      you must not been a trucker! I always had a porta potty in my rig and stopped at big grocery stores to buy enough to last me, ice in the coolers, drinks, towels, blankets, and everything I needed for long hauls trips. and same only what I needed for the LTL local in-state delivery and pick-ups. that's a true truck driver cross-country runs and local runs. truck inspections before during and after and repeat them. safety always first. keep log books correct for chp weight stations and on the roads. safe and legal

      That's why you wear a skirt. Just open the door, squat down as though you're looking for something on the floor of the car, and pee on the 405.

    if you ever see this happening get as far away from the truck as you can because when it explodes it will take you with it unless you are at least a quarter-mile away.

      If youre assuming these drivers are about 20-30 years old, then you're assuming that without knowing exact information like what the exact age of the drivers in these situations are. And you don't know exactly what are the causes of these incidents either. It's pathetic and easy to blame disasters on a whole generation. If everyone did this without backlash, then I would say that your generation failed us.
