I dont use a cb radio. I do use a trucker gps and that's about it. I wear headphones for calls as truckers are not allowed to have a cellphone in their hands while driving. Instant firing if caught.

you can make 50k/yr working at bucees and be home every night
go work at Bucees. My first year I made 72k, last year I made 91k. You are gone more but for me it's worth it. A friend of mine is a trainer for our company because new drivers have to take 3 weeks of training with a experienced driver first before they go on their own. That said friend makes 110k. He is home Mondays/Wednesdays/every weekend.

There is no shortage of drivers. There’s more trucks on the road than ever.

There is a shortage of good truck drivers.

Usually takes a very long time
that is exactly why because many truck are governed at different speeds. Some drivers have no tact and don't care how long it takes to pass another trucker. It even annoys other truck drivers.

Ftr, the speeding truckers are mostly all owner operators. They have no governor. Company's based on their rating with their insurance will be a certain top speed that is allowed. We have a program that once you hit a million miles(roughly 7/8 yrs) with no accidents your governor is set to 68 with Top cruise speed of 70. The notion there is that if you drive safely for a million miles, they will trust you going 70 safely.

Where are the worst drivers you've encountered and why do you think it is Baton Rouge?

When two trucks that are speed limited get beside each other.. and there are 500 vehicles waiting to pass.. why does the speed limited truck in the right lane refuse to back off and let the truck in the left lane get ahead?

Is it fun to be that big of a dick?
some truckers won't budge, I would. I mean you lose what 30 seconds to let truck get ahead. In the 11 hr driving time clock some drivers are just stupid. I wouldn't fault the right lane guy as much as the left lane guy just decided to back traffic up 30 cars waiting for the pass to finish for a 1mph difference. I just accept the fate and let my truck do the work it will back me off to their speed at least 350ft behind them or about 3.5 seconds. I feel like a nationwide law should be in place to make all trucks 1 speed. 70mph on cruise control and 68 on foot of course where that limit is allowed. Jmo. It would eliminate alot of these kinds of slow downs

Has there been an influx of recent immigrant drivers that are barely comprehend English and don't understand how things are done - like not using restrooms and trashcans?

Constantly see videos of the literal shite left at truck stops by drivers....

"Bonehead Truckers" on YT primarily
im don't notice this type of waste because like I said I know my routed and which Love's Truck stops I'll stay at. Most all loves are nice and clean. Keep their properties clean. To answer about foreigners. You would be amazed how many are now driving a semi. I have said many times that state police need check stops everywhere and just ask for their cdl. If they got it then good. My suspicion is that many are not driving qualified.
