But the trucks, how safe are they in an accident?
Just as, if not safer, than the top of the line luxuary vehicles... The trucks may not be bullet proof like a tank or a Hum-Vee but they are built quite well...But the trucks, how safe are they in an accident?
Don't sweat the small stuff, the biggest concern you should have is, are you going to be able to support your family!

yes this is a decision my wife and I have discussed
But have you really discussed the emotional side of becoming a long hauler????yes this is a decision my wife and I have discussed
Is your spouse prepared to handle you being gone two/three weeks at a time?
Yes there is a lot more to discuss than, "I'm becoming a trucker do you think it'll be OK?!"
Ask your spouse if she fully understands the life of a long haul driver, if she says yes, you may want to discuss the life style change again and often!!!
