CLEAN IT UP TRUCKERS

[Comments] [Send Article] [Improper] It's a pretty sad state when the biggest slobs, and grungiest people in this country are our truckers. All you have to do is visit any place truckers spend time and you will see what I mean. Pee bottles everywhere, trash left behind even when 4 feet from a trash can or dumpster. I have seen drivers parked next to dumpsters throw their trash on the ground, because they are too lazy too walk to the dumpster, with the trash. Is it laziness, lack of concern for others or just attitude? There is no excuse for the way drivers conduct themselves. This is a great industry, but the idiot drivers are screwing it up for the rest of us. It's no wonder the American public has such disdain for the trucking industry. Truckers need to clean up their act and try to see if we can, bring back, what trucking once was. Our public relations, needs to rewired, but it'll take all of us doing our part to improve our relationship, with the American public. We are already paying the price for our lack of self discipline. CLEAN IT UP, TRUCKERS. It's your mess.

If you see drivers throw out trash,do like I do. Go over and pick it up and give it back to them and explain to them how those trash cans are used. Then get on the phone and call thier company and let someone there know what kind of slobs they have working for them. If enough calls come in,they will do something about it. Whining on here,the cb,or truckstop won't change a thing. There's plenty of ways to get phone# of places thanx to the internet. These guys with the straight pipes are the reason places have no jake laws in place.

Here'a novel idea. How about treating grown up's like grown up's. You know as well as I do that calling a company on a driver that leaves trash in a parking lot is not real high on there priority list. There are a lot more serious issues to deal with in this industry, and trying to police the truckstop parking lots for trash isn't one of them.
