I was traveling across the country years ago when I pulled over to rest a bit in the middle of the night. Shortly after dozing off, my 5lb chihuahua woke me, barking furiously. I looked out to see a man at my window peeking in at me. I immediately drove off and called the authorities. Thank God for my tiny terror for potentially saving my life.

To all the truckers out there, you are appreciated. You are respected and please stay safe.

[bullyboy]

How about they crack down on prostitution/human trafficking at truck stops as well?

[BigChungus]

I'm sorry what? This should be national news!

[MusicMovesMe]

This Georgia lady truck driver appreciates this news story and your support for the majority of us good people behind the wheels of 18-wheelers. Thank you.

Law Enforcement has known this for decades.

When I lived overseas.A naval intelligence officer told me that if the people living in the US knew what was really going on, you would not want to leave your house.

I attended a seminar on profiling serial killers back in the 90s when I was working on my degree. The FBI agent said back then they were tracking at least 18 different serial killers.

Just shows how many times we have come across a serial killer without knowing it.

As a trucker myself please understand there are entire orientations that teach us about how to contact “truckers against trafficking” so that we can help do our part to end sex trafficking and report suspicious activity. Most of us out here help where we can although the industry has definitely gotten worse with all the egotistical and self centered people that have been taking over, people blow past the speed limit not being safe, truckers barely look after each other anymore much less the public…

It’s so scary this hasn’t changed. Years ago, over 20, I was almost a victim of one of these killers. Thank goodness my dad was in a separate car and was watching the man when he started trying to talk to me at the rest stop. Once I got back in the car and went to get back on the highway, the trucker cut my dad off on the ramp. My dad got back behind me, and then I started hearing a noise soon after resuming driving. This was before cell phones were able to be used all across the country, so we were on 2 way radios. My dad decided he didn’t want us to stop to check out the car because we weren’t that far away from my Michigan apartment. We had to drive at least another 30 minutes, and all this happened at night by the way. When we did successfully pull into my apt parking lot, my rear driver side tire was completely flat. Then when we went to open the trunk, the whole taillight assembly fell out on one side. I was young and I didn’t realize the gravity and seriousness really of the situation, but my dad who I rarely saw tore up was really really upset by all of it. My dad had seen the man at the rest stop go out of his way to walk by and behind the car I had gotten out of. Given the flat and ripped on taillight assembly, my dad surmised the man had sabotaged my tire and yanked on the taillight so he could easily track the vehicle from behind. And once I pulled over for the flat, he could also pull over and then do whatever he was gonna do. At any rate, I still thought it couldn’t have been that until my dad called me months later and said the man was on the news being arrested for multiple homicides while driving across the country. Only then did I realize how close I had came to being abducted. The only reason my dad had followed me on that particular trip was because I had been in a car accident the week before and was in another family vehicle and my dad was just concerned about me. If I hadn’t been in that accident, I would have been driving my route by myself and I would have stopped that night. This was the only time besides my first trip to Michigan for college that I had a parent also come. I am saying out of probably 25 trips or so this was one of two trips where I wasn’t alone. I truly believe everything happens for a reason. I also believe I am here to let young women know how dangerous it can be driving by yourself.

Stricter laws for sexual assaults, molesters, rapists, bullying in schools, get rid of the backlog of untested rape kits, therapists, places for 18 year olds to live after aging out of foster care, affordable housing, education. Compassion for kids that are thrown out of their homes by parents, or kids leaving as they don't want to be assaulted by family, family members, etc.

1999 my friend Celeste fell victim. She was from CT. She was found near Virginia. They still haven't found the person who did this to her.

Imagine, CEOs making 25 million per year and we wouldn't miss them for a minute, but we WOULD miss truckers immediately. Thank you truckers.

I’m in my 60s now but when I was in my late teens early 20s I hitchhiked 39, 000 miles around the United States. I went coast to coast several times north to south borders several times and everywhere in between and I was picked up by a lot of truckers. Most seemed like really good guys, which, in reality they are.But there’s one guy that stood out that I still have uneasy feelings about to this day. There was a person in his sleeper, covered up under blankets and I rode with this guy for well over 75 miles and that person in the sleeper never even moved a muscle. Never made a sound never moved a leg nothing. at one point we were talking and I said I liked this and that for hobbies and he looked at me and he said yeah I pick up hitchhikers and hang their heads in my barn as a hobby. I laughed and he never did, and he never gave any indication that he was joking. He was a strange person and I had bad vibes from him the minute I got up in that cab. He just kept making this weird low volume sound over and over and over again under his breath as we were traveling .We pulled into a Union 76 truckstop (Old timers will remember those lol )because he was low on fuel and I got out and hung out in the truckers lounge until he left.

A few weeks ago my husband was driving home from work at around 11pm. He was on the highway and said two cars got in front of him and started driving side by side. They then moved enough for him to get through, get off the ramp, and they followed him. There’s a long open road before hitting our main road, one of the cars drove right next to my husband and one right in front. Keeping him from moving out of the way. When they reach the main road and my husband has to turn right, the car in front of him turns right first and abruptly brakes on the damn corner almost causing my husband to crash, but he avoids him, goes around and starts driving around to lose them.

He didn’t see them anymore after that, as that main road has tons of traffic, a school on the corner, a gas station a business, and close to a hospital. I’m sure they stopped following him because there was now way too many people around.

Really pissed me off. Thankfully my husband can be a reckless driver if need be and he was able to maneuver so well.

This could just have been a coincidence, but the problem is you never know.

[JPaul]

Since this is the FBI and the corporate media you have to wonder what the actual story is

My youngest is out there driving a Flatbed. I worry about him constantly. From road raging idiots to insurance scamers and just full blown nut jobs.

We have life saving truck drivers. I’m from Springfield, Missouri. My husband, at that time he worked for the RailRoad. And he was transferred to billings Montana for about six months. It was really hard on us. I made about four trips to Billings, Montana. He made more trips because he got more time off. But those trips were long and hard and I drove them. Everyone of them drove I didn’t fly. I wanted to see the scenery in the beauty of it. But I didn’t know how dangerous it was either. As I was leaving Montana in September. Just crossing the border. Without any warning. A blizzard hit. I was absolutely terrified. I could not hardly see my soul was a trucker up in front of me. And all I could see was the stack. And the black smoke coming out from the stack and I got behind that. In the truck was blowing snow all the way around me. I got close enough. Where the snow was going past me instead of hitting my windshield. Then all of a sudden I saw lights flashing behind me. I’ve almost got tears in my eyes, talking about it now. Another trucker got it Behind Me. And they kept me safe in between them too. Until we got out of the blizzard. I think God for them to this day. I was in a small Kia Sportage. And that wind was blowing so hard. But between the two of them. They called it the cradle, I was absolutely safe. God bless them truckers. For keeping people like me safe from the road. They knew I was by myself. You can tell they were talking to each other because if I got off the road a little bit that trucker would follow me and get me back in line. Who is Behind Me. God bless the truckers. They got me home safe.

Should we include cops in gang statistics?
