    "Want to know what trucking is all about? The author mentions this was done a few years ago for a class project, not much has changed. This video is really well done and guides the viewer from the history of trucking regulations to the present day problems with good how and why explanations. And compares truckers to some other workers. It's 18 minutes, but worth the time. By a college student / trucker." Wayne Weisser (Life on the Road.com)

    I really appreciate the things Wayne said about my video and would like for you all to take a look if you have time.

    thanks,
    not trying to be a downer because I believe the folks with the answers to the problems presented in the video are in these forums and driving up and down the roads.
    Thanks again for watching.

    No Honestly, was good! I wish you could use this as a trailer at the movie theaters also, so all the 4-whlrs could see it! If they had any Idea what they would have or have not without truck drivers. Not to mention the big
    scammin CO's that keep the drivers at the poverty level, so they will quit before they can make better money and then next batch comes in to work
    for peanuts its an industry wide SCAM, they love the 100% plus turnover rate keeps their operating costs low. I for one appreciate what your doing!
