    Unfortunately, this happens on a fairly regular basis. I live close to the truckstops in Beaverdam, Ohio, and I know it has happened at least once or twice there. People wonder why they want to regulate our health, well there is a good reason...

    My old Team driver said something that hit hard.. If you live in the Truck you will probably die in the truck as well. Just whats ahead i guess, but you can pass away anytime, just spend the most time in truck so it makes sense

    Thats a real downer, on the brighter side at least he was parked. We had a mixer driver here in Vegas a few weeks ago that had a heart attack on the 215 at 55mph, thank god he did not take out anything other than the jersey barrier on the right side of the highway. Unfortunately the truck rolled and caught fire, the guys on scene were not able to save him though. From what I know he had put in to retire about a week from when it happened...
    My heart goes out to the families and everyone that goes on the road.
