions to change for the better. Take full advantage of the CB radio, it pays for it self.

I have been driving for 17 years always wear shorts and tennis shoes. I drive for a living and didn't know shorts and tennis shoes make it to where you can't drive. It's trucking not runway modeling. Just be comfortable and keep the rubber side down nice backing

Friends dad driver. When 11 or 12 we'd go with him on shorter trip like Knoxville to Ohio. Took fridge trailer with meat from slaughterhouse to Kelly canning plant. Return trip canned meat to supply house in Knoxville. He always stayed 2 or3 days before return "waiting on load". Spent them in little bar getting drink with girl friend while we played pin ball and pretty much ran amock. Made us swear not to tell. Guess I finally did!

As a truck driver all company drivers are not allowed to carry, if they're caught their automatically fired that's just their company policies. But owner operators are allowed to do whatever they want to do
