I think that trucker stories are the modern equivalent of old sailor's stories

The middle of Bumfrick, Nowhere sounds like an interesting place. I wonder how so many trucking routes go through there.

"He saw a woman standing on the side of the road in a long white dress" in the middle of the night. Yeah, right, that's already a warning sign to nope the hell out of there.

Not a truck driver but went to the Texas state fair a few years ago I was driving back to Arkansas when I had an encounter with a ghost truck it passed me on the interstate and then slow down and I passed it. It went behind a semi in the right lane and I was in the right lane and then it disappeared no exits not even in the ditch just disappeared WTF.😳

Freightliners with a Detroit Engine gives a warning about collissions.
I would go under this bridge in California on the 99 near Lodi and the collission warning will always go off, eventhough I am the only driver going through.
This also happens at a particular bend on 95 South in Nevada, just north of Las Vegas.
Trainer told me that it malfunctuons at times, but I am convinced that the sensor is picking up something I cannot see.

Man i just blasted a fart and it really shook me. Snap back to reality.

The trucker seeing his doppelganger reminds me of the "It's time to make the donuts" he leaves the house passing himself, his copy saying, "I already made the donuts, " commercial.

11:02 well, the I-69 corridor in MI is a hotspot for human trafficking so…..

The mink farm thing may have been in Lebanon Oregon near highway 34. Animal rights activists snuck into the mink farm and opened all the cages. I was working in Tangent Oregon on swing shift so had to drive that route home at 1:00 am. There were thousands of eyes glowing out in the fields and it took a few days for me to find out they were the mink.

11:09 That's Steve Hofstetter's infamous story. He's pretty funny, but that story is freaking scary.

On this very night, ten years ago, along this same stretch of road in a dense fog just like this. I saw the worst accident I ever seen. There was this sound, like a garbage truck dropped off the Empire State Building.

When you hear the area that you just moved into mentioned...

6:00 the Pete in Duel was a needle nose I believe

My dad is a former long haul trucker.
The weirdest thing he's seen on the road was a dude taking a crap in the middle of a dirt road.
Yes you read that correctly.

Edit: To clarify he was delivering a load to a factory in the mountains, and he had to drive on a (wide) dirt road for a bit to get to the docking point. I live in the USA, it's pretty common for semi trucks to do that here.

when one of the stories mentions your town: o_o

I saw the cult like robes one day in Salem mass. I had pulled over to sleep on the highway in my truck on i90E. I heard humming and I went to investigate. I saw a bunch of people in white robes all in the forest holding candles.

[randomweirdo]

Ok not a trucker but one time I saw a trucker driving a truck down the road. As you can imagine I was terrified and am in therapy to cope with the situation.

P.s. Meant as a joke...
