    Just think it takes 23 years to earn that 4.8 months, and 8 years has lapsed so far. In just 15 more years we can get another 4.8 months added on..

    Trucking Insurance Industry Journal The Roemer Report: Trucker Life Expectancy 10-15 Years Less Than Average American Male

    The March 2008 edition of trucking insurance industry journal, The Roemer Report, discusses the results of a new study by Toronto researcher, Dr. Martin Moore-Ede. Dr. Moore-Ede found that truck drivers have a 10- to 15-year lower life expectancy than the average American male who lives to age 76. The Roemer Report notes creative methods of exercise used by some truckers to improve fitness.
    Toledo, OH (PRWEB) March 13, 2008 -- The March 2008 edition of trucking insurance industry journal, The Roemer Report, discusses the results of a new study by Toronto researcher, Dr. Martin Moore-Ede. Dr. Moore-Ede found that truck drivers have a 10- to 15-year lower life expectancy than the average American male who lives to age 76. The study may serve as a wake up call for truckers whose lifestyle, with its stressful conditions, meals on the go, and lack of exercise contributes to the lower life expectancy. Some truckers are incorporating creative ways to exercise in attempts to improve fitness.
