Showing Original Post only (View all)Truck drivers are getting worn down. [View all]
I've been non stop in the SW region of the US hauling Walmart trailers exclusively from their distribution center outside of Barstow to the Walmart's in Las Vegas and the Pahrump, NV. trying to keep the food and goods flowing.
I'm now on my 34 hour reset because I ran out of service hours, so I finally get a break and my truck is due for it's B service.
Thank you everyone for your support for us truckers in these trying times.
