Greetings All.
As has been stated, and deserves to be restated, all who have been
hoping for a
place to post trucking related questions and comments owe a salute to
Garry Ricketson for having the perseverance to start this group.
I am a regular, full time driver for a large refrigerated carrier,
have been the
industry for about 20 years. I've driven accident free over 2 million
miles.
In 1992 /93 I served the industry as a member of America's Road Team,
a small
group of drivers chosen to represent the millions of professional
drivers in the
public eye. I made appearances to school groups, business
organizations, and
social clubs to spread the word that trucks and truckers are safe and
productive members of their community.
Again, Welcome to the group!
Best Wishes, and Drive Carefully.
Remember the motto: If You've Got It, A Trucker Brought It!
Jim
It's here...
