I've heard some people say that truckdriving is the most dangerous job you could have. Even more dangerous than being a cop, fire-fighter, rescue-worker, etc.? I find this kind of hard to believe myself. (I know driving this big trucks can be dangerous, but not sure I'd say it was the MOST dangerous) What do you think?

While spending any amount of time on the road is dangerous - I would take it any day over Berring sea during crab season, Pac NW cutting timber or cop in Bagdad.

It's not number One most dangerous, but it is on top 10 list. From the Msn research awhile back they had that as one of the topics. Yes Loggers, Fishermen, Coal Miners, Truck drivers.

Here we go...America's Most dangerous jobs.

#1. Logging Workers

#2. Aircraft Pilots

#3. Fishers and fishing workers

#4. Structural iron and steel workers

#5. Refuse and recyclabe material collectors

#6. Farmers and Ranchers

#7. Roofers

#8. Electrial power line installers/repairers

#9. Driver/sales workers and Truck drivers

#10. Taxi drivers and Chauffeurs


Top ten list for 2005 a year old. But you get the idea pretty much =).

I took this to mean there are cops in Baghdad.

Police find 50 corpses in Baghdad

Sectarian violence is claiming dozens of victims in Baghdad daily
Police in Baghdad have recovered at least 49 bodies from the streets of the capital in the past 24 hours, an interior ministry official has said.

Police meaning cop. IME
