Working Conditions

Truck Drivers encounter a huge responsibility: they must drive heavy, expensive trucks. Load deliveries keep drivers away from home for long periods of time. There are factors such as noise, vibration, poor weather conditions or heavy traffic that may cause mental and physical stress for the driver. Several improvements have been made in ventilation, equipment for seeing, and seating, to guarantee better driving conditions and safer trips.

Drivers in the local area usually work more steady hours than long distance truck drivers. However, they face up the risk of driving such big trucks through alleys and narrow streets. Truck Drivers must follow all rules and traffic laws for driving safely.
