Good Read

Interesting read. Seems pretty dead on.

It's a good read. The last paragraph mentions the higher risk we take but stops short of telling the reader that truck drivers live 16 years less than non-truck drivers.

 

Do you have a source for that stat?

 

Cemeteries across North America.

 

60% of that joke was funny.

Nice!!

I've come across that number many times when doing my research. 61 is the average age of an (North?) American truckdriver and 77 is the average of non truck-drivers. Some perspective. http://www.tractortrailer.ca/16-years-make-them-good-ones/
