Who wants to pay $10 for a gallon on milk?

More and more people are wanting to restrict trucks from using their roads. Like in this article, they believe that trucks pose a risk to other drivers. More times than not, it is not the truck drivers fault but the fault of another motorist not respecting the truck's space. No one wants to be stuck behind a slow truck, but you can't impose on the safe space that is needed to operate a truck. Yes, there are lots of dangerous drivers out there, and some are truck drivers. Truck drivers drive an average of 130,000 miles a year. Compare that to 18,000 for the average driver. The odds of being in an accident are against the truck driver.Remember, if you got it, it came on a truck. Be thankful and show some respect.
