    It's NOT worth risking one's life to attach one's self to the back of a truck going down the highway at God knows how many miles per hour. HOLY MOSES!

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead.

    Over the mountains, through the woods, into the valleys, coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - truck drivers can and do go anywhere and everywhere, every day, every night, all year round.

    Haven’t seen this much the century, but up around New York City a game the kids played all the time specially real
    early mornings on the way into market in the Bronx either that or grabbing the side of it on a bicycle or rollerskates. They were basically nuts

    This was a thing when I was growing up too, except more with UPS package vans and transit busses.

    Back in the 80’s kids around here on skateboards or roller skates would do it with pick up trucks. There thought was they could pull themselves in the bed when the speed got to rough to hang on the back. Never worked well if pickup had loud tailpipes. Lol. I’d think holding on to the back of an 18 would be a somewhat quiet and easy ride in that vacuum dead air spot that is created at the back door.

    Years ago, i did my morning walk around and was some idiot sleeping on my catwalk.
    If i’d just got up and left he’d had a rough ride, although this was flatbed days, he couldvd went there i suppose.
