long time trucker here on women in trucking

Women in trucking is nothing new, they started hiring women to drive trucks back in the 1970s I met and talked and ran down the road with some of them.

Back then many of the men didn't like the idea of women taking jobs driving and even told them they belonged at home. I have seen many woman that can drive a truck as well as and even better than some men I have known.

I have always said if she can handle the job and she's a good driver then let her do it.

Good Luck to all you lady truckers.
