In 2009, the FBI established a task force to look at serial killers working as truck drivers. Since then, the bureau has profiled more than 200 possible trucker killers and more than 500 murder victims, many of them prostitutes........200 possible trucker killers?????? well thats comforting...NOT...sad story...gave me goose bumps that they found another missing persons car, off the same exit, in the same manner.......thanks for the post dog-c , good to remind us we need to be more careful...being a driver myself, i tend to trust most drivers...we run team, and i am the night driver...i hate stopping at truck stops to go to the bathroom cuz it takes up so much time, but the rest areas at night are usually so dark...and cant always park close (if you can even get a spot)......it would be good for all of us but esp the women to remember....cant always trust the other drivers, even tho this isnt confirmed, there have been other cases that were drivers....and i know, there are weirdos all over the place....but i have been guilty myself if another driver asks for a hand (sliding etc) to offer help....with CB asleep.....so we need to be more aware ....go with your gut....if someone seems weird or suspicious......get to your truck or inside the building (if possible)....or by ppl....thats the thing...its not always poss......sometimes if i am in a creeped out place...i make him (CB) get up and watch me walk the dogs etc....i know a lot of you women run solo...and thats not possible....get mace if you dont have any...i dont have any, but i am gonna get some...know its not a guarantee....but maybe ......i used to carry a gun back in the early 90's (know its illegal)...but i was too jumpy with it....lol

My thoughts exactly as I was reading it. Best thing we can do as truckers, is to report any kind of violence we see right away, write down plates if something looks really out of place. And you know out of place when you see it.Giggles the Original Thanks this.
