No load is worth your Life.....

A rose to the three fallen truck drivers in the last 2 days in my home state..I didn't know any of them personally but I understand the needing to go to put food on the table much to well... 

No matter how you spin the numbers Truck Driving is one of the deadliest jobs in the U.S.A. In 2014, one in six on the jobs deaths was a truck driver. In 2017,  840 died on the job - more than 2 a day.. 

Depending on the study - the numbers vary between 70-80%, a CAR was the initial cause of a truck driver crash - the main problem is - almost always, it's the car driver that gets hurt or killed...  

This of course means trucks are at fault 30%of the time too... No excuses for tailgating, speeding and.... It just should NOT happen..

A song that just resonates today here.
