When I first started in the trucking industry in the early 80s, I was one of the few women behind the wheel of a truck.

As truck drivers, we are the eyes and ears on the road. There are over 3 million drivers on America’s roads: we’re all over the nation. We can see things that the public and even law enforcement cannot. Truck drivers are often overlooked because people are so used to seeing trucks on the road, but since we’re always paying attention and alert, we are able to see everything around us.
