    Hello. I have been a driver for 5 years now. I always drive teamed. I have driven for SWIFT, Southern Cal (prior to them being bought out), and just recently stepped away from Dot Line. I currently am unable to drive, but my bf...who is also my co-driver, is currently preparing to run solo until I can get back on a truck and drive. I wish I had known of this forum awhile back, it may have helped us. But they do say it is better late than never.

    Thank you for your warm welcomes. As for why I can't drive, most of it was brought on due to the company we were running for. To me, it is more important to take care of my family than to take care of myself and my pushing myself well past my limits and still going...now I have to stop. I am looking at having to take about a year off, and hopefully there is no permanent damage, or else I won't be behind the wheel again. But time will tell.
     
    superpet39 and critters Thank this.
