Title: Drivers Trucking Tips-Life As A trucker


1
Drivers Trucking Tips-Life As A Trucker
2
Keep Distance
  • Do not follow too closely behind any vehicle.
    Some seem to think theyll reach their
    destination faster if they tailgate, but in the
    end the time they save is minimal and the risk
    created for themselves is significant.

3
Stay Focused
  • The number of distractions for drivers continues
    to grow every year. Phone calls, text messages
    sometimes even the radio and other passengers
    are distractions that take a drivers focus off
    the road. Keep your attention on the road and not
    on whatevers happening in your vehicle.

4
Be flexible and patient.
  • Being a successful trucker is about more than
    just driving.  You must be professional and
    responsible whether you are behind the wheel or
    not.  When you arent driving, you must be
    respectful of the equipment and the company. 

5
Be Simple
  • Run your truck(s) in dedicated freight lanes, and
    know alternative side roads, 'so you always
    complete a profitable round as your truck pulls
    into the home terminal once more.

6
Customers are God
  • Treat every customer like a king or queen.

7
Keep an Eye on Weather
  • Watch the weather and call your delivery points
    if there are potential problems blizzards,
    flooding, hurricane, a tornado. Allow extra time
    for delivery if theres road construction too

8
Be Polite
  • Be polite to each trooper or DOT officer. Lifes
    too short to have grudges or resentments on the
    road. If theyre wrong, resolve it in court.

9
Wear Comfortable Clothing
  • "The best way to avoid health problems brought on
    by long periods of sitting is to wear loose,
    comfortable clothing and footwear," advises Franc
    Gomez.

10
Know When You're Tired
  • Stay cognizant of your fatigue level after many
    hours of nonstop driving. Accidents can be best
    avoided by this.
