I gotta say, i loved watching that show, but at the same time, it only purpetuates (sp?) the idea that all truck drivers are careless, dangerous, greedy animals.
Drew getting out of his seat to get a different coffee mug was a perfect example. Guys driving tired, practically falling asleep. Why? "Gotta make some money." I dont recall any mention of hours of service.
Regardless of what you and me know about truck driving, being truck drivers, this was an insiders peek, for the 1st timne for most people, into the lives of truck drivers. It's not a stretch for people to think this is how we all are.
